Research Notes

This is the profile of Geertrui (Buys) Van Valkenburgh (1757-), who married Lambartus Bartholomew Van Valkenburgh (1755-1849), son of Jacobus Van Valkenburgh (1721-1814) and Catalyntje (Scherp) Van Valkenburgh (bef.1718-). [1]

There had been some confusion between this Gertrude and Gertrude (Sharp, Scherp) Van Valkenburgh (abt.1771-), who married Joachem Van Valkenburgh, son of Petrus and Mary (Upham) Van Valkenburgh. [2]

We believe this to be the correct interpretation.

Sharp-5020 and Buys-578 appear to represent the same person because: If merging of spouse Bartholomews is correct then these need merging too. Buys appears to be correct last name at birth.

Buys-578 and Sharp-5020 do not represent the same person because: These are two different women, both married to Van Valkenburgs. Some of the entries in their profiles were with the wrong person.

Gertrude (Sharp, Scherp) Van Valkenburgh (abt.1753-), married Joachem Van Valkenburgh, son of Petrus and Mary (Upham) Van Valkenburgh.

Geertrui (Buys) Van Valkenburgh (1757-), married Lambartus Bartholomew Van Valkenburgh (1755-1849), son of Jacob and Catalyna or Catleyntje (Scherp) Van Valkenburgh.

See The National Association of the Van Valkenburg(h) Family, Descendants of Andries Van Valkenburg, entry for Lambert Bartholomew Van Valkenburg (https://navvf.org/VVgene/pafg25.htm#7472) and for Jochem Van Valkenburg (https://navvf.org/VVgene/pafg34.htm#16954)

Thank you for researching, identifying, and clarifying Gertrude Sharp.

NP.

On a related topic, you are correct about the duplicate Bartholomew Van Vs. I have approved the merge from one side. The other profile is managed by the New Netherlands Settlers Project, so it needs to be approved by them. They are typically very thorough and quite prompt.

Buis-131 and Buys-578 appear to represent the same person because: Same birth date. Same parents. Assuming clear duplicate. Based on parents, assuming Buys is best spelling of last name.
