Adriaen Pietersen Van Woggleum

"The Easy-Going Van Woggelums", by George E. McCracken, Ph.D., The American Genealogist, Vol., 32 No 4, pg 204.  October 1956.

"Nothing is known of Adriaen than his first name which was derived from the patronym of his sons, and was probably a resident of the village of Woggelum near Alkmaar in North Holland. No record of him has been found on this continent and he undoubtedly died in the Netherlands. It may be that he resided for a time at Utracht, since one of his sons is sometimes called van Utrecht", according to McCracken.

"Dutch Systems in Family Naming:  New York and New Jersey", National Genealogical Society Quarterly, Vol. 41, pg 118, Dec 1953, says "one Branch of Wogloms is believed to have used the form Wakely, which would seem to be an English corruption of the Dutch pronunciation".

SON - Jacob Adriaense. Jacob was recorded 3 May 1655 - 20 Aug 1659 and called at times Jacob Adriaense van Utrecht Jacob was an innkeeper at Beverwyck.

Pieter Adriaense Soegemakelyk Van Woggleum

Woggelum/Wogglom ultimately won the day. McCracken says he has not found any descendants bearing the surname derived from Mackelick.

New York State Library, Van Rensseiner Bowler Manuscripts, 1908, pg 846 says "Pieter Ardriaensz was one of the tavern keepers in Reneselnerswyck whom the director general and council in 1656 ordered to be arrested and sent to New Amsterdam for refusing to pay the excise."
