Misc.

  • DIRCK (RICHARD) bp. 4-25-1696 in the Reformed Dutch Church in Brooklyn, L.I. (M-11,I,79). Bergen (L-20) states that Dirck m. Jonica (Jane) and was probably dead at the time of his father's will (1739) but upon what grounds is not apparent. It seems more likely that this is the "Richard of Shrewsbury" who wrote will #2659M, dated 12-23-1759, proved 4-18-1761. The descendants who supplied data for Ogden (L-6), if they were well informed, made this identification. Richard, in his will, refers to his wife "my well-adored Alice". She seems to have been dau. of Samuel Osborn (1680-1754) of Shrewsbury, whose will #2307M, dated 3-21-1754, names his fourth child as "Alice Longstreet". Richard also refers to a plantation at Manasquan which his father "bought of John West and by his will gave to me" (Will #1001M). Richard named as his children: eldest son then living, Samuel; two younger sons, Awrey and Richard; three older daughters, viz. Catherine, Moica and Mary; daughters Alice and Ann; two grand-daughters by eldest son Stophel deceased, viz. Catherine and Alice. The Second Book of Shrewsbury Friends Record, under date of "1767, 9, 12 mo" lists as witnesses at a wedding in Manasquan what are probably four of the above children, viz. Anne, Else, Catherine, Samuel. The order of birth of Richard's children is not established by baptismal records (save for the last two which are to be found in the Parish Record of Christ Church in Shrewsbury.) 24. Catherine 25. Moica b. ca. 1730 26. Stophel 27. Samuel 28. Mary 29. Awrey 30. Alice (perhaps b. 1-13-1742) 31. Richard bp. 12-13-1745, aged 3 mos. 32. Anne bp. 6-17-1748, aged 2 weeks, 3 daysLess.

After looking at the discrepancy for the son Richard (1745) being related to Richard (1696) and further reading, the lineage is missing a child or nephew of Richard (1696) who would be the correct father for Richard (1745). Richard (1745) is the landowner of the property from Manasquan. Richard (1696) lists in hiw will "bought of John West and by his will gave to me" (Will #1001M). The Second Book of Shrewsbury Friends Record, under date of "1767, 9, 12 mo" lists as witnesses at a wedding in Manasquan what are probably four of the above children, viz. Anne, Else, Catherine, Samuel.

In the light of such data as we now have, it seems likely that this "Richard" is a grandson of Dirck by his son Stoffel, and the author of will #2659M Until certain, I have listed Richard (1645) with a father who's name is "Unknown".
