exact transcriptions of the original records.)

Reformed Dutch Church (Flatbush, Kings, NY)

1678. May 12. Heyltje, child of Gisbert Jans, Sophia Janz V. Putten. Witnesses: Elsje Barents, Jan Aukes.

1678. May 12. Jacobus 5 1/2, Judith 2 5/6, Jan 1 1/4; children of Jan Wouters V. der Bosch, + 2nd wife ,Weintie Peters, who came from Stanford(writing error "Branford), New Eng.

Jan Woutersen Van Den Bosch had been away in Connecticut for many years, and was unable to have his children baptized in the Reformed Dutch Church. When he returned, his daughter Sophia Janz Van Putten and her husband Gisbert Jans may have invited Jan Woutersen to be a sponsor at the baptism of their daughter Heyltje. Jan Woutersen took the opportunity to have his three children baptized. Putten must have been the name of the town in the Netherlands where she was born, just as Bosch was the name of the place where her father had been born.
