Other Events:

• AFN: 8FCB-6P

Notes:

(1) He was baptized at the N.Y. Dutch Reformed Church 23 Dec 1705. NYG&B rec. 974.7 B4ne Vol. 2
p. 313. No death date is found for him in N.Y.City nor in Staten Island where he lived and raised his
family.
His marriage probably took place on Staten Island where his wife, Cornelia Corssen, daughter of
Christian Corssen & his wife Antje Gerretse Croesen lived.
The probability is that the marriage was recorded on Staten Island, c. 1727, but the early
church records are not extant, the earliest marriage being 1764 in the Moravian Church & 1754
in St. Andrews Episcopal Church.

• AFN: 8FC4-DW

Notes:

Nailtie & her Parents are found recorded in the DRC Bap. records of Staten Island on a loose piece of paper neither date nor year upon it p. 67.
In Neeltje Corsen's father Christian Corsen's will dated 5 FEB 1762, he begueathed two 40 acre land sites to his daughter Neeltie, the wife of France Gebrants & after her decease, I give & bequeath the same lands to her two sons Christian & Daniel.... Christian & Daniel paying the sum of fifty pounds a piece to their two sisters, Eleanor or Nelly & Antje, or to their heirs or assigns in six months after the deceased of their mother.
Since there were other Garbrants men in N.Y. who could have had a daughter Elizabeth who md. Peter Post 14 Nov 1760 (N.Y. mgs., Bef 1784,p.164) and only one Frans Gerbrants Jr. who had a daughter Elizabeth buried 4 OCT 1731 at NYDC. I have gone with the evidence stated in the will that one of Frans & Neeltje Gerbrants daughters was deceased & have assumed it was Elizabeth, since the mg. in 1660 does not name a father & the burial lists Frans Gerbrants Jr.
Eleanor Garrebrants gravestone reads: died 29 Jan -- age 80 yrs. 8 Mos., so her abt b. year 1821.

Notes:

(Research):Not sure about marriage to a Jane Varley.

Cornelius Martineau age 44 carpenter, wife Elizabeth 39, & a list of children, a son in-law and a Mother in-law. We find in the 1820 census that the John Betts family (his wifes family) grew up & lived in Castletown, Staten Island where Cornelius grew up.
