Notes:

The only source for the 1746 birthdate and the 1830 death date appears to be an old DAR application. No sources were used. No sources can be found. The Joseph Degroat of Ulster County in the New York Militia listed an age of 24 in August of 1776. That would be a birth year of 1752. We do not know if that is the same Joseph Degroat. A Joseph Degroat appears on the Ulster County Census in 1790, 1800 and 1810. As it appears our Joseph was living in Quebec during that time period, it does not seem to be the same Joseph.

Heinrich/Henrich/Henry Ruiter (Joseph's father in law) a loyalist who fled to Ontario has mentioned his 'son-in-law Joseph Degroat' on some documents in Quebec. As we do have autosomal DNA matches through other children of Joseph and through other children of Henry Ruiter, It makes sense that our Joseph is the Joseph in Quebec with his wife and her father, Henry Ruiter.

The connection between Joseph and his assumed father, Pieter De Groot is very weak. Pieter DeGroat has one thrulines match through his son Johannes, however shared matches on that match do not indicate any other Degroat connections. Interestingly, thru Joseph's granddad we show 2 thruline connections thru Joseph's brother Johannes which both show shared matches indicative of Degroat ancestry. Perhaps Pieter's brother, Johannes is the father of Joseph. Although we have Johannes birth record, we have no proof he married and had children. His granddad's will did not mention a child named Johannes.

Joseph married Hannah Ruiter. Hannah (daughter of Henrick Ruiter and Rebecka Daat) was born on 4 Mar 1774 in Schaghticoke, Rensselaer, New York, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Other Events:

• Name: Annatje Ruiter
• Reference Number: 6248
• Baptism: 1774, Schaghticoke, Rensselaer, New York, USA; Age: 0

Notes:

baptised as Annatie/Annatje Ruiter at the Dutch Reform Church in Schaghticoke, Rensselaer, New York, USA. Some documents in Quebec of her father Henrich Ruiter mention his 'son-in-law' Joseph de Groat. In his book Rick Ashton "The life of Henry Ruiter" on page 52 assigns Joseph de Groat to his daughter Gertrude. He does not assign a husband to Hannah. We believe he erred, as the specific daughter who married Joseph De Groat was not mentioned in any records that he had seen. I do not know what his reasoning was.
