Charity MIDDAUGH was the daughter of Elias MIDDAUGH and Sara VAN AKEN. Charity married Samuel HILLMAN on 28 Jan. 1813 in Chemung,N.Y. Elias MIDDAUGH and Sara VAN AKEN were my gggg-grandparents. Does anyone know who Sara VAN AKEN descends from?


Thanks,


Doug

Re: Re: Re: Re: Sara VAN AKEN

Also on this family line,
Marinus VanAken was married to Pieternella De Pre
the information I have is Marinus dies before 1724 (Rochester NY) and Pieternella dies after 1724, indicating that some document dated 1724 indicates she is a widow.

Also in my family line, I have
Moses Depue married to Maria (Marrite) Wynkoop
- Nicholas Depue
-- Moses Depue
--- Elizabeth Depue
---- Samuel Hillman (Charity MIDDAUGH's husband)

Moses Depue's second wife is Pieternella De Pre, m. 16 Oct 1724 (Rochester NY)

Is this the same Pieternella De Pre?? if not it is a good coincedence.

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Sara VAN AKEN

Just found a link between these families

Moses Depue's son Cornelius married Marinus' daughter Catrina.

So Moses and Pieternella knew each other before the death of their spouces.
