Hendrich Van Schoonhoven Hendrich Van Schoonhoven was born abt. 1600 in Wittsburg, Holland. He married Aeltgen Adiens. The Schoonovers came to America before 1650 and were called Van Schoonhoven. They came from Holland. They were originally 'from' Schoonhoven, the small city on the river Lek (really a Roman canal). The name 'Schoon' meant either clean or safe, 'Hoven' meant haven, or save place. The location on the ancient Roman canal made it a 'safe haven'. The Municipality of Schoonhoven has an area of 208 acres. Its population was, in 1930, 4,477 and in 1936, 4,502. It is situated on the bank of Lek, and was in earlier times an important fortress. The origin of the name is explained in two ways; Cornelius Aurelius called it "Bello-Portus" (beautiful harbor) and claimed that its real name was "Schoonhaven" (schoon is beautiful and haven is harbor.) The emblem of Schoonhoven is four climbing lions on a silver field, of which the first and last are black and the two middle ones are red. Children of Hendrich Van Schoonhoven and Aeltgen Adiens were-Claes/Klaas Hendrickse Van Schoonhoven born in 1629 in Wilsburgh/Utrecht, Holland, and died before March 16, 1661 in Ft.

Hendrick's 1st wife Debora was a little over 14 when she married Hendrick who was 27. Despite 8 years of marriage, they produced no children. When she was twenty she had an affair with Peg Leg Perrick or Dirck Adrians Van Vliet and they had an illegitimate son Niclaes Van Schoonhoven. Dirck Van Vliet had one leg. A brother-in-law, Gysbert Krom accidentally shot off Dirck's left leg at a New Year's Eve Party in 1678. A wooden or "peg" leg was the usual artificial limb for the time. In her affadavit Debora states that Dirck would not marry her, but instead, he married another. This would have occurred either before or soon after birth of the child. In 1685, the year in which Niclaas was born, Dirck Van Vliet married Anne Andriesen (baptised 1662), daughter of Andries and Hilletje Hendricks Barentsen. Parents of Dirck Van Vliet were Adrian Gerritsen Van Vliet and Agatha Jans Spruyt. Dirck Van Vliet married Anna Andriesen 4-23-1685 in Kingston, NY. The families of both Dirck and Debora lived in the village of Kingston, and obviously knew one another. The Van Vliet family arrived in New Netherlands on the ship, "Trouw," on 13 June, 1662, and settled at Kingston. Dirck died there in 1702. Over the years the Van Vliet, Schoonover, Krom and Davids (Davis) families intermarried. Later, Debora's grand-daughter, Rebekka, married a Krom who was the grand-son of Dirck Van Vliet. Debora admitted that Hendirck was not the father of her first child and that the father was Derrick Wootin Legg. Debora married in 1692 to Pieter Van Bommel and had the following children-Margaret Van Bommel, married Hendrick Dojo; Marretjen Maria Van Bommel born 1695 in Kingston, Ulster County, NY, married Simon Frere; Marcus Christophl Van Bommel born Jan 9, 1698�in NY; Christoffel Van Bommel born Jan 9, 1698 NY; Elizabeth Van Bommel born May 21, 1701 in Kingston, Ulster County, NY, married Hendrick Ostrander; Pieter Van Bommel born 1704 in Kingston, Ulster County, NY; Debora Van Bommel born Abt 1705, married David Burhans; Antje Van Bommel born 1706 in Kingston, Ulster County, NY; and Pieter Van Bommel born May 7, 1710 in Kingston, Ulster County, NY. Niclaes Van Schoonhoven, baptised February 01, 1685 in Kingston, Ulster County, NY was the illegitimate son of Debora David and Peg Leg Perrick or Dirck/Derrick Adrians Von Vliet. Niclaes was probably raised by Debora's 2nd husband Pieter Van Bommel since he was listed as a step-son in Pieter's will. In his will, Hendrick Claessen Van Schoonhoven left only one shilling to Niclaes. Children of Hendrick Claessen Van Schoonhoven and Cornelia Swartwout were-Ifje "Eva" Van Schoonhoven, baptised April 28, 1689 in Kingston, Ulster Co., NY, married Dirk Kermer, of Mormel (Marbletown), born 1686; Cornelia Van Schoonhoven, baptised October 4, 1691 in Kingston, Ulster County, NY; Niclaes Van Schoonhoven, born abt.

Niclaes Van Schoonhoven was baptised a Schoonhoven, and was given the Schoonhoven surname, but he was not Hendrick Claes Schoonhoven's biological son, he was Debora David and Peg Leg P/Derrick Von Vliet's illegitimate son, and therefore was not actually biologically related to the Schoonhovens.

(2) Hendrich van Schoonhoven and Aeltgen Adiens' son Geurt Hendrickse Van Schoonhoven was born 1634 in Holland. He came to America and settled in Beverwyck perhaps as late as the 1650s.�Beverwyck was the name given to the community of fur traders that first emerged along the Hudson River north of Fort Orange during the 1640s. Geurt supported� himself through carpentry.� He rented a dwelling while working out of a "celler with a lean-to shed" - which he purchased in 1663. Later, he owned a house and lot within the Albany stockade.�In 1675 Geurt was farming in Half Moon and in 1681 on Cohoes Island. By the 1860's he had married Maritie Cornelis.�They were members of the Albany Dutch Church. Maritie was born in Europe, came to America and all of her children were born here prior to 1683. She lived with Geurt in Albany and in his other up-river residences. Their six children also became members of the Albany Dutch Church. Maritie Cornelis Van Schoonhoven witnessed the baptism of a granddaughter in 1704.� Maritie may have died as late as 1710.�In August 1700, Geurt Hendrickse made a will calling himself a yeoman of Halfmoon. As was the custom, he acknowledged the suppremacy of God and his own allegience to the king of England. He left his "well beloved wife Maritie Cornelius" his entire Halfmoon estate and also his lot in Albany. She was made executrix. The eldest son Jacob was given one pound and ten shillings as his birthright and son Hendrick was left Geurt's carpenter tools. The sons were to share farm tools. After their mother's death, the sons were to have the Halfmoon and Albany property appraised, and, after six years, divide the proceeds six ways to include their sisters, Margarita, Hendrickie, Geertruy, and Jacomyntie Van Schoonhoven.
