Note the Utrecht archive has indexed all children born of parents using just patronymics with the patronymic of their fathers as LNAB, this is wrong and we will have to correct this ourselves, so Teunis was a son of Antonis (also named Teunis) so the correct patronymic at the time of his baptism for the child probably was Antonis(sen) or Teunis(sen)

- Note: https://exhibitions.nysm.nysed.gov/albany/index.html Page: Teunis Teunisse Egbertse by Stefan Bielinski Text: Teunis Teunisse may have come to the Albany area as early as 1641.
- By 1654, he had married Egbertie Egberts. The marriage produced at least seven children who probabaly were baptized at the Albany Dutch church in the years prior to the preservation of church baptism records. He was a church member, regular contractor, and frequent baptism sponsor.
- He seems to have supported himself in the building trades - erecting, for example, chimneys and a brick house. In 1679, he was identified as an Albany householder. Four years later, a church list stated that he lived outside the North Gate.
- Teunis Teunisse Egbertse died during the early 1680s. His joint will with Egbertie, identified their seven living children - the youngest then being aged nineteen. It passed probate in August 1685.
