Collection of Manuscripts, O'Gallaghans Translation Vol. I p. 55 & Vol. 4 p. 11 It gives Cors birth as 1612 (ae 26 on 19 Oct 1638) & mg. before 1643.
(5) His death 1655 (ae 43) is given in "300 years with the Corson Family in America" by Orville Corsen p. 31, 34, 43, 44, 52, 53, 54. His place of residence listed also.(6) Early Settlers of Kings Co. by Teunis Bergen, 974 723 D2b p.382-3
The three sons of Cors lived with their mother & her second husband Frederick Lubberts( Md. bet 17 Aug & Oct 13 1657) after their father died.
As no mention is found in the record, of the two dau's. Elsje & Greitje, it may be assumed they had died before the death of their father in 1655.
On 11 Mar 1666, an interesting wedding occured; Cornelis Corssen, the eldest son of Cors & Tryntie Hendricks, married Marritje Jacobs van der Grift, the eldest child of Jacob van der Grift & Rebecca Fredericks, the daughter of Frederick Lubbertsen & Styntje Jans. The son of Tryntje Hendricks married the granddaughter of her second husband. Thus it was that the descendants of Cornelis Corssen are descended maternally not only by marriage but by direct descent from Frederick Lubbertsen.

Apparently he came to America with his father as an infant.
Apparently he changed his name from Cornelius Coursen Vroom to Cors Peterszen, taking his fathers first name ashis last name.While his children went by Corssen.
