Note on Place Names
Some contributions to this profile have indicated her birthplace or baptism place as "Deer Park, New York." Machackemeck is now called Deerpark, but at the time of her birth the "Deerpark" name was not in use. The New York place named Deer Park is entirely different, it is on Long Island.

1) Reject the merge: I can not find a connection between (Kool-395) and (Rosencarns-88) no wedding and not in her will
2) remove (Cole-14768) as a wife of Rosenkrans-88
3) merge the children Katharine Rosencrans-start (Rosencrans-98) and Cacharine Rosencrans (Rosencrans-181) and set (Kool-395) as mother, add will of (Kool-395) as a source for the remaining profile

We have multiple women with the same name. Spellings were not standardized in those days, and Catryntje, Catharina, Catharine, occasionally Catherine, and other similar names are all seen in records as variant spellings of the same name. Similarly, Kool, Cool, and Cole were all variant spellings of the same name -- all of those spellings were pronounced like "Cole" is pronounced in modern English.
Name spellings are not a valid basis for distinguishing different individuals in this time and place. And in perusing these families, I have yet to see evidence that supports a conclusion as to which Cath. Cool married which husband or pair of husbands. The current assignment of husbands looks like I could be nothing more than some arbitrary guesses.
