Brinkerhoff Family History Blog

The purpose of this blog was initially for a class of mine at BYU. Now, it is a source of genealogical information for the Brinkerhoff Family. I update it occasionally and use the information frequently because of my love for genealogy!

Take a look around. And thank you for visiting!

Jacobus Hendricks Brinkerhoff

Jacobus Brinkerhoff, like his father, Hendrick, and his grandfather, Joris, was a man of high character and standing in the community in which he lived. At the death of his father, he and his brother Dirck took the paternal homestead upon the Hackensack, where he resided until his death. He was a county magistrate, an elder of the church (of which all his family were members), and a man of mark in all the relations of life. In a stone, in the center of the church at Hackensack, his name is cut in bold letters as one of its early founders. 

He married Agnitie Banta, daughter of Hendrick Banta, April 17, 1708 in Hackensack, New Jersey. They had five children. 

Children:
Hartman: born May 1, 1709.
***Hendrick: born November 1, 1710 (October 29, 1710); died 1760 (May 27, 1760).
Joris: born October 9, 1719; died January 3, 1810.
Jacob: born November 19, 1721.
Martje (Maria): born October 22, 1724.
