Biography

Thomas Cornell and Annatje Wiltsie had children baptized in Jamaica, Queens County, New York, which was New Amsterdam at the time. The records are written in Dutch, recorded in the Dutch Reformed Church of Jamaica:

• Jan 12 apr 1724^[1]
• Jan 29 may 1726^[2]
• Anatie 7 apr 1728^[3]
• Thomas 24 may 1730^[4]
• Elizabeth 29 jun 1733^[5]
• Catiena 5 oct 1735^[6]
• Hendrick 3 apr 1738^[7]

NOTE: Jerome Wiltsie's book reports that Mary Cornell was baptized 9 oct 1721. The Dutch Reformed Church shows a Marytie baptized to Jan Cornell and Anatie on 1 dec 1721.^[8] This may be a scribal error, or it may be that a second Cornell family was living there at the time. In favor of the scribal error is that the witness matches that of some of the other Cornell children's baptism.
