Biography
Maria was a daughter of Bernardus Swartwout and Margrietje Decker. She was baptized in a Reformed Dutch Church in the Minisink Valley on 1 November 1747. She may be the same child named Maria who had been baptized there on 18 July 1741, or the child baptized in 1741 may be an older sister who died young. This uncertainty is due to an unusual situation in the church. Johannes Carparus Fryenmoet, the first settled pastor of the Minisink congregations, began recording baptisms in the Minisink-Machackemeck churches in June 1741, not long after he was ordained by Rev. Peter Henry Dorsius. The validity of his ordination was called into question, and in the fall of 1742 it was learned that Rev. Dorsius had not been authorized to ordain a minister. Accordingly, the baptisms that Rev. Fryenmoet had administered earlier were deemed invalid. Some of the children he had baptized may have been rebaptized later.[1]
