Description

Henry Teats and Betsy Shook Their Ancestors and Descendants by Carrie L. Lartique This volume in the foreward first offers a brief history of the European origins of this family. The author starts with early ancestors such as Adam Vissenburg whose child Maykan was born in 1599. The author offers multiple references throughout the volume as she describes names, family events such as marriages, and moves from, for example, New Amsterdam to other areas of New York state. The family history is incorporated into area histories and events. Family members lived, for example, in Schenectady, Kingston and Rhinebeck and elsewhere in Dutchess County. Family lines are traced- Van O'Linda, Swart, Teitscort, deWitt, Freer, Hertel, Drom-Trum, Stickel, Guckenheim-Cookingham, Shook, Acker or Eckert, Cramer or Kramer and Teats as well as branches of these families. There is a gallery of photos for most of the family lines and an extensive index.
