Biography

Mary Brink was born in New York Colony, presumably in or around Minisink, Orange County, at or shortly before her baptism, 27 Mar 1752.^[1] She was the daughter of Mattheus Brink and Abigail Bell.^[1]

Notes

The profile manager assumes the subject of this profile is the person who married Daniel Van Etten and died in Trumbull County, Ohio, 17 Feb 1815, at age 73, i.e., meaning she was born about 1742, and is buried there in Pricetown Cemetery.^[2] It may be so. But the Mary who was the daughter of Mattheus Brink and Abigail Bell was baptized in 1752, suggesting a birth about that year.
