The following charts illustrate the extensive cousin intermarriage among the ancestors of Annatje Eckerson (born 20 October 1787 Schoharie Co., New York). Links on ancestors in the second chart (showing ancestors of Annatje Eckerson's mother, Geertruid Becker), go to earlier appearances of the same individuals in the first chart (which shows ancestors of Annatje Eckerson's father, John Eckerson). The names of Albert Andriesse Bradt de Noorman and his wife Annatje Barentse van Rotmerz, which appear twice in both charts, are capitalized (the fourth chart takes the opposite point of view, so that Annatje Eckerson appears four times as a descendent of this couple). The third chart shows the descent of James Nohl Churchyard from Annatje Eckerson.
Comments, corrections, and additions welcomed!
Note that the first two charts are 132 columns in width. Some browsers may display these charts better if the obsolescent HTML <LISTING> construct is used; a file with alternative versions of these charts with <LISTING> is available for this purtpose.
