Hi
A great portion of data on Geni for the van Boerum and related families is wrong. I would strongly advise not to use this information. Example. Jacob WIllemse van Boerum was not born 1676 as his parents married in 1684, he had only 3 sons born 1685-1698 namely Johannes (Jan) Charles (Karel) and William. He did not have a son Jacob. The census of 1698 shows Gertruyd van Boerum (his widow) in Flatbush with only 3 children these 3 sons have further recordings. I have a very accurate database for my family's direct ancestor Willem Jacobsz van Boerum 1617-1688 and I am sharing data by posting articles on rootsweb.com, ancestry.com from time to time, I find Geni not user friendly and will not post my data here. You can contact me, if I have time I will give you accurate information.
