Notes for JACOP BARENTZEN KOOL: RECORDS OF THE DUTCH REFORMED CHRUCH ULSTER CO NY.

The Early Germans of New Jersey; Their History, Churches and Genealogies COOLS FROM HOLLAND. BARENT JACOBSEN KOOL, in 16****3, was in New Amsterdam in the employ of the West India Company. The genealogy of this family was prepared and publisbed, New York, 1876, by Rev. David Cole, D.D. It contains all of the family with the exception of that brauch, which came to Readington from Kingston. We therefore give the latter here. Barent's family was one of five families living, 8 June 1633, on Bridge street, New Amsterdam. He married Marretje L****enderts and had children:

a descendant

I added the source to his profile. I also, added all the info to his father's profile since it mostly pertains to him.
Cool-72 and Kool-12 appear to represent the same person because: Hi,

These are the same and can be merged , thanks :)

This was no son of Cornelis Lamberts Cool (he had no son named Jacob so it looks more like he was supposed to be a son of Barent Cool and Marretje Leenderts de Grauw .

So to correct things I propose we merge him into Jacob Barents Kool

He now is removed as son of Cornelis Lamberts Cool, who for sure was not his father and attached to parents Barent and Marretje .

Cool-99 and Kool-12 appear to represent the same person because:

Hi, These are the same and can be merged, no conflicts , thanks !

In the Bio of Cornelis Lamberts Cool, I mean there were two sources mentioning just three children Aeltje , Aechtje and Lambert.

So now I have those four connected to the Unknown mother and the ones , like this Jacob , because we are not sure if these were or were not children of Cornelis , without mother.

We now have to search for or check some of the sources that are added here and to the other profiles , to see who where the parents of these profiles.

Bea when you say mentioned do you mean in the Bio or elsewhere?
Corrected mother for him, and we need to check where he belongs since there was no child named Jacob mentioned as son of Cornelis .

Mother can't be Aeltje since they didn't marry until 1638. Kool children are from Jacobs first marriage.
Removed spouse (Groot) as there's no source for her and think it's a wrong attacment.
Michelle, this will now be fine to merge, after you remove the temporary PPP please.
