Biography

Hendrick Ostrander was born in Hurley, Ulster County, New York.^[1] According to Ostrander: A Genealogical Record, he was born on 18 September 1693.^[2] He was a son of Pieter Pietersen (Ostrander) and Rebecca Traphagen. No baptismal record has been found, possibly because there are no surviving baptism records from the Kingston (New York) Reformed Dutch Church dating to the period between 15 August and 5 November 1693.

The marriage of Hendrik Oostrander to Ellisabeth Wamboom (Van Bommel) was recorded on 12 May 1724 in the Reformed Dutch Church of Kingston, New York. Banns had been registered on 19 April.^[1][3]

A family Bible belonging to Hendrick Ostrander is a source for records of the births of his children and several generations of descendants.^[4] He wrote in the Bible, "I, Henricus Oostrander, hort det bock toi yek desem Beybel go kogt van Derick Schepmoes vur 4 pont 6 Schnelnum den 22 desember ent jaar 1722" ("I, Henricus Oostrander, bought this Bible from Derick Schepmoes for 4.6 shillings on 22 December 1722"). Data was copied from the Bible by Nathaniel J. Ostrander, a descendant of Hendrick Ostrander and Elisabeth Van Bommel, in 1892.^[3]

Children of Hendrick Ostrander and Elisabeth Van Bommel were:^[5]

1. Petrus, baptized 7 February 1725.^[6]
2. Deborah, born 18 September 1726. Baptized 25 September 1726 in the Reformed Dutch Church in Kingston (Ulster County), New York. The record of her baptism gives her name as Debora and identifies her parents as Hendrik Oostrander and Elisabeth Wamboom. Witnesses were Pieter Wamboom and Debora Wamboom.^[7]
3. Rebecca, born Hurley, New York.
4. Gideon, born 13 December 1730.
5. Wilhelmus, baptized in Kingston 19 November 1732. Died young.
6. Marcus Jacobus, born 3 December 1735.
7. Christoffel, born 22 September 1737.
8. Jonathan, born 19 October 1740.
9. Wilhelmus, born 28 April 1743.
10. David, born 20 April 1746.
11. David, born 21 January 1751.

An additional child named Maria is listed on page 456 of Ostrander: A Genealogical Record, but an erratum on page 775 states that this is incorrect and that Hendrick had no child named Maria.

Henerik Ostrander and wife Elizabeth Van Bommele became members of the church at New Paltz, New York, on 21 April 1764, with letters from Kingston.^[8]
