Here you will find copies of Wynkoop family bible records and family registers. These are a vastly overlooked source of important family information. Witness the records of Judge Henry Wynkoop and Cornelius Wynkoop. In addition to the details of their family lives, the births, marriages and deaths that each family experienced, we also learn something of the writer's history and in Judge Henry's case, we learn something about Cornelis Evertsz. Wijnkoop's early years in New Netherland as well. For the family historian this information is priceless and almost impossible to come by any other way. I'm interested in publishing as many bible records here as I can find. If you have a family bible record that you would like to share, or know of one that might be available, please feel free to contact me at [email protected]. On a personal basis, I'm trying to track down Garret Wynkoop's family bible record. He was the 3rd son of Cornelius Evertsz. Wijnkoop and Maria Jans van Langedyck. In his last will and testament, he willed it to his son, Cornelius Wynkoop of Bucks County, Pennsylvania. If this bible record still exists it should contain the actual birthdate of Garret himself, and maybe, just maybe, the birthdates of his parents and siblings. If you know anything about this precious family record please get in touch with me at the above E-mail address. In the meantime, enjoy these family records and take the time to rediscover some lost family members and experience their joys and sorrows. You'll find that there is a lot more here than just names and dates.
