Can Willem and Apollonia be the same person?

Question

The original source on this profile was (2) The Rosenkrans family in Europe and America, which I expanded on and added more sources, but for those parents Willem is on the church record not Apollonia. Could they still be the same person?

Answer 1

Is there any proof that Apollonia exists at all? The NJGS says that she died young. http://njgsbc.org/files/BCFamilies/BCFam-Rosencrantz.pdf Maybe she's just an assumed child based on her maternal grandmother's name, Apollonia Barents?

According to the Brouwer Genealogy Database  http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~brouwergenealogydata/p568.htm#i50991 she's mentioned in the article "Dr. Kenneth Scott, "The Vredenburg Family", New York Genealogical & Biographical Record Vol.95, pp.79-86 (1964): p.85. Hereinafter cited as "NYG&BR 95:79-86." ?

Comments

There is a marriage record on that profile for an Apollonia Rosencranz (Roosekrans), but it doesn't mention parents.

Oh, her baptism date is recorded wrong somewhere. She's here on 31 Oct 1697 https://archive.org/stream/baptismalmarriag00king#page/50/mode/2up
