(XIX) BENJAMIN SCHOONMAKER, fourth son of Jochem Hendricksen Schoonmaker? and Anne Hussey, baptized April 19, 1702; died July -, 1776; married, first, CATRINA DePuy by whom he had ten children, but according to the Dood Kleek* records of the Rochester Dutch Reformed Church, Benjamin buried most of his large family prior to 1760. His second wife was JENNEKE SCHOONMAKER of Minisink. No children.
In his will recorded in the Surrogate's office in New York city, he leaves all his lands, buildings, etc., to his son Cornelius: £600 and two slaves to his grandson, Benjamin Schoonmakers, in trust, and to his widow, Jenneke, he leaves two slaves, an annual income, and a specified support to be provided by his son, Cornelius.
In 1758 Benjamin Schoonmaker built the old stone house in Accord now, in 1906, known as “Appeldoorn," and occupied as a summer house by his lineal descendant, Cyrus Schoonmaker of New York city. This property is a piece of the original tract, known as the Rochester patent, owned by Jochem Hendrickse Schoonmaker and granted to him in 1703 by Queen Anne.
