| Notes |
- Of Oblinus' companions on board the de Bonte Koe (Spotted Cow), Demarest went to Staten Island, Journee and Bogert to Brooklyn, and the Bastiaensen brothers to Stuyvesant's Bouwery, though they all soon after came to Harlem. The Bastiaensens, it may be observed, were the ancestors of the entire Kortright or Courtright family, in the States of New York and New Jersey, and also, through other branches, of the families of Ryer and Michiel (now Mekeel and McKeel, -- a Dutch metamorphosed into a Hibernian name!) of Westchester and other counties of our State, and that of Low, in Somerset County, New Jersey but distinct from the Lows of Ulster county, named in a preceding note.

- Michiel Bastiaensen, of whose history up to his emigration, in 1663, we have before spoken, had, so far as known, five children, viz.: Reyer, born 1653; Metje, born 1655, who married Hendrick Kiersen: Annetie, born 1658, who married John Odell (ancestor of the Fordham Odells); Bastiaen, born 1662, and Aefie, born 1665, in New York, who married Jacques Tourneur.

- Michiel Bastiaensen (Van Kortryk), born 1620, at Leerdam, Holland, also married and removed to the village of Schoonrewoert, not far from Leerdam, where his children Reyer, Metje, Annetie, and Bastiaen were born, his fifth child. Aefie, born in Harlem. They all came in the Spotted Cow in 1663, with Jan and his family, and soon came to Harlem, later making their home at Fordham.
