Barent Jacobsen Kool
Barent Jacobsen Kool was born in Holland about 1610. He died about 1676 in Kingston, Ulster Co., New York. The Kool surname was also sometimes spelled Cool or Cole. The last name is often spelled Kool in the church records. Barent Jacobsen Kool was the son of Jacob Arendsen Kool and Aeltje Dirckse. Jacob Arendsen Kool was born 1580 in Vyfretch, Holland. His son Barent Jacobsen Kool came to America in the services of the West-India Company. He was married in 1637 in Holland to Marretje Leendertse De Graeuw, the daughter of Leendert Arentzen and Leuntie Alberts (Lydecker) De Graeuw. The De Graeuws came to America in 1638 in the ship Dolphin.
It is possible. that Barent Jacobsen Cool came over with Peter Minuit in 1625. But, beginning with 1633, we can trace him through civil records, and, beginning with 1640, we can trace him through church and civil records down to 1665. Barent Jacobsen Cool sailed to New Amsterdam, on one of his sailings possibly from Amsterdam as a sailor in late 1632 on the ship Soutberg, which arrived in April 1633 with 140 soldiers. At that time, New Amsterdam, now New York City, had a population of only 400 to 500 people. On June 8, 1633, he and six others signed a treaty with the Sickename Indians for purchasing land on the Connecticut River. Barent's group also built a trading house called "The House of Good Hope" and fortified it with several cannons. This was done. to halt English exploration of the land.
Barent Jacobse Cool was among the very early Dutch settlers of New Amsterdam, although the precise date of his coming to America is not known. In 1633 he was already a person of some consideration in the colony. About 1637 Barent Jacobse Cool married Marrietje de Grauw, daughter of Leendert de Grauw, a member of one of the Walloon families who were the first settlers of New Amsterdam. The baptism of their nine children all appear on the records of the Reformed Dutch Church of New Amsterdam, except that of his eldest son, Jacob Barentsen Cool, who was born in 1639. (from Benson's "Barent Jacobsen Cool Family"). Barent later was Captain of the yacht Amsterdam between 1638 and 1644. He sailed on the Hudson River and was a river pilot for other boats. On April 13, 1654, Barent became a wine and beer carrier for the Dutch West India Company. He watched the company warehouse and was appointed by the New Amsterdam burgomasters as an exciseman. He, along with Joost Goderus, boarded ships in New Amsterdam, searched their contents, and levied duty on the goods they found. On September 21, 1663, Barent was appointed as a public porter and was elected foreman (Elder of the Beer Porters) on July 17, 1665. From - "St. Nicholas Society Genealogical Records, Vol. 2 (1905): --- Officer/yacht master with Dutch West India Company under Governor Minuit. 5 May 1654". Removed to Esopus (Kingston) with marriage of eldest son, Jacob, to Marretje Simons 1 Sep 1689--Took oath of allegiance at Ulster (Kingston) Cole, William. Barent Jacobse Cool was enrolled as a "Burgher" of New Amsterdamon the 14th of April, 1657, and took the usual oath of obedience to the city authorities and of fidelity to the States-General of the United Netherlands, to the Dutch West Indian Company and to its Director-General. He died in 1676 in Kingston, Ulster, New York.

(Note: From - Full text of "The New York genealogical and biographical record" John Eliot's ("Apostle to the Indians") Records of the first church in ...... 1659 - www.archive.org/stream/.../newyorkgenealogi61newy_djvu.txt - He picked out a spot for a trading post, and it was soon occupied by a handfull of English traders. In June 1633 Director van Twiller sent his Commissary, Jacob van Curler, to the Pequot indians who lived on the banks of this river, and van Curler purchased from the Pequot chief a tract of land called Sickajoock (now Hartford), "one league down along the river and one-third of a league in width to the high land."� (A league is about three miles.) This is in the present Dutch Point area of Hartford, Connecticut. Here van Curler constructed a trading house, which was optimistically christened the House of Good Hope, and fortified with two cannon. The Dutch sailor who served as a witness to the signing of this deed from Sassacus, sachem of the Pequots on 8 Jun 1633 was 24-year old Frederick Lubbertsen. The other men in van Curler's group, who also witnessed the signing, were Gilles Pieters, Claes Jans Ruyter, Domingo Dios, BARENT JACOBZ COOL, and Pieter Louwensen. (Claes Jansen de Ruyter, also called Claes Jansen van Naerden, was the brother of Lubbertsen's wife Styntje.) The Chief of the Sickenames was paid for the said land one piece of duffels, 27 ells long; six axes; six kettles; eighteen knives, one sword blade, one shears, and some toys.)
------------------
According to Genevieve Lentz in her book, "Westfall Research," "Barent Cole was born in Holland in 1610, son of Jacob. He died in 1676 in New York. He was Captain of a ship, working for the West India Company. He married about 1637, Mary DeGraw, daughter of Leonard and Madeline (Lydecker). Madeline's father was Albert Leydecker (Decker may be the same name as this form is not recorded in New York records again). The DeGraws came to America in 1638 aboard The Dolphin. Leonard's father, Aaron DeGraw, probably died in Holland, as there is no record of him in N.Y."
It can be presumed that Barent Jacobsen Cool came to Esopus (Kingston), New Netherlands about 1657. A census of 1658, as cited by Sylvester in his "History of Ulster County, New York," (Philadelphia, Everts & Peck, 1880) Part I, page 34, puts the population on June 3, 1658 at about seventy (70) men, women, and children, with about 30 of these adult males. Thus, Barent Jacobsen Cool and his family can be said to be one of the first 30 families to settle present-day Kingston. According to "The Abridged Compendium of American Genealogy: First Families of America" (subtitled, "A Geneological Encyclopedia of the United States) - (Genealogical Publishing Company. Baltimore: 1987.), Barent Jacobse Cool came from Holland ca. 1625, settled at New Amsterdam, married Marietje Leendertse de Grauw. One source puts his birth at the family home in Dordrecht, Zuid-Holland, Netherlands. The last name is also rendered Kool in church records.

Hans Hansen Van Nordstrand
Hans Jansen (Hansen) Van Nostrand (or Nordstrand), was born Bet. 1600 and 1610 at Nordstrand, Schleswig-Holstein, Denmark (now Germany). He Married Rymerig Volkert (date unknown). He�died April 1, 1690 in Amersfoort, Long Island, (Flatlands) Brooklyn, NY. Rymerig Volkert, was born Bet. 1600 and 1610 in Noordstrandt. She died before 1645. They had these children: Jan, Volkert, Maritje, Symon, and Rommetje Hansen Van Nostrand. Hans Hansen Van Nostrand married for a second time 29 Nov 1652 to Janneken Gerrits Van Loon, and they had these children: Catherine, Gerret, Jan, and Peter Hansen Van Nostrand. The children and descendants of Hans most often spelled their name Van Nostrand, though it often appears recorded spelled a number of different ways, Van Noorstrand, Van Nordstrand, Van Norstrand, Van Noordstrandt. Hans was a farmer, and owned a farm in the Flatbush neighborhood located in the borough of Brooklyn in Kings County, Long Island, New York. The community name derives from the Dutch for "level forest" and is presently bounded by Parkside Avenue, Nostrand Avenue, Avenue H and Coney Island Avenue. It includes the southernmost portion of Prospect Park. Hans Hansen Van Nostrand's father was Jan Van Noordstrandt born about 1575 in Noordstrandt, Holstein Germany/Denmark.
Maritje's father Hans Hansen Van Nordstrand (Hansen of Nordstrand) came to New Amsterdam, NY in 1639. The name Nordstrand came from the Isle of Nordstrand (translation: "north shore"�) which is in present day Germany. Hans Hansen van Nordstrand arrived in New Netherland 16 June 1639 on a private ship "de Brant von Trogen" (The Fire of Troy). At the time Nordstrand Island was a part of Denmark. Nordstrand Island and the other North Frisian islands, and Schleswig and Holstein have at different times belonged in part or completely to either Denmark or Germany, or have been virtually independent of both nations. The exception is that Schleswig had never been part of Germany until the Second War of Schleswig in 1864. From 1460 until 1864, the North Frisian area was part of Denmark. The Duchies of Schleswig and Holstein, including Nordstrand Island and the other North Frisian islands, were ruled by Danish Dukes, members of the Royal Family of Denmark. The North Frisian islands and Schleswig-Holstein are now a part of Germany. Nostrand Avenue In Brooklyn, NY is believed to be named for Han's son Gerret Hansen Van Nostrand. In the 1620's the Dutch bought Manhattan Island from Native Americans and established a trading center New Amsterdam (New York) and other settlements along the Hudson River. This area was called New Netherland. The first emigrants from today's Schleswig-Holstein came in 1636 from Bredstedt (North-Friesland) to New Amsterdam. The reasons for emigration were possibly the poverty of people who lost their homes after the terrible storm tide of 1634. There was a great storm and flood at Noordstrandt in Oct 1634 that Hans Hansen and his family lived through. Also the Thirty Years war (1618-1648) had an effect. There are passenger lists of Dutch ships, and Hans Hansen was on the list "Emigration from Schleswig-Holstein in 1636-1667 to New Netherland." Nordstrand was once a part of the Strand Island which was a part of the North Frisian Islands which run along the northern cost of Germany and southern coast of Denmark, a group of islands in the Wadden Sea, a part of the North Sea. In 1634 the Island of Strand which included Nordstrand and Pellworm was torn apart by a great storm and flood resulting in over 6000 deaths, more than half of the residents, and leaving only the Island of Pellworm and 10 smaller islets called Halligen, and Nordstrand now a peninsula connected to the mainland by a causeway.

W. (now Syosset)�son of Gerrit & Marya Vanderbilt�contained a record of Hans Jennsen emigrant, where and when he landed - HANS JANSEN, from Noortstrant, emigrated to this country about 1639 with a family of children. June 25, 1639, Hans Jansen of Rotterdam gave a note to Cornelis Volckertsen for 32 Carolus guilders. If his first wife came with him, she probably died soon after, as he had a child baptized in the Dutch Church in N. Y., Dec. 8, 1641, and the mother was not present. Hans Janszen Van Noortstrant married, Nov. 29, 1652, Janneken Gerrits Van Loon. Recorded with the record of marriage is this: "Op't Sandt in de Mayerje Van de Bosch" ("Province of the Woods"). The witnesses to the above baptism were : Laurens Pietersze Noorman, Janneken Motyn, Styntje Jans. He was called sometimes "Hans Jansen" and at other times "Hans Hansen." Hans Jansen would seem to be his correct name, as that is the name attached to his will. From the record he seems to have brought one daughter with him, for on May 23, 1644, Hans Jansen, father and guardian of Marritje Hans, his daughter, acknowledges to have bound his above named daughter to Philip Garritsen, tavern-keeper, for the term of three consecutive years, beginning on New Years', 1645, ending on New Year's, 1648, to serve in the family and to be provided and cared for as his own child, and to be taught sewing.
(Note: The above text should read - Hans Janszen Van Noortstrant married, Nov. 29, 1652, Janneken Gerrits van Loon Op't Sandt in de Maijerie van de Bosch. The village 'Loon op't Sandt' refers to the modern small town 'Loon op Zand' in the Dutch province Noord-Brabant with its capital's-Hertogenbosch (with popular name 'Den Bosch').

Note: The following information about Nordstrand Island is from Wikipedia and "Cor Snabel's story of the Nordstrand flood of 1634" at http://www.rabbel.nl/nordstrand.html -- Nordstrand (North Frisian Noordstrand) is a peninsula and former island in North Frisia on the North Sea coast of Germany. It is part of the Nordfriesland district in the federal state of Schleswig-Holstein. Its area is 50 km, and its population is 2,300. Nordstrand has two municipalities, Nordstrand and smaller Elisabeth-Sophien-Koog, which are part of the Amt Nordsee-Treene. In medieval times Nordstrand was a part of the larger island of Strand which was torn into pieces in a disastrous storm tide in 1634. Other remnants of Strand are Pellworm and the Halligen islets. Nordstrand is accessible by road over a causeway which connects to the mainland and was built in 1936. In 1987, the polder Beltringharder Koog was completed, turning the former island into a peninsula. The original Nordstrand island (before the flood of 1634) is thought to be the ancestral homeland for the North American surname "van Nostrand" (including variants: vanNostrand, vanNordstrandt, vanOstrand). Two brothers emigrated from here to what is present day New York, USA in 1637 and 1639 after the flood.
During the night of October 11-12, 1634, a raging storm destroyed the coastline of North Friesland. In a few hours, the flood accompanying this storm, swept away complete villages, hamlets and even islands from the face of the earth. About 15,000 people lost their lives that disastrous night, a pivotal event in human history within this region and beyond. Nordstrand Island - where more than 6,000 people drowned- suffered the most devastation. The tremendous power of the water destroyed about 50 miles of the coast between Nordstrand Island and the Danish border. At Eiderstedt, the area south of Nordstrand Island, 2,106 people drowned, despite being protected by dikes 18-20 feet high. Inside Klixb�ll's church, people marked the water level on the wall: 14 feet above ground level. This was the second great flood in the history of the North Frisian region. In 1362, a similar flood, known as the "Grote Manndr�nke", ravaged the same area, but little is known about that disaster. The early years of the 17th century had not been easy on the inhabitants, either. In 1603, bubonic plague diminished the population of the whole area; and, in 1618, the Thirty Years War brought hunger and poverty to the region. In 1630, the government hired Dutchman Jan Adriaansz Leeghwater to supervise a land-reclamation project. The 1634 flood wiped out four years' hard labor of his workers in a few hours, breaking existing dikes in hundreds of places or completely washing them away. As the water withdrew from the fields, the salt stayed behind and made the fields useless. The results of the flood were disastrous for the economy of the entire North Frisian coast. All these aspects and the traumatic experiences of the flood paralyzed the spirit of enterprise of most survivors. Many moved away, a large number of them to Holland.

The following article is about Nostrand Playground, Nostrand & Foster Aves in Brooklyn, NY from this website - Nostrand Playground - Nostrand & Foster Aves - Brooklyn - Acres: 3.02 - This playground and the nearby avenue are named for the Nostrand family. In the mid-1600s, many Dutch families settled in the townships that now constitute the Borough of Brooklyn. Due to the lack of standardized spelling and the transition from Dutch to English, the Nostrand family name took many forms throughout history including: Van Nostrand, Van Norstrand, Van Noordstrandt, Noostrand, Noorstrant, and Nostrandt. All are variations on the most commonly used modern form: Nostrand.
The common ancestor of the Nostrand family, Hans Hansen (d. 1690) or Jansen (he used them interchangeably) emigrated from Europe in 1640. Although of Dutch heritage, Hans Hansen emigrated from the Island of Norstrand off the coast of the City of Schleswig, in what is now Germany. His children adopted the name of the island of their origin, hence the name Van Norstrand. Hans Hansen settled in the township of Flatbush and his descendants all originated in or eventually settled in the various Long Island townships that now survive as neighborhoods in the borough of Brooklyn. Hans Hansen, a farmer by trade, arrived in Flatbush with his son, Jan Hansen (b. 1637), after his first wife died. He married his second wife, Janneken Gerrits Van Loon in 1652. Han's first son, Jan Hansen, settled in New Utrecht and became captain of the New Utrecht militia in 1689. After serving his tenure in the militia, Jan Hansen sold his property and moved across the river to Hackensack, New Jersey.
Another of Han's sons, Gerret (Garret) Hansen Noordstrandt, settled in what is now Brooklyn. He married Jannetje Remsen (a member of another prominent Dutch family of the area) in 1685. Like his father, Gerret farmed for a living. He was one of the earliest members of the Dutch Church beginning in 1677. Nostrand Avenue in Brooklyn, which honors the family name, may be specifically named for Gerret. One of the most complete histories known of a member of the Nostrand family belongs to Johannes Noostrandt (d. 1826). His first wife died shortly after their marriage and he married his second wife, Maria VanEtten a year and a-half later. Johannes served in the American Revolution (1776-1783) and lived in Duchess County, New York.
The Nostrand Playground property, located at the intersection of Nostrand and Foster Avenues, was acquired by the City on April 26, 1951. Opened in 1953, the playground provides a large play space equipped with red, yellow, and green play equipment with safety surfacing, a swing set, slides, handball and basketball courts, and spray showers. A large asphalt section of the playground contains a baseball field with a backstop. In 1999, Mayor Rudolph Giuliani provided $162,585 for new paving and resurfacing of the basketball courts as well as new benches and a drinking fountain. Surrounded by a chain-link fence and featuring a flagpole with yardarm, the playground has many benches and numerous trees, primarily pin oaks (Quercus palustris).

(2) Hans Hansen Van Nostrand and his 1st wife Rymerig Volkert's son Volkert Hansen Van Nostrand was born about 1634 at Nordstrand, Schleswig-Holstein, Denmark (now Germany), and died after 1703. He married Sarah Albertse Terhune 3 Apr 1680 in Flatbush, Kings Co., Long Island, NY, at the Dutch Reformed Church. She was a daughter of Albert Terhune and Geertje Dircks. Children of Volkert Hans Van Norstrand and Sarah Albertse Terhune were-Janetje Van Norstrand born abt. Nov 1681, Christening 13 Nov 1681, Flatbush, Kings Co., Dutch Reformed Church, N.Y; Albert Van Norstrand born abt. Feb 1685, Christening 22 Feb 1685, Kings Co., Dutch Reformed Church, N.Y; Hans Van Norstrand born abt. 1686, Christening 1686, Hackensack, Bergen, Dutch Ref. Church, N.J. -------------- (Note: From - History of Passaic and its environs ...: historical-biographical, Volume 2 --�By William Winfield Scott -- With this explanation, one will better understand why Volkert Hansen signed his name "Volkert Van Nostrand," Volkert from the North Strand, Albert Albertse, became Albert Ter Huynen, or Albert from Hunen, corrupted into Terhune from the original of Terhuyne. Lubbert Lubbertsen meant simply Lubbert, the son of Lubbert, which was changed to Van Westervelt, meaning from the western fields. And so through the category of Holland and quite often French surnames.
During the last quarter of the seventeenth century a real estate fever spread over Bergen and that part of Essex now in Passaic county, when there was great speculation in land. John Berry did not actually buy and pay for his patent, which was a present, as a reward for services rendered and to be rendered the Governor and Colony, and which he accepted in lieu of money, because he hoped to make more out of the land. His first attempts at making sales of farms failed, because of defective title, which lacked the deed from the Indians. This he subsequently obtained and was able to sell.
Berry's first deeds for land, now in Lodi, made in 1682, were to Lubbert Lubbertse and Charles Huysman respectively. That of the former was later known as the Garret Kip farm, and the latter that of Albert Terhune. Lubbetrse and Huysman came here from Long Island upon the request of their neighbor and old friend, Albert Albertse. By deed dated April 29, 1682, Berry conveyed to Volkert Hansen the farm lying between the farms of Lubbertsen and Huysman. (This land extended along Polifly road about 600 feet north of the present Washington place). In this conveyance Hansen is referred to as "dwelling in the bay upon Long Island." He married Saartie Albertse Terhune, came to Polifly early in 1686, where their first child was born in March. They joined the Hackensack Reformed Church, July 25, that year.) (3) Hans Hansen Van Nostrand and his 1st wife Rymerig Volkert's daughter Maritje Hansen Van Nostrand born 1636 at Nordstrand, Schleswig-Holstein, Denmark (now Germany), died after 1670 at Kingston, NY, married Jurian Westfall 28 Jan 1653 or 1654 at Esopus, NY. He was born in 1629 in Holland. He died in about 1667 in Esopus (later Kingston) New York. Jurian and Marritje (Hansen Van Nostrand) Westfall had 6 children-Rymerick Westfall, Nicholas Claes Westfall, Johannes Juriaen Westfall, Abel Westfall, Symen Westfall, and Elsjen Westfall.

Hans Jansen would seem to be his correct name, as that is the name attached to his will. From the record he seems to have brought one daughter with him, for on May 23, 1644, Hans Jansen, father and guardian of Marritje Hans, his daughter, acknowledges to have bound his above named daughter to Philip Garritsen, tavern-keeper, for the term of three consecutive years, beginning on New Years', 1645, ending on New Year's, 1648, to serve in the family and to be provided and cared for as his own child, and to be taught sewing.

Chronicle, Two Rivers newspaper Tuesday, August 25, 1903 - Front page - Daniel Van Nostrand Sr. Died, A good Man and an Old Settler gone to the other shore Yesterday morning the mortal career of Daniel Van Nostrand Sr. came to a sudden termination from a paralytic stroke, just after he had got out of bed and was about to dress himself. Several months ago he received warning in the form of a slight stroke of paralysis that his earthly course was nearly run but this warning gave him no distress of either mind or body, as its effects upon his body soon disappeared and he continued to daily fulfill the duties of life and to enjoy its blessings as though nothing had happened.
His mind had no reason to be troubled over what the future had in store for him. He had lived a pure life, worshipped God as he believed it the duty of mortals to worship Him and had been charitable and just to his fellow men. So he continued on life's journey, happy all that day long, regardless of when or where it would end. The end came yesterday morning, in the twinkling of an eye, with no prelude of pain and helplessness. It was an
ideal ending of a long and useful life.
Daniel Van Nostrand was born in Hemstead, Long Island November 22, 1819 and was a lineal descendant of Peter Van Nostrand, one of the Dutch colonists who settled in New York in 1636. He was married to Johanna Coe March 24, 1846. She bore him eight children. Three died in infancy and one, the wife of A. Hudson, who died several years ago. Three sons, Daniel Jr., William and Silas and one daughter Anne, survive him. She died on the 10 of November 1869. Mr. Van Nostrand was married the second time on March 19, 1889 to Mrs. Estella Boyles, who survives him.
He was one of the early settlers of Two Rivers having come here in 1854 and, with the exception of about one year and a half spent in Iowa, this place has since been his home. He was a good citizen and an estimable neighbor. All who have known him will feel no anxiety over him now that he has passed away, but will rejoice with the beloved ones he leaves behind that his departure was so entirely free of pain and suffering. The funeral will take place tomorrow afternoon from the little church he has loved so well and helped to maintain so long.
