Here are the supposed parents of Dorothea Volkerts Douw:
Volckert Jansen Douw (abt. 1610 - 1683) and Dorothea Janse Breestede (abt. 1625 - 1661), married 19 Apr 1650 in New Amsterdam, NY
Volckert does have a child Dorothea Volckertse Douw listed in the bio, so that may be the original source of the assumption that this Dorothea is the same girl.
I am not sure if we have WikiTree profiles for any of those people, but we probably do, somewhere in Dutch Roots.
I did find those parents right away in a Google search, so I am going to go ahead and connect them.
