• Notes

  HISTORY: "Quackenbush Family in America HISTORY: "Quackenbush Family in America" by Rick Quackenbush p. 9 CHURCH RECORDS: She has been traditionally assumed toa be the daughter of a Jan Post. This assumption is apparently derived from the baptism record of her son Isak, where she and her husband are listed as "Jan Quakkelbosch and Magtelt Janz". It is possible that the "Janz" after her name should have read "Jans" meaning "belonging to Jan" (referring to her husband), rather thgan "daughter of Jan". If so a good possiblilty for her parents are Captain Adriaen and Claartje (or Clara) Post, who came from The Hague in the Netherlands to Staten Island in 1650 and were among the founders of the Berrgen Colony in 1655. They had also lived for a time in Brazil. If Machteld was their daughter, it is likelyu that she was born during their stay in Brazil. This theory of the parentage of Machteld Post is supported by the Dutch naming customs, where the first born children are named after their grandparents. If so, Jan and Machteld's son Adriaan was probably born before their son Johannes. 1. "Ancestors of American Presidents," R 1. "Ancestors of American Presidents," Roberts, 1989. 2.
