NOTES from [email protected] 14 Jan 1997. Mary was almost of marriageable age when her mother and stepfather emigrated, for she was widowed and remarried to William Ariens Bennet, by about 1636 when their first children was born. Once again she was widowed at about the same time as her mother Altje, for in 1644 they each remarried. The third time they were both more fortunate. Mary married third Paulus Venderbeeck, who was a surgeon, employed by the Dutch West India Company, also a ferrymaster. He died in 1680, leaving Mary a widow yet again, but in her old age. Aeltje left her estate with her third husband to her daughter Mary; perhaps Aeltje's other children were provided for by the estate of Cornelis Cool, their father. Mary probably came to America after 1634, and prior to her second marriage. She probably came with her mother and step-father, Cornelis Lambertse Cool. She may have come with her husband Jacob, who family tradition says worked for the DWIC. He is reputed to have mde several trips back and forth to America.
On Oct 3, 1684, Maria donated two silver beakers to the church at Brooklyn. One of these beakers has been preserved. On Feb 28, 1694, Maria signed a deed. Mabel Spell believed that Maria lived at least 87 years.
Maria inherited property from her mother, her step-father and two husbands.She was a very wealthy widow when her last husband died.
