General Notes (Wife)

---

This is the usual spelling of her name, from records. Her parentage is uncertain. It is clear that she was German. It is generally believed that her father was Nicholas Cramer, one of the very intense, Mennonite/ Quaker/ once radically Anabaptist like the Dehavens group, closely interrelated and inbred, from several villages near Muelheim, Germany, who were initial settlers of Germantown. It is not impossible that the name is the phonetic in someone's mind spelling of something else or a simplification of another German name (Nicholas Cramer and his fellows were actually part Dutch), like Crambert. Though GErmans in that area didn't usually mess with their names; that usually happened at Staten Island.
The descendants of William I (on the Dehaven descendancy chart) are not MORE nuts than other Dehavens, but have mental health problems and a very intense , high-strung, distrustful personality with particular consistency matched only by descendants of those Dehavens who married Op Den Graef. (William's father, Peter I, one of several sons of the emigrant Dehaven and born in Germany, married a daughter of the other crank; Levering. Most Dehavens are descended from either Levering or Opden Graef, particularly those who keep track of their ancestry.)
