Research Notes

This profile stated as of 3/28/2021 that Johann Weatherwax and Elsje Van Alen were married before 1791

Children:
  1. Annatje bo. 16 Jul 1791, bp. 28 Aug 1791
  2. Harry bo. 18 May 1798, bp. 15 Jul 1798
  3. John bo. 28 Aug 1796, bp. 22 Oct 1796
  4. Peter bo. 21 Sep 1793, bp. 20 Oct 1793

These are presumably the children of another man, since this one was dead before these births.

After spending some time with this family, I believe that the father of Elsje Van Alen’s children above was this Sebastian rather than the one above, not least because the profile here has him dead for two years before the first birth.

Weatherwax-100 and Wiederwachs-19 appear to represent the same person because: Clear duplicate. Merge into Wiederwachs-19 as correct last name at birth.
