Biography

Margriet Chambers (also Sammers), daughter of Jan Chambers and Cornelia Van Aken, was christened on 25 Sep 1698 in Kingston, Ulster County, New York Colony.[1]

She married Thomas VAN DER MERKEN on 17 Jun 1726 at Kingston, Ulster County, NY; children (bp. Kingston; surname VAN DER MERKEN):[2][3]

  1. Sara Vandermark (1727-)[4]
  2. Cornelia Vandermark (1728-)[5]
  3. Catrina (Vandermark) Smith (1734-bef.1774)[6]
  4. Elias Vandermark (1738-)[7]
  5. Elizabeth Vandermark (1740-)[8]
  6. Helena Vandermark (1743-)[9]

On 30 Apr 1738 at Kingston, Ulster County, NY, Margriet and Thomas witnessed the batpism of Ritsert, s/o Ritsert Lonsberg and Elisabeth Sammers.[10]

In 1767-1768, Margriet and Thomas Van Der Marken, and daughter Elisabeth, were listed in the membership records for the Stone Ridge church in Marbletown, Ulster, New York.[11]

Margriet may have had an illegitimate son Ephraim Chambers (bef.1717-).[12]

Chambers-141 and Chambers-57 appear to represent the same person because: both profiles give the same baptism record as a source. Hoes lists the baptism of Margriet, her marriage to Thomas van de Mark, and baptisms of their seven children along with an illegitimate son of Margriet. There is, however, no record of Margriet having married Richard Lounsbury nor mention of that marriage in the Lounsbury genealogy by McDonald (source for Chambers-57). It was likely Margriet's sister Lysbet who married Richard Lounsbury in 1734.

Given the total lack of data for Richard Lounsbury-345, he should probably be detached from Margriet and merged with Richard Lounsbury-302 (husband of Lybet Chambers).
