Immetje Dircks was identified as the wife of Frans Claessen, progenitor of the van Dycks. See the following Geni profiles, which contain errors: Frans van Dyke and Immetje Dircx van Dyke. See also: Richard W. Cook, trustee of the Genealogical Society of New Jersey, "Van Dycks," (South Orange, NJ: 1954): 28. However, the linked pages of the Genealogical Society of Bergen County cite European sources and appear to be much more accurate than this old source.
