      Jan Quackenbosh was born about 1565, presumably in Holland. The name of his wife is unknown to me. They had at least one son, Pieter Janszoon (Pieter Jansen Quackenbosh), born in 1590 in Holland. Pieter married Nelletjen Pietersz in 1613. Pieter and Nelletjen had at least two children: Pieter, who married Maritje Ariens; and Martitje. The name of these children is recorded as Quackenbush.Pieter Quackenbush was a graduate of the University of Leyden, Holland. He was a student of divinity at the University of Groningen. He resided in Oestgeest, Holland, where his first son was born. He married Maritje Ariens in Konderkerk, Holland, on March 23, 1639/40. This couple immigrated to New Netherlands around 1660 with their infant son Reynier and his sister, Martitje. They settled in what is now Albany and started a brick business. Pieter and Maritje had at least 10 children, of which only Reynier is known to me.Reynier Quackenbush first married Lysbeth Jans Masten, who died about 1690 in Schenectady, N.Y. By Lysbeth he had at least one daughter, Divertje, who married Frederick Jacobus Wortendyke, son of Jacob Wortendyke and Aaltje Fredericks. Reynier then married Claesje Jacobs Stille, daughter of Jacob Cornelis Stille, on September 13, 1692 in New York City at the Dutch Reformed Church. He was one of the grantees in the Castigione Patent, where he resided for a period of time. He also lived in New York City and in Schenectady.Reynier and Claesje had at least 10 children, of which only one, Abraham, is known to me. Abraham was born in New York City about 1704. He married Susanna Heilling on March 29, 1729 at the Dutch Church in Schraalenburg, N.J. Abraham and Susanna resided in Tappan and had several children, including Reynier, who married Annatje Van Orden and Sarah Durie; Jacob, who married Lea Chrisie; Jacomyntje, who married Isaac Brouwer, son of Adolphus Brouwer and Jannetje Verdon; and seven other children.Reynier Quackenbush and Annatje Van Orden had at least two children: James and Abraham, who died in infancy. By Sarah Durie, Reynier had one son, John Quackenbush. John in turn married Hannah Ackerman and had a son, Peter Quackenbush, who relocated several times between Paterson and Preakness until settling on the old Samuel Van Saun place in Lower Preakness. He then removed to Paterson again where he died in 1882. Pieter learned the tanning business from his uncle, William P. Ackerman. He started his own leather and findings business in Paterson and also successfully speculated on lands in Paterson.James, son of Reynier and Annatje, was born on September 8, 1758 at Schraalenburgh. He married twice: first to Leah Demarest, daughter of David Benjamin Demarest and Marytje Ackerman; and second to Margaret Romeyn. By Leah, James had at least two children: John, who married Martha Westervelt, daughter of Jacobus (James) Westervelt and Maria Sloat; and Reynier, who married Helen Schuyler, daughter of Adonijah Schuyler and Elizabeth Bogert.Reynier Quackenbush and Helen Schuyler were married on April 30, 1807. They had at least five children, including David, who married Rachel Westervelt, daughter of John A. Westervelt and Cornelia Brinkerhoff; Leah Ann, who married Thomas Terhune; Adonijah Schuyler Quackenbush, who married Sophia Earle; Elizabeth B. Quackenbush, who married John Hopper, son of Andrew P. Hopper and Anna Van Voorhees; and John J., who married Elizabeth Ann Bogert.Adonijah Schuyler Quackenbush bears a remarkable name. His mother, Helen Schuyler, was named after her grandmother, Helena Van Wagoner, daughter of Gerrit Hermanus Van Wagoner and Annetje Sip. Helen Schuyler was the granddaughter of Captain Arent Schuyler of Pompton, who purchased the Van Wagoner farm on Ryerson Pond (Pompton Lake) and returned his wife, Helena Van Wagoner, to her childhood home upon their marriage. Helen Schuyler’s father, Adonijah, bears a name that has carried down in the Schuyler family for several generations. -
