Margariet Blanck (bp.21 Jul 1652-c1692) m.17 Jul 1676 Philip Smith (c1650-1692) Their New York City marriage record "1676 17 Aug; Philip Smith, jm van Chambrits in Engellt; Margareta Blanck, jd van N. Yorke" probably indicates that Philip was from Cambridge, England. Margariet was listed as a member of Dutch Church in New York in 1686. Phillip Smith was a vintner. In 1679, he was half-owner of the sloop Rutter, which traded in the Caribbean. Phillip Smyth, and four others, were certified 9 Dec 1685 by Governor Thomas Dongan to collect the excise tax on all liquors sold in New York. Philip's will was written 20 Jan 1690, naming his wife Margaret and his children Phillip, Margaret, Caetjie, and Mary. When it was proved 10 Dec 1692, in New York City, his wife was also dead, and "Albert Bosch, Clark Smith, and Nicholas Blank, shoemakers, brethren in law to said Phillip Smith" were appointed Administrators. This identifies Clark Smith as Phillip's brother, but I have found no other record of him. The inventory of his estate included a silver whistle and chain, weighing 18 oz. Margariet's brother Nicholas was guardian to his children after his death, and lived in New York City.
