Life of Adam Dingman
Adam Dingman is the original emigrant to the New World and is the patriarch of the Old New York Dutch family by this name. Research has indicated that he is the son of Gerrit & Janneke (Teeuwees) Dingman of Haarlem. Christening records in Haarlem indicate he was baptized on the 31 of August 1631, which does not conflict with any records found in New York. Adam Dingman's daughter, Rachel, married Peitre Ostrander and thus this family is linked with the Ostranders that settled in Ontario, Canada. Adam Dingman is profiled in Pearson's classic genealogical work on early Albany settlers which is transcribed here as follows:
" Adam, born in Haerlem in Holland, residing in Greenbush 1663; bought a farm in 1677 in Kinderhoeck of his father-in-law, Jacob Janse Gardenier; m. Aeltie [Alice] Jacobse Gardinier; in 1683 they made a joint will; on March 20, 1720-21 he made a separate will in which he speaks of his sons and daughters (not by name) and son-in-law Pieter Cool. Ch: Jacob; Janneke [Jane] w. of Pieter Barents Cool; Josyntie [Josine], bp. Sept. 28, 1684; Garrit [Gerard], bp. Jan. 16, 1687." [re: pg. 43]. The transport record for Adam Dingman has never been located, leaving the exact date of his arrival unclear. An abstract of Adam's original will confirms Pearson's comments and shows that the information about Adam's origins from Haerlem comes from this document. The will written on the 21st of January of 1720/1 mentions that Adam is sick and weak. He divides his estate evenly among all his children and appoints his son-in-law, Peter Cool of the Manor of Livingston to execute the document. Adam's will is witnessed by Willem Halenbeek, Gysbert Osterhout, and Dirk Halenbeek [re: Albany Will Book, pg. 170-1]. Court Minutes indicate that Adam Dingman was a prosperous freeholder. He purchased land from his father-in-law in Kinderhoek and his name is found in county records, as active in many county positions, denoting some status. In 1671, Adam Dingman is appointed as overseer of building roads, fences and enclosures in his neighborhood. He was called into court to appraise or access damages in several court cases. He is called a "referee", in a case, inspecting and accessing damages as an objective and trusted third party. He was appointed deputy sheriff to replace John Lambertse and re-appointed to this position. This position was probably concerned more with tax collection and probate, than with law enforcement. In 1679 and 1682, Adam was appointed as overseer for the county. Adam and his wife Aeltje Jacobs Gardinier made a joint will on the 19th of November 1683 [re: Albany Records, Book 3: 563-4]. After his wife's death, Adam made a separate will on the 21st of January 1721, which was proved on the 20th of March 1721 [re: Albany Records, Book 4: 165-6]. Karen Warren notes that, "Adam Dingman purchased acreage in Kinderhook from his father in-law in 1677 and again in 1684. He also purchased land from Maes Cornelissen in 1684." Adam Dingman is recorded as a member of the Dutch Church in Albany in 1683; however, land records suggest that the family actually lived in Kinderhook. Adam's father-in-law, Jacob Gardenier, owned significant holdings in both locations, as well as ran goods down the Hudson. This may explain the dual residency, as indicated by surviving records.

Turn your thoughts to 1840, when our other grandfather and grandmother and family (Isaac and Amy Ellsworth Brock), came to Hebron. Can you young people visualize the trip? A yoke of oxen, and six weeks on the road from Grafton, NY to Hebron, Potter Co, PA-- a day's trip, or a little more, with your automobile. Imagine them reaching here and choosing a spot, cutting down trees, and clearing a space large enough, at first, to build a log cabin. Then the real struggle began, to keep the wolf from the door in more than one sense of the word. I've listened to my mother tell how, as a child, she had sat on the door-step and listened to the howling of the wolves close by. The future can never bring anything to us that we should be more proud of than our brave old ancestors, "heroes and heroines."
Mother dear (Mary Angeline Brock Dingman) was only six monhs old when she made that trip. But I fancy she was as happy as any of the weary travelers. Often it was hard to find a place to stop overnight. Grandma said once, they stopped at an inn, but everything was so mysterious and queer, they were afraid to stay after resting the stock. (I think they brought a cow and a calf.) Then they started on the road again. How worn and weary they must have been before they reached Potter Co! ___________________

Origins of the Adam Dingman Family 1631 (Fay Family Tree, Owner: jhargrave06)-
The Dingman family found in Kinderhook and later in Albany, New York can trace their lineage to the original emigrant Adam Dingman (1631-1721) who was a prosperous freeholder in Kinderhook and later Albany. Adam is clearly identified as the patriarch of this old Dutch colonial family by the numerous records he left behind in both Ulster and Albany County. Beyond public records, the Ostrander Family Association has taken an interest in Adam and his ancestry, due to the marriage of his daughter Rachel to Peter Ostrander. The Ostrander Family Association put together an excellent short history on Adam Dingman, which provides us with a good survey of the New York records concerning the early Dingman family. Adam was a native of Antwerp; forced into fleeing his homeland sometime between 1578 and 1580 when the Spanish began their persecution of the Protestants in the Low Lands. Adam took asylum in Amsterdam where his son, also named Adam, is married in 1601. Nothing further is known of the elder Adam or of any of his other children. Though Mrs. Dingman provides good documentation for most of her family history, the actual proof of the elder Adam Dingman and his association with Antwerp is unknown. The marriage record of Adam the younger, does establish that the groom was born in Antwerp; however, his parents are not named on the document.
