It is likely that these
autosomal DNA
test-takers will share some percentage of DNA with Roelof:
(1) Christening date in biography should be 1 Jan 1647, not 1 Jan 1647/1648.
(2) Marriage record in the biography should be about 1670 (the 12 April 1671 date is when the first child was christened).
(3) Death date of 26 August 1688 should be removed unless a good source can be found giving that date.
(4) son Aldert (b. 1684) probably died young and son Aldert (b. 1685) was probably the one who grew to adulthood and married.
(5) Click on the G2G link for more information on whether Roelof died after 1708 (witnessed his niece's baptism) and after 1709 (apparently on Tax List of 1709).
Kiersted-32 and Kierstede-75 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!
Kierstede-84 and Kierstede-75 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. We should keep the full death Died August 26, 1688 in Kingston, Ulster, New York, USA. Thanks!
Kiersted-2 and Kierstede-75 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. I saved the data to the bios. Thanks!
