About Lubbertsen Gijsbert

Lubbert Gysbertsen and his wife Divertje Cornelis had seven children:

The eldest son was Gysbert Lubbersen, born about 1624 in Holland who was ten years old when he came to America with his parents.

Lysbet Thomas married Gysberts Lubberts on 24 February 1655, recorded in the Reformed Dutch Church, New Amsterdam; they were possibly living in Bergen Village, present day Jersey City, Hudson County, New Jersey. She was the widow of Gysbert Lubbertse before 1677, when Lysbeth Thomas and Adriaen Hendrickszen, her second husband, were members of the at Reformed Protestant Dutch Church, Flatbush, Kings Co., Long Island, New York, in 1677 at Midwood.

1. Gysbert Lubberson:

He is of particular interest to us, since under the Dutch naming system he is the only one of the five brothers whose children will bear the last name of Gysbertsen (son of Gysbert). Gysbert Lubbertsen married February 24, 1655 in the Reformed Dutch Church in Bergen, New Amsterdam, the first of his family to marry outside of the Dutch community. His bride was Elizabeth Thomas, an Englishwoman, born in London. Gysbert and Elizabeth were probably living on his property on Bergen Neck at the time of the Indian massacre in September of that year. If so they both survived the attack, but undoubtedly fled to Long Island with his parents. Unlike some other members of his family, Gysbert and Elizabeth elected to stay on Long Island, and not return to their old property on the west side of the Hudson River in Bergen Neck, NJ. On May 14, 1657 Gysbert therefore indorsed his patent (title) on the New Jersey property over to Pieter Jansen Slot, relationship not known but undoubtedly a son of another member of the extended family (Janse).

Although Gysbert Lubbertsen and Elizabeth Thomas were married for 20 years, only four children:

1a. Lubbert Gysbertsen/Gisbertse was the eldest, probably born in Manhattan or Long Island (date unknown) to which his pregnant mother likely fled to escape the Indian massacre in Bergen. In 1696 he inherited, under the will of his step-father Adrian Hendricksen Aten[9], his grandmother’s [SIC: mother's] second husband, the New Jersey land first owned by his grandfather, Lubbert Gijbertze, the original immigrant, ... The 1696 Assessment Roll for Flatbush, L.I., confirms that the younger Lubbert Gisbertse was living there at that time. We do not know if he married and had children. He died intestate 1705 in Burlington Co., NJ.

1b.. Annetje Gysbrechts (the “s” indicating daughter of Gysbert) was the second child. She was born probably in New Utrecht (Flatbush, L.I.). However, she apparently returned to Bergen as a child where she was baptized 10 Sept. 1659 in the Bergen Dutch Reform Church. She was married there 21 Oct. 1683[10] “at N. Orle with certificates from Bergen and L.I.” She had joined the Bergen Reformed Church 18 Apr. 1682 as a young unmarried woman in her own right. Her banns were dated 21 Oct. at Bergen and 26 Oct. at Flatbush. Her young man, Hans Alberts, was described as “from Braunswyk and residing at New Castle, N.J.” From just this it is hard to determine her movements before her marriage, but once again the connection to Flatbush, Long Island is evident. We have no further information on her line.

1c. The third child was Jan (John) Gysbertsen. He was undoubtedly born in Flatbush, but the date is not known. He married before 1697 Hester Grouver, probably in Flatbush, L.I. They had at least three children. Their story will be continued in the chapter entitled “Colonial New Jersey.”

1d. The fourth child was Harmon Gysbertsen. This sounds like an English Christian (biblical) name, but more probably is a variation on the Dutch name Herman. It appears that Harmon was born on Long Island, and named after his grandmother’s second husband Herman/Harmon Eduarz (his second marriage as well). Harmon Gysbertsen’s story will be continued in the chapter on “Colonial New Jersey.” Also, as shown on the Descendancy Chart, Harmon Eduarz first wife had been Jannetze Hendricks Oosteroom, one of Divertje’s grand daughters.

Oldest brother to Jan, Gysbert was born in about 1624, making him 10 years old when the family left Holland. On February 24, 1655, he married Elizabeth Thomas of London, England, in the Reformed Dutch Church in New Amsterdam. Gysbert and Elizabeth had at least 2 children, Lubbert born sometime between 1655 and 1658 and Annatje who was baptized September 10, 1659, in Bergen. No records concerning Gysbert's death or estate have been found.1

From The Land Titles in Hudson County, N.J., 1609-1871

Text: "... The history of this tract henceforth is connected with that of the next Patent. This tract was first granted to Gysbert Lubbertse, Dec. 5, 1654. Land Papers {Albany), H. H., 36, and not to Peter Jansen Slott as mentioned in the text. It may have been granted to Lubbertse by mistake, for on the original Patent which I have seen was endorsed, This Patent must be in the name of Pieter Jansen Slott, by mee, Guysbert Lubbertse, May 14, 1657. By both it was treated as if made to Slott. The tract was 40x375 rods. Slott sold it to Joost Van der Linden, Jan. 30, 1671."
