CHILDREN OF AUKE REYNIERSEN (5) AND IDA VONK:
16. REYNIER (sup.); m. Geertje Volleman. The baptismal record has not been
located, but, from the fact that this Reynier named his first son "Auke," it
is believed that he was a son of Auke. He was a member of the Kings co.
militia in 1715. A list of the members of a Hillsborough (Millstone) Reformed
Dutch church in Somerset co., N. J., prior to 1769, includes the names of
"Rynier Van Hengelen" and "Geertje Van Galen, wife of Rynier van Hengelen."
The "Van Galen" is probably an error in transcribing, which should be
Volleman. Geertje was probably the dau. of Barent Volleman, keeper of the
jail and courthouse at Flatbush, L. I., in 1696. (For ch., see infra).
