birth


Kinderhook, Columbia, New York, USA ⇓
He named his first two children James and Elizabeth, the names of his maternal grandparents, then his daughter Margaret, the Americanized name of his mother. His son John's name is likely an Americanization of Johannes, his paternal grandfather's name. Isaac and Matthew's names could have come from his wife's family, as they are both her brother's names.
