The Swaim family arived in the US from Leerdam, Holland and settled on Staten Island. They were part of the original settlers of Staten Island. Three children came with tme family, Barent, Beleytje and Anthony. Barent and Belytje were children by Thys first wife Peterke jans. Anthony was the son of Sytje. They came to the US aboard the "De St. Jan Baptist" May 9 1661. You'll notice that the surname changed. The story is that the family were protestors. They were working secretly and took the name name Swaim, which stood for "S Working Against I Monarchs." As this was activity was frowned upon by those in power nothing was written. This was is probably just an oral family tradition that may or may not even been true. And of course they were dutch and would not have used English. What were the Dutch words? And would they still have the same first initials? More likely just a coincidence discovered after they arrived.

Swaim-Tysen Family, Mullane, Joseph F.
pg 1. Thys Barentsen's name is a prime example of patronymics in that in translation it means he is "Thys", son of Barent, thus becoming "Thys Barentsen". The last name will also be found to be written as "Barentsz", the "sz" in Dutch meaning "son of". The name of Thys, Tys, ets., is Dutch for Matthew. It also has another meaning that is unknown at this time. Through the use of patronymics the name "Tysen-Tyson" came into being, i.e. Johannis Tysen, the Tysen having been carried forward by one branch of the family. It is apparent, in reading the 1706 Census of Staten Island, that the British, in requiring a surname, the family name of Swaim/Sweem was given and was written as "Swam" and in one instance as "Swain".Dr. Kenn Stryker-Rodda, noted historian and genealogist, had done some research into the Swaim family due to Mrs. Stryker-Rodda being a descendant. His research is contained in his limited edition booklet entitled "A Staten Island Lineage". A copy is on file in the archives of the Staten Island Historical Society. Dr. Stryker-Rodda has stated that the Dutch used "ee" to represent a "long a", with the English achieving tyhe very same result by the use of "ai", thus the Dutch spelling would be as "SWEEM" while the English spelling would be "SWAIM". Therefore, the name was then pronounced as though it was written as "SWAYM".
The name "SWAIM" a researcher found a reference in which it was stated that the translation of the name means "Dweller at the sign of the Swan".

[HSYB-1902]3. Swaim-Tysen Family, Mullane, Joseph F.
pg 1. Thys Barentsen's name is a prime example of patronymics in that in translation it means he is "Thys", son of Barent, thus becoming "Thys Barentsen". The last name will also be found to be written as "Barentsz", the "sz" in Dutch meaning "son of". The name of Thys, Tys, ets., is Dutch for Matthew.
It also has another meaning that is unknown at this time.
Through the use of patronymics the name "Tysen-Tyson" came into being, i.e. Johannis Tysen, the Tysen having been carried forward by one branch of the family. It is apparent, in reading the 1706 Census of Staten Island, that the British, in requiring a surname, the family name of Swaim/Sweem was given and was written as "Swam" and in one instance as "Swain".Dr. Kenn Stryker-Rodda, noted historian and genealogist, had done dome research into the Swaim family due to Mrs.
Stryker-Rodda being a descendant. His research is contained in his limited edition booklet entitled "A Staten Island Lineage".
A copy is on file in the archives of the Staten Island Historical Society. Dr.
Stryker-Rodda has stated that the Dutch used "ee" to represent a "long a", with the English achieving tyhe very same result by the use of "ai", thus the Dutch spelling would be as "SWEEM" while the English spelling would be "SWAIM".
Therefore, the name was then pronounced as though it was written as "SWAYM".
The name "SWAIM" a researcher found a reference in which it was stated that the translation of the name means "Dweller at the sign of the Swan".pg 8- 1661, 22 Aug. 19 names of persons who asked for lots on Staten Island, N Y, included Tys Barentsen from Leerdame. [DOHNY 13:206]. About 22 lots

Genealogical and Family History of Southern New York & the Hudson River Valley - Volume I pg 68. The original settler of the Van Buren family did not bear the name Van Buren. It was not the custom, when he came to America, 1631, for Netherlanders to have a family name, except in rare cases. The Dutch of New Netherland, after the succession of the English in 1664, began to adopt family surnames, generally take the name of the place from which they or their parents emigrated in Holland, using the profix "Van", which is Dutch for of or from. Thus it was, no doubt, with the second generation of the Van Buren family in America, the father of whom was Cornelis Maessen, "Maes" or "Maas", being the Christian name of his father, the suffix "sen" or "se" signifying son.
