  	[Francis Brock Descendants pVella.FTW] What Is Known About Adam Dingmans and Aeltje Jacobse Gardinier (from the Dingman Genealogy Info Site) Adam Dingmans was born Aug. 31, 1631 in Haarlem, The Netherlands, the second of five children born to Gerrit Dingmans and Janneke Teeuwese. In his early twenties, Adam left Haarlem and came to North America, apparently the only member of his family to emigrate. He arrived in New Amsterdam (later New York) at about the time the city was transferred from Dutch to English control. By 1655 he had moved up the Hudson River to Albany Co., NY. In 1663, he was living in Greenbush in the same county. He was in his late thirties in about 1668 when he finally married Aeltje Jacobse Gardinier, daughter of Jacob Janse Gardinier. Aeltje, who was 22, had been born in 1646 in Albany Co., and thus was first-generation American. Her parents were among the earliest settlers in the area. In 1670, the first child of Adam and Aeltje was born, a daughter Janneke. In 1671, when Adam was forty-one, he was appointed roadmaster at Kinderhook, also in Albany Co. This was a position of some importance at the time. He still held this position in 1675 when he was also appointed "path and fence viewer". He was also deputy sheriff during 1679. During this time of civic service and employment, a son Jacob was born (about 1675), and a daughter Sara (Sarah) followed about 1677.

Record for Adam Dingman 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. jhargrave06 added this on 27 Mar 2010 gwencir originally submitted this to Cirrincione Family Tree on 27 Aug 2008 [S298] private communication: pvella, (Name: Patty Vella; Location: 1505 Methyl ST, Pittsburgh, PA 15216; Date: 14 May 2001;), Dingman Mattison, MayBell consolidated to (731) From Patty Vella, 14.May 2001, from MayBell Dingman Mattison to be read at a family reunion (1) fact .....

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! ___________________ [S341] Brøderbund Software, Inc., World Family Tree European Origins Vol. E1, Ed. 1, (Name: Release date: September 15, 1997;), Tree #0713.

The other sponsor was Josyna Gardenier Wheeler's brother-in-law Obadiah Cooper, who also happened to be the baptismal sponsor for Samuel Wheeler in 1713. Last Changed: October 19, 2025 G Glenn Wheeler all 14 known children clearly linked to parents via source church records. There are documented Church Baptismal Records for 13 chidlren of the family. They are Jan, Sara, Breechje, Marietje, Thomas, Jacob, Evert, Helena, Henrik, Dorthea, Jackemyntie, and Elizabeth. Robert is the only child that does not have a baptism but his marriage record states he is a son of Evert Weiler of Kinderhook. MANY MANY PEOPLE have added another son named John burn about 1715 as another son. THIS IS INCORRECT. Elizabeth Wheeler daughter of Edward/Evert and Josyna Gardenier marries a man name John Weiler. Thus confusing many people, as the baptismal records of the couple clearly shows a link to the Evert & Josyna Wheeler Family. The link is through the daughter Elizabeth Wheeler not the man JOHN WEILER listed as being born in 1715. If you look at the baptismal records for Kinderhook reformed chuch in 1749 and 1752 (the Chronolgical baptismal book, and not the alphabetical index in family search), you will see that in 1749 & 1752 the mother’s maiden names are listed - which clearly shows John Wheeler and wife Elizabeth Wheeler.
