http://www.fulkerson.org/1-vigne.html information on this family. ID: I15086 Name: Rachel Vigne 1 2 Sex: F Birth: 1623 2 Death: 1663 2 Reference Number: 15086 Note: Rachel Vigne (1623-1663) The following is from the website of a descendant of the Vigne family, Bob Fulkerson: The youngest daughter of Guillaume Vigne and Adrienne Cuevillier, Rachel, was born in Leiden, Holland, and was baptized on March 16, 1623 at the Leiden Walloon Church. Translation from French: "Baptized 16 March 1623 [n.s.], Rachel daughter of Guillain Vigne. Witnesses Henri Lambert, Pierre de Fuche, and Marguerite Vigne." In 1639, Rachel had the misfortune to marry Cornelis Van Tienhoven. Although he was a highly-placed Dutch West India Company official, he turned out to be a murdering, philandering scoundrel. Cornelis drowned or absconded in 1656, leaving Rachel a 33-year-old widow with three young children and pregnant with a fourth. He also left a great deal of property and three houses. In 1657 Peter Stuyvesant initiated the Burgher system [long used in Holland] which established 2 privileged classes: the Small Burghers and Great Burghers. Small Burghers had the right to engage in business. Great Burghers could conduct business and were exempt from common arrest. Many citizens [including Abraham Ver Planck] paid the 20-guilder fee to become Small Burghers; Rachel was among the 20 who paid 50 guilders and passed Stuyvesant's scrutiny to become Great Burghers. Her privilege did not protect her against everything. She died in 1663 at the young age of 40. Rachel had two children who survived childhood: Dr. Lucas Van Tienhoven [1649-1713?] - married Tryntje Bording. They lived on Pine Street in New York City, in what is now a district of skyscraping banks and insurance companies. Their 10 children were: Rachel, Capt. Nicholas, Susanna, Cornelia, Sara, Johannes, Cornelis [1st, died young], Cornelis [2nd, also died young], Lysbeth, and Cornelis [3rd]. Their descendants are among our family of cousins today. Jannetje [1657-?] - baptized 20 May 1657, married John Smith by 1685. He died in 1693. The inventory of his estate on 18 August of that year included: 1 negro woman cook and her child, 2 bibles, 2 gold rings, 12 silver spoons, 2 silver buckles, 1 silver porringer [a bowl with a handle] and some household goods. Jannetje owned land near her brother's on Pine Street. They were believed to have had three children, whose names are not known for certain. One may have been the John Smith who married Judith Outman in 1708.
