• Notes

  The following Hartenbergh family (in many instances the name has been erroneously given in published records as Hardening, but the original records show Hartenbergh) has not been connected with the family of Gerrit Jansz Hardenbergh, the settler in Albany. It would seem, however, that they might belong to the same stock, possibly connected in the Fatherland. The name Gerrit also occurs in this family, although this may probably be traced to the wife of the progenitor, Grietie Gerrits. It is perhaps more than a coincidence that the Hoagland family, of which two members married into this family, came from Maarsenveen, a small village (159 inhabitants in 1632) next to Maar’ sen from where, as we have seen, Gerrit Jansz Hardenbergh hailed. The family is first met with in Jamaica, Long Island, and afterwards settled at Wolver Hollow, Oyster Bay, L. I. The ancestor of the family seems to be: 1. Johannes Hartenbergh, who was betrothed at Flatbush, Du. Ref. church, on June 3, 1693, to Grietie Gerrits. He is not listed among the freemen of Jamaica in 1688 and not mentioned by his last name, but perhaps hidden under a patronymic, in the published records of Jamaica. Among those subscribing to a fund for building a Dutch church at Jamaica in 1715 is --------- Hardenburg (Hist, of Queens Co. publ. in 1882 by Munsell Co.).
