Biography

"Based on the large amount of indirect evidence that indicates a tight relationship between the Schepmoes-Cooke clan and the Obes, which is laid out throughout this paper, Aeltje (Claes) Obe does appear to be the daughter of Claes Sybrantsen [de Veringh] and Marritje Pieters. This would make Jan Jansen Schepmoes, husband of Sara Pieters, her guardian and possibly her maternal uncle. Future research in the Netherlands might shed light on that issue. Sara Pieters had a sister (or perhaps a sister-in-law) named Lysbet Pieters.295 If she also had a sister called Margariet or Marritje, it would corroborate Aeltje's proposed parentage."^[1]

Sara's Dutch marriage record indicates that she had a sister called Lysbeth.

"There were three sisters named Pieters from Hoorn: Sara, wife of Jan Janszen Schepmoes from Delft; Elizabeth, wife of Dirck Mayers from Hoorn; and Marietje. (...) Details (...) are mainly based on part of unpub. Mss. captioned "Colonists from Hoorn," by William J. Hoffman, in library of New York Genealogical & Biographical Soc."
