GEDCOM Note
The Annals of Newton by James Riker, Jr. "The family of Norstrand, or Van Norstrand, on Long Island, derive origin from Hans Jansen, who came over in 1640 from Noortstrandt in Holstein, and whose sons adopted the name of the place whence their father emigrated, which time had reduced to the present orthography. Hans. m. in 1652 Janneken Gerrits van Loon, and d. at Flatlands in 1690. His will is recorded both in New York and Brooklyn. He left sons John, Gerrit, Peter, and Folkert, whose descendants, now greatly multiplied, form in point of means and respectability, a valuable part of our population."
