Abraham Isaacsen Verplank was the son of Isaac Ver Planck. Abraham Isaacsen Verplank was born in 1606 at Netherlands. He married Maria Vigne, daughter of Guillaume Vigne and Adriana Cuveille, circa 1632.
Abraham immigrated circa 1633.
On 1-May-1638, he registered land in what is now Jersey City, Hudson County, New Jersey. This land was the first conveyance of land in Hudson County of a tract at Paulus Hoeck, situated westward of the Island of Manhattan, and westward of Aharsimus, extending from the North River into the valley, which runs around it there.

On 21-Jun-1638 Jan Damen sued to have Abraham Ver Planck and Dirck De Noorman "quit his house and leave him the master thereof." Dirck countered with a charge of assault and had witnesses testify that Jan tried to "throw his step-daughter Christine, Dirck's wife, out of doors." (Citation needed)
Abraham resided in Paulus Hoek, New Jersey in 1640. He held the position on the 12-man council assembled by Director Willem Kieft to "advise" him on Indian affairs. [Kieft was really only trying to drum up popular support for his plans to eliminate the local Indian tribes.]
In 1641, Abraham had such a falling out with the Director that he was threatened with banishment if he continued to insult the Company's officers. In the following year Kieft disbanded the council because it disagreed with his military ambitions.
In 1643 the Indian war forced Maria and Abraham to seek the safety of the fort at Manhattan. They bought a lot from brother-in-law Van Tienhoven at Smits Vly, near Pearl Street and Maiden Lane, and built a house there in 1649.
In 1664 when the English fleet showed up on the Hudson River, Abraham was one of the signers of the petition requesting that Peter Stuyvesant surrender. A fight with the English would have destroyed New Amsterdam. The people were more interested in keeping their homes than keeping Stuyvesant as their leader.
Abraham Isaacsen Verplank died circa 1690 at Albany, Albany County, New York.
In 1699, a parcel of land having belonged to ABRAHAM ISAACC VERPLANK, located on King Street, New York City, was sold by his heirs apparently to settle his estate. Of interest is that his heirs of february 27, 1699 are named. [1]
Born about 1614 [2] He married Maria Vigne in 1635.[3] and died in 1690.[4]

VerPlanck-53 and Ver Planck-1 are not ready to be merged because:
Hi,
They are the same, but perhaps we should search for some sources to determine the correct LNAB and correct it before the merge ? I assume, the official last name was 'de Planque' or 'des Planques' or something and it very likely was 'Dutchified' to Plancken and later Ver Planck or VerPlanck or something ? So if you're all ok I would like to search for some sources before we merge them ...? Looking at the churchrecords added here, the name was Plancken or Planck, which would also correspondent more with what very likely was the original de Planque version ?
Ver Planck-1 and VerPlanck-53 appear to represent the same person because: Same person spelled different, that's why they never showed up as a possible duplicate.
Ver Planck-28 and Ver Planck-1 appear to represent the same person because: This recently created duplicate is the oldest paternal ancestor in this chain in need of a merge into the NNS PPP. No tree conflicts. From this match we should keep the full birth Republiek der Zeven Verenigde Nederlanden. Thanks!
VerPlanck-26 and Ver Planck-1 appear to represent the same person because: This is the oldest paternal ancestor in this chain in need of a merge into the NNS PPP. No tree conflicts. Thanks!
Verplanck-34 and Ver Planck-1 appear to represent the same person because: This newly created duplicate needs to be merged into the NNS PPP. No tree conflicts. Thanks!
Ver Planck-20 and Ver Planck-1 appear to represent the same person because: This is the oldest paternal ancestor in this chain in need of a merge. No tree conflicts. These matches have been reviewed by the New Netherland Settlers Merge Approval System, and the "Green" destination NNS profile is protected as PPP, and the "Merge Pending" profile is now ready and able to be merged into it. This will be a good opportunity to scrap the bogus Albany birth location on this NNS. Thanks!
