Biography

Adrian Hoogland of Bloomingdale, N.Y., born 1699, who names his eldest daughter Neeltie, and his second son William, was the son of Willem and Neeltie, and named after Adrian Ryerse. And if this is correct, then Willem Hoogland and Hendrick Hoogland married sisters. But all this needs confirmation."[1]

The above which is sourced from the Hoagland book, continues page 168:

That Adrian Hoogland named his eldest daughter after his mother, makes it probable that his eldest son Benjamin was named after his wife's father. Such was the usage. This and other considerations render it quite certain that said Adrian married a daughter of Benjamin Vandewater and Engeltie Harmans, of Brooklyn, whose son Harman, born 1695, was doubt- less the Harman Vandewater who was partner with Adrian Hoogland (his brother-in-law) in the purchase of the De Kay farm at Bloomingdale.

Hence, too, Adrian properly named his second daughter Engeltie, after his wife's mother. [2] [3]

I'm trying to locate some lost Hoaglands. This refers to his eldest son Benjamin but does not list him as a child in the list of children. My GGGG whatever was Benjamin Hoagland, born in 1766. I believe that the sons of Johannes Dirckszen Hooglandt, who had a son named Benjamin as well, may help me move a little bit closer to making the final connection.

You are on a good track for finding this ancestor of yours. The Dutch practice of naming the oldest children for the children's grandparents does make it very likely that if this man had a son Benjamin, that son had at least one grandson (and probably more than one) named Benjamin Hoogland/Hoagland/etc. It's also possible that there are nephews named for their uncle Benjamin.

The absence of a child's name from the top of a profile means that the child has no profile (or maybe they have a profile that hasn't been connected to the parents), and the lack of a profile for a child often simply means that no one has created a profile for that child yet. However, before we create new profiles for "missing" children, it's best (albeit not officially required) to have evidence for the child's existence, their relationship to their supposed parents, the child's birth date, and their LNAB. This profile is currently deficient in sources for all of these details. I guess that the names of the children are from the Hoagland genealogy (apparently published in 1891) that is cited here as a source (but with an Internet link that is dead).

The first step before adding Benjamin and his purported siblings to WikiTree should be to find the source for the information about them. If the source turns out to be the Hoagland genealogy, that publication should be evaluated to assess its credibility (where did the author get his data?) -- even better, find the information in a source like a church record or a will.

The cited source, History and Genealogy of The Hoagland Family in America, seems to have been well-received at its publication as an exemplary family genealogy (for 1891, at least), so it looks like a very good resource. The WikiTree page for this book lists several places to find it online. This man's son Benjamin shows up on page 191 of the book.

Thank you. I actually found my missing Benjamin on Familysearch.com but I'm reading through the History and Genealogy of the Houglands. Thanks for the refence. I've forgotten about archive. org. :)

Page 179 lists the correct date of birth of 1776 for my Benjmain. I need to re-read and digest all of this while having morning coffee and pull up my records as I'm mixing families in my comments here. :(

Edited: FOURTH time. :(

Wil recommend Bernard Bailyn : The Barbarous Years 1600-1675 "The People of British North America: The conflict of Civilizations.ISBN 978-0-375-70346-1. A large chapter about the Dutch Farrogo, a long history about when Dutch people were a part of New Amsterdam's history.
Good-day, I am Dutch, born 1944, living in Sweden. My Heritage nr 411, I have also a little text on Wiki tree.

My mothers mom, =my oma was Trijntje Hoogland-Smit. If you are interested you can ask me if you want to see my site. In mothers background I came to the year 1350 is 18 steps D.F., in Marum/Niebert in the province Groningen. Even connected to "Beetke van Rasquert". (You can google a lot)

The names on the road are through my oma Smit, Akkerman ...Pebes... Haetjes, Wijmers all the way down to Pebe Haetjes 1350! Hoogland people were merchants, seaman, some on the trail to East-Indies (indonesië), "Oost-indische Company". The West-Indische Company, the commerce on New-Amsterdam.

Per Barnett Schecter, The Battle of New York, p 79 "... the Bloomingdale Road ended abruptly on the farm of Adrian Hoaglandt." Today Broadway and 108th St. East of his farm was Benjamin Vandewater's.
Adrian may have descent from one of these New Netherland ancestral lines
