"Then Jan had 2 daughters by Catrina Cornell."

details

Jan (John) Kroesen married Brechjie Bergen first and Catrina Cornell second.

In a reply to my previous posting below excerpts from Frank Swain's work from Spruance Library in Bucks County, Pennsylvania states:

Jan ( John) Kroesen and Catryntje having their daughter Breghie m Peter Wyckoff and then her sister Catherine marrying Peter Wyckoff. 

Frank Swain has Catherine and Peter Wyckoff 's marriage date as 2 Dec 1772. Then it says Peter was in John Kroesen's will 1776 and Peter Wykoff died in 1777, one year after John Kroesen in Somerset Co., NJ.. Jan's will was signed by Abraham Van B(e)uren and Peter Wyckoff.
