Kris, I was excited to see your message on the Van Der Werken family. I descend thru Roeloff G. Van Der Werken and Geertruy Jacobse Van Oostrant's daughter, Maritie Roeloffse Van Den Werke, who md Jan Kidney (Cittene) "Van Barbados". Where did you get the ref to the ship and the date they came to America? I had never seen this before!!! Did it come from Gen. of 1st Settlers of Ancient Co. of Albany by Prof. Jonathan Pearson? I'm in SLC, UT . If so, I could likely find it at the Fam. Hist. Libr. here. I am too looking for some record of the immigrant's birth since he was an exact town in the Netherlands in 1642. Please email me .Tks Steve M. Hall
