Solomon Janse
Dutch patronymics is in force here. His surname would have been Janse in the records - he is the son of Janse. His father listed as Jan Evertsen - as the son of Evert. As they came in more contact with "The English", they had to adopt a first name and a surname. This is when the place they came from in the Netherlands came into play as many adopted that as a surname.
