My Note: It is unknown if Sarah Reynolds was married to Burgher Houk prior to her marriage to Roelof Vandecar. But, is seems Roelof Vandecar is not the biological father, but rather a father who adopted John Huyck Van De Car when he married John's mother, Sarah Reynolds.
I did run into a source that said exactly that. But, I haven't been able to locate is since then, and I didn't seem to save it to any of the significant profiles. I am still looking for it.
