Note: Marriage Records (1660-1809); Baptism Records (1660-1809); Burial Records (1696-1881). The Kingston Reformed Dutch Church was the central repository for all records of marriages and baptism conducted by circuit-rider Domines throughout Ulster and Orange counties of NY; Sussex County, NJ, and parts of Pike County, PA, until local churches were built and staffed. This occurred between 1735 and 1745 depending on the area.

Hi Ellen, I was wondering the same thing myself and unfortunely I can't answer your very good question because I just recently adopted this profile and was wondering the same thing, so if you ever do find out please do let me know! Thanks!
I'm perplexed about the choices of LNAB and Current Last Name on this profile. His father was using a patronymic at his baptism, so to find his LNAB we go to he earliest records for him. Apparently there is no marriage record. The first child's baptism has the name Heremans, so I think that is his LNAB. Later records use Heermans.
I don't see any records calling him Heromansen of Heermanse, which were the LNAB and Current Last Name, respectively. I changed the Current Last Name to Heermans, but before changing the LNAB I want to know what the basis was for Heromansen.
