Dearborn, Chicago, Ill., gives the following information: With the exception of the eldest son, Michael, the baptismal records of the children were obtained from the records of the Six Mile Run Church, Somerset Co., N.J. In a document dated Feb 7, 1777, Michael states that he is the eldest son. A Power of Attorney dated June 3, 1783, now in the files of the Long Island Hist. Soc., names these children, appointing their brother, John, (#4) their attorney. A family record gives further data on John, Jan (#4). The will of Jacobus (#5) mentions his wife and his brother and sisters with names of his sisters' husbands. It mentions no children. The will of his wife, Margaret, reveals her maiden name. The tax lists of Somerset Co., N.J. lists the "Widow Vanderveer" through 1797. This probably refers to Seytje. The lists are missing between 1797 and 1803 when she is no longer listed. Data relative to Cornelius (#2), from a pension application made by his widow, Sarah, in May 1839, based on his Rev. War service. File also contains a depostion of Henry Vanderveer, resident of Mercer Co., Ky. relative to the service of his brother, Cornelius. Also contains names and birth dates of the children of Cornelius.
