From Harold Lansing :

I think an incorrect mother (Rachel Van Tienhoven), is listed in your biography narrative, The New Amsterdam birth record, for Jonathon is incorrect.

1651 Mar 26; David Provoost; Jonathan; Rachel Van Tienhoven Maybe it only lists the father and her as a witness. If so its a trap.

The list of NA birth records, shows her married to ( Johannes du Mortier) in many other places.

Thanks Skeeter
