   "Maria Vielè wife of Dowe Aukes and her two children killd, (3)

   and his Negro Woman Francyn, (1)

   Maria Alolff Wife of Cornelis Vielè Junr Shott." (1)

These five persons were killed in one house, standing on the south corner of Mill lane and State street next the ancient church. Aukes kept an Inn there; Vielè was uncle of his wife and subsequently became heir of property.

At the same time Arnout Cornelise Vielè, brother of Aukes' wife, was carried away to Canada.

List of ye People kild and Destroyed by ye French of Canida and there Indians at Skinnechtady twenty miles to ye Westward of Albany, between Saturday and Sunday ye 9th day of February, 1689/90.

am quoting an old book on the Viele family, "Sketches of Allied Families: Knickerbacker-Viele, Historical and Genealogical," by Kathlyne Knickerbacker Viele, Tobias A. Wright, printer and publisher, New York, 1916. She also wrote "Viele, 1659-1909, Two Hundred and Fifty Years with a Dutch Family of New York;" that was published by the same publisher in 1909.

"The name of Suster, wife of Cornelis Cornelisen Viele of Schenectady was Suster Bous (Bouts). She was without doubt the daughter of Hendrick Lambertse Bout, alias Sassian. Bout settled early in Schenectady upon land called Poversens Landeryn lying mainly upon the first lock west of the city. Part of this land he sold 27 September, 1692, to Douve Aukes for 60 beaver at 8 guilders each 'for his son Cornelis Viele and removed to Claverack.' On the 14th of February, 1703/4, Aukes transferred this land to Cornelis Viele and the same day Jan Bout, son of Hendrick Lambertsen Bout confirmed the same to Aukes. The island called Sassians also came into the possession of the Viele family who long owned it and gave it their name. On 28 July 1700, Suster, daughter of Cornelis Viele and Debora Van Petten was baptized in Schenectady and her sponsors were Douve Aukes and Suster Bous. This can be no other than the mother of Cornelis Viele and it appears probable that Suster Bous (Bouts) married Douve Aukes after the death of Cornelis Cornelisen Viele. This would make it perfectly natural that Douve Aukes should have made Cornelis Viele his heir. The break in the records would account for the marriage not being noted. In 1697 Douve Aukes is recorded as being the head of a family in Schenectady in which there were two adult women. Douve Aukes continually in legal papers calls Cornelis Viele his son and it would appear likely that when Douve Aukes took over the Viele Inn corner of Mill and State Streets in Schenectady, he married the widow as well as adopted the son of Cornelis Cornelisen Viele. The discovery of Suster Bous' (Bouts) family name does away with the theory that she was "possibly of Indian blood." The first wife of Douve Aukes was Maria Arnoutse Viele, his adopted son was the cousin of his first wife and his second wife her aunt by marriage.
