General Notes (Husband)
"Elias and CAtherine lived on Simon's farm [in Brooklyn] for awhile. He built a house on is father's farm, located on the bay, where he with his family lived almost ten years, until 1710. Then to Six Mile Run, Monmouth NJ. By looking at their children baptism locations we see they were in NY, Flatbush, Six Mile Run Nj and Freehold. They were among the earliest pioneers in this district, and were members of the Six Mile Run Reformed Church.
Some on the Dehart list at Rootsweb have found evidence that he and some of his other sons did live in what became Berks County, PA for a time (at the time the parts of it where they were were Montgomery and Philadelphia Counties)
Their sons were among the lst settlers of the portion of PA that became Berks Co. Elias bough 600 acres of land in what was later called AMitiy TWP in 1729. Elias and Simon were among the six taxables in the TWP bef 1734. Gilbert held 100 acres in Amity TWP by warantee. His land was then surveyed in 1737. Elias adm'd the estate of Aaron who d ...1739. In 1742, Elias and his wife Catharine dold about 300 acres to Gilbert. They are said to have moved with the DAniel Boone party south. Some resided in Spartanburg. Elias died there leaving a son Elias to carry on the name.
His children among the first settlers of what became Berks Co. Linda Demko has it broken down as follows: Elias bought 600 acres of land i Amity in 1729. Elias and Simon who was not Elias' brother were among six taxables in Amity before 1734, even though Simon Jr not born until 1728. (and is supposed to have settled in Ohio and not Spartanburg) Another odd thing about Simon - his wife's name was Mary in 1745 when he sold land to Gilbert. Simon jr m Rachel, and Simon sr m Eleyson. Also, Elias Simon himself with Catherine must have gone to Amity, since that couple sold 300 acres to Gilbert in 1742, before going south, possibly with Daniel Boone and poss. to Spartanburg. I don't have Elias jr's wife. Gilbert held 100 acres in Amity by warrantee, which was subsqu surveyed in 1737. Elias adm'd the estate of Aaron who d 4/25/1739. In 1742 "Elias and his wife Catharine" sold about 300 acres to Gilbert. They then are said to have moved with the Daniel Boone party south. Some residedin Spartanburg, SC. There Elias' son Elias lived. Gilert and Smon signed the petition to form Amity twp in 1744. Gilbert d 1754, two sons, Samuel and William got the farm, dau's Catharine, Sarah, Elizabeth and Mary, his widow E. Reed and sister Charity. (Gilbert would be Geisbert.) Gilbert must have ended up with 700 acres. Linda has it as passing to his two sons, William and Samuel, and as passing directly from Gilbert to Cornelius. c 3/21/1677 Brooklyn m Catharine Lane
General Notes (Wife)
Her Lane line is descended from one of two emigrant brothers from HOlland; the other took the name Van Pelt and founded the prominent southern New York Van Pelt family. Her surname is Lane or Lanen; some people get confused and think her name was Van Pelt.
Ancestral File: Elijas b 3/21/1677 m Catalina Van Pelt - this is confused. Deborah Clear has the following on the Lanes and Van Pelt's; Two brothers, Teunis Janszen Van Pelt and Mattys Janszen Lanen Van Pelt came to New Netherland in 1663 on ship "Rosetree", with wives and children. Most descendants of Teunis called Van Pelt, most descendants of Mattys called Lane. Teunis = Tony, Anthony. Tys = Mattys = Matthew or Matt.
Gysbert Thyssen Lane eldest son of Mattys m Jannetje, dau of Adriaen Lamberts (Smith) in 1672, Long Island. Gysbert and Jannetje moved to Monmouth Co NJ bef 1709. Their c's:
Adrian Lane Mayken/ Moika Lane m l Stoefeel Langestraet 2 Theophilus Longstreet
Willemptje Lane m Willem Hendrickszen Mattys Lane d young
Catalyntje Lane m Elias Dehart Mathys m l Anna Schenck and 2 John Gordon
Mary m Ferdinand Van Sicklen
Jannefje m Jacobus Swart Joost (was blind)
In the will of Gisbert Lane of Middletown, Monmouth Co, NJ, dated7 Nov 1720, proved 17 May 1727, she is called Catherine Dehart.
