Based on circumstantial evidence. "It is this writer's contention that Rebecka was Joost's second wife, the mother of his son Volkert or Folkert. In view of this son's name and later associations, she probably was Rebecca Folkerts, the daughter of Volkert/Folkert Dircksen of Bushwick and his wife Annetje Philips."
