Biography

Birth

Guysbert Rosa is estimated to have been born ca 1670 or later in Horle|Hurley, Ulster County, Province of New York. Date estimate is based on his recorded marriage in 1695. First marriages generally occurred before age 25 in rural farming communities. It should be noted that Kingston RDC records were sparse for year 1670 with only 4 baptisms found performed by Domine Samuel Drisius, of New York and recorded by William de la Montagne.. This is unlike succeeding years. The early years of the Kingston RDC had spotty domine coverage with insufficient domine staff to cover distant communities like Horle. Alternatively there was record loss.

Profile Roosa-455 had a birth on 17 Oct 1676 in Hurley, Ulster, New York. No source for this was identified.

Research Notes

LNAB

Death

I removed death date of 2 Jan 1709. No basis, and inconsistent with records. Smith-62120 13:58, 25 September 2022 (UTC)

His death occurred after 31 Mar 1745 when he was the baptismal sponsor for grandson Gysbert, son of Jan and Eva and possibly after Mar 1746 which is the last occurrence of Gysbert Roosa (whose wife was Rachel Klaarwater) as Gysbert, junior in the church records.

Rosa-334 and Roosa-455 appear to represent the same person because: Same spouse, same children. The 1676 birthdate on Roosa-455 isn't sourced, but I think it's possibly more credible than 1670, given the spacing of the other children in this family.
