Note that Alberts-510 has a baptismal date that is correct; she was baptized with the Alberts surname. This was prior to the arrival of Albert Alberts, so at the time the surname variation was not an issue. See the NYGB Record April 2017: Volume 148, issue 2, page 98 footnote for details on this. The New Netherland group will need to decide on the LNAB for the merged profile. It is unclear whether Elbert Elberts was styled Stoothoff prior to the arrival of Albert Alberts, so either Alberts or Elberts seem most appropriate.
