Biography

Dirck Evertszen was a resident of New Netherland. He was born in 1636.[1]

Dirck is recorded with two marriages, first to Fytie Reyerts around 1660, and second to Lysbeth Lubberts, by 1672. It is possible, however, that these are the marriages of two different men of the same name.[2]

Children with first wife Fytie Reyerts were:

  1. Rebecca Dirckszen, who married Hieronimus Barheyt
  2. Cornelia Everts, who married about 1681 Isaac Delamater, son of Claude Delamater & Hester Du Bois
  3. Aeltje Dircks baptized 29 June 1663 NYC Ref Ch
  4. Jannetje Dircks, baptized 31 Aug 1664 NYC Ref Ch
  5. Hendrick Dircks baptized 8 May 1667 NYC Ref Ch.

Pat Wardell says these children appear to have assumed the surname "Van Ness."[2]

Children with second wife Lysbeth Lubberts were:[3]

  1. 5 May 1672 daughter Grietie, Dirck Evertsen, Lysbeth Lubberts, sponsor Geertrud Jans
  2. 4 Oct 1674 daughter Annetie, father given as Dirck Wollespinder, mother Lysbeth Lubberts, sponsor Tyntie Jans.
  3. 22 Nov 1676 daughter Fytie, Dirck Evertsen, Lysbeth Lubberts, sponsors Gerrit Lubbertsen and Evertie Lubberts.
  4. 1 May 1680 daughter Hendrickje, Dirck Evertsen, Lysbeth Lubberts, sponsor Trutje Ottens.

Pat Wardell says these children had the surname Fluyt.[2]

He died before 9 January 1689, when Lysbeth Lubberts, the widow of Dirck Evertszen Fluyt, married Joris Borger in the New York Reformed Dutch Church.[2]

There is a Dirck Evertsen listed as a passenger on the Rosetree/Rooseboom from Amersfoort, March 24, 1663. He was accompanied by his unnamed wife and three children ages 7, 3, and 1. Is this likely to be Evertszen 1? The poorly identified secondary source, that led me to the passenger list, says that he later married Lysbeth Lubberts Gerritsen in "this country". Also, according to US and Canada, Passenger and Immigration Lists, a Dirck Evertszen arrived in New York in 1664.

His arrival with wife and 3 children in March 1663 is consistent with what we know about Dirck Evertszen. He and wife Fytie Reyerts baptised a daughter Aeltje 29 June 1663 at NYC Ref Ch. And they are listed as church members 9 Jul 1663. Aeltje could be a daughter born in June 1663 after their arrival in March, or she could be the child who was 1 and just baptised after they settled. It's also interesting there were no witnesses for her baptism, perhaps the couple was too new to the congregation (there are also no witnesses for their next 2 children). The "Passenger and Immigration List" saying Dirck arrived in 1664 would not be believable, though.

I added a link in this profile for Dirck's daughter Cornelia, who has been erroneously described on her profile Everts-12 as the daughter of Evert van Ness, a person who probably does not exist, as he is linked as son to Cornelis Hendricksz van Nes Van_Nes-28 who did not have a son named Evert.

Thank you, Sharon!

I connected Cornelia to this man as her father (and also to his first wife, Fytie). It is easy to understand how folks would assume that Cornelia Everts had a father named Evert, but I see that the consensus opinion is that she probably was this man's daughter, indicating that her name of "Everts" was essentially her father's patronymic name.

I see that Pat Wardell's notes gave Dirck's children the patronymic surname "Dircksen" or "Dircks," but our policy in WikiTree would be to use the name(s) each child was actually recorded by. At the moment, Wardell's notes are the main source for this profile, but we can do better by finding and citing the specific church records that she used, as well as by digging into published research that exists for some of the related families.

I noticed that there is no connected profile for this man's daughter Rebecca, who is said to have married Hieronymous Barheyt. His profile currently is connected to Rebecca Everts Pels as his wife. In her "Pell" family file, Pat Wardell identified Rebecca Pels as his wife.

It looks like research (probably painstaking research) will be needed to elucidate the family associations. :-(

EDITED: The presence of "Jeronymus Berhyet" and Rebecca Everts as baptism sponsors for one of Cornelia's children lends good support to the notion that Rebecca and Cornelia were sisters. I presume that was part of the basis for Riker's conclusion that they were sisters.
