Biography
Altje was the mother of at least two Van Brunt children:
- Rutgert Van Brunt b. 1710
- Aeltie Van Brunt b. 1712
It has long been claimed that Altje Coerte Van Voorhees also married Johannes Willemsen Cornell.
However, the sequence of the marriages and children does not seem to fit any possible timeline, as the four parents involved lived long lives, or had children well after the claimed marriage date.
Johannes was the father of one known child, Altie Cornell, born 1692 by his known wife Lammertje Abramse Brinckerhoff.
