Roosa Chart

The name den Jongh is Dutch for Young. Wyntie was alledgedly a widower when she married Aldert. She received 320 acres of land in recognition of her spouse's public service. She was referred to as Wilhelmina or Lavinia. Her first spouse's name is listed as Aagje Krom. NYG&BR IXX, January 1939; Notes of the Roosa-DeJongh Families" by Dirk De Young, former American Consul at Amsterdam, Netherlands, page 33-34

The Oct. 1938 issue of the NYG&BR contains an article on the Roosa-DeJongh families of America, of interest to all who descend from Aldert or Alert Hymanse Roosa and wife Wilhelmina De Jongh, early settlers of Ulster Co., New York. There are noted references to this family in previous issues. The author states he has authentic material on the family the traces the ancestry of the wife of Aldert/Albert back to 1500. This is the branch of President Franklin D. Roosevelt's lineage also. The Wyntje Ariens De Jongh lineage is : V. Adrian De Jongh born about 1500 IV. Adrian De Jongh, born about 1530 III. Meerten Adrians De Jongh, born about 1560-70 II. Adrian Meertense De Jongh, born about 1600 I. Wilhelmina (Wintje) Ariens De Jongh, born about 1630. Her brother, Arien Ariensen De Jongh, was the burgomaster of Herwijnen, and held the power of attorney of her husband, Aldert. The following records to support the above were extracted from the Gerechtelijke Archiven vande Gerichts ?ank van Tuil of Gelderland, 1588-1681, the judicial archives of the District Court of the district that embraces Herwijnen. (1.) June 29, 1664 : Arien Ariensen De Jongh (brother of Wyntje) conveyed land in Herwijnen to Peter Jans Beuschem, by virtue of power of attorney given him by Alert Hymensen Roosa on Feb. 26, 1660, and the security given to bind the transaction was Alert Hermansen's interest in the estate of the late Arien Meertensen De Jongh, to assure the buyer that any taxes on the same back as far as 1626 would be paid. The estate mentioned was apparently that of the father of Wilhelmina De Jongh, wife of Alert Roosa, as he would have acted for her. This documents also indicates that Arien Meertensen De Jongh was the owner of the land as early as 1626. It reveals that the father of Arien Meertensen De Jongh was Meerten. (2.) March 3, 1660 : Aldert Hymanse Roosa, livinf in Herwijnen, conveyed half a tract of land as yet undivided between heirs of Govert Ariensen De Jongh, in Hellouw (a mile or so from Herwijnen) and again he pledged his interest in the estate of the late Arien M. De Jongh as security for the fulfillment of the contract. Ot's further proof that the wife of Aldert was the daughter of Arien Meertensen De Jongh. The DeJong family owned large fowler preserves in Hellouw in the seventeenth century. (3) March 20, 1637 : Jan Cornelise van Munster conveyed land in Hellouw to Meertin Arien De Jongh, from which we may infer that Meerten De Jongh, of an earlier period in that locality, was the father of Arien Meertensen De Jongh, the fath

r of Wilhelmina De Jongh. (4.) April 26, 1632 : Joris Ariensen De Jongh made a conveyance of land in Herwijnen, and gave as security for the contract his interest in the estate of his grandfather, Joris Ariensen De Jongh. This document proves that the above conveyance was, as early as 1632, in Herwijnen, had a great grandfather Adrian De Jongh, who must have beeen born circa 1500 or earlier, and who was probably the great, great grandfather of Wilhelmina. Other De Jong families in Holland claim that (Nederlandsche Leeuw, 1922, page 283, & Vol. I, pg 457). (5.) Jan. 11, 1631 : Adrien Evertsen Groot, an heir of Jan Adriensen Groot, conveyed land in Herwijnen to Adrian Adriensen Joriszoon De Jongh - Adrien, son of Adrian, son Joris, son of Adrian De Jongh, which again throws the De Jongh ancestry of that locality back to Adrian De Jongh born not later than 15?0. Although the name of this family of De Jonghs was sometimes spelled de Jong or D'Jong, in the judicial archives it was almost always De Jongh.
