Teunis was baptized at Kingston, New Amsterdam September 22, 1706.[citation needed]

"To Teunis and Gerritje there came through their mother a very considerable property for those times, for Jan Mattysen was a prosperous man, nor did he discriminate in favor of his sons as was customery, but all his children shared equally in his estate." …

Meaning, his mother was Sara Jans, daughter of Jan Mattysen.

Jan Tyssen

So the record as “ Sara Mathyse” is curious.
