I noticed that Rachel's father, Benick Joachim Radcliff, was mentioned in her husband's memorial. But, as usual, the mother was missing! Rachel's mother was Hillitje Hogeboom, d/o Pieter Meus Hogeboom and wife Jannetje Muller.

Rachel's sister Jannetje Radcliff married Rev Eggo Tonckens Van Hoevenberg, the first dominie of the Rhinebeck Dutch Reformed Church. Eggo and Jannetje are my 5th-great-grandparents.* Reference: Find A Grave Memorial - SmartCopy: Nov 19 2021, 8:07:58 UTC
