Notes

Posted Mar 2, 2014 by Joyce Bennett
Adrien "Arie" Cornelissen Van Schaick, son of Cornelis Aertsen and Belitje Hendricks, was baptized 9 July 1642 at New Amsterdam.

“Captain Adrien "Arie" Cornelissen Van Schaick, a native of New Amsterdam, married Rebecca Idens in Brooklyn Church on 27 February 1662. She was a daughter of Ide Thonise of Noordigen, Holland.” It seems possible that “Thonise” or Teunis was not the patronym of Rebecca’s father (who apparently never came to America), because it was the patronym of her mother, Teuntje Teunis. Teuntje Teunis “married first a man named Ide ----, as his children were known as Idens or Idensen. The son of his son adopted the surname van Huyse, so it is easier to think of him as Ide van Huyse. He probably died in Holland, and after his death his widow and her three children came to New York. She married second Jacob Hellakers, or Jacob Swart, probably in New York…”

“Arie was a farmer, magistrate, soldier, and in later years, an innkeeper. He received a Commission as Captain of Foot from Governor Leisler on 16 December 1689. The first military experience of Arie took place in 1683 when the militia of Harlem was organized with Nicholas William Stuyvesant (son of the former Governor) as Captain. Arie was appointed Ensign.

“Arie was appointed Magistrate for the ‘Outside People’ beginning 2 October 1674 by the Dutch Governor, Anthony Colve. New Amsterdam had been renamed New York by the British who had invaded and captured the Dutch colony in 1664. The Dutch upon retaking the Colony from the English in 1673 renamed it New Orange. This effort became a nullity by virtue of the Treaty of 19 February 1674 which gave total possession to the English.

“On 28 October 1689 Arie and others joined Governor Leisler in sending a letter to the Magistrates in Albany requesting permission to quarter a detachment of the militia in Albany as protection against attack by the Indians. Among his other official positions, Arie was one of the twenty-four member Committee of Freemen and Council of War. Arie was Assistant Alderman for the Outward in 1684, 1687 and 1692.

“Because of repeated attacks in 1660 by the Indians in the vicinity of Bourie Lane the residents of outlying areas of New Amsterdam were warned to move within the city gates. To counter this warning the residents requested that a village be established on the Stuyvesant Bouwrie which could be more readily defended. The request was granted. The village developed at that location included a church, a blacksmith shop and an Inn. The Inn or Tavern was called the ‘Plow and Harrow,’ and was located at the two-mile stone. The Inn, located on 15 acres, was occupied by Captain Arie for many years.

“Captain Arie purchased a farm at Bloomingdale consisting of about 100 acres. The land lay above the Great Kill. It was bounded on the northwest by the Hudson River, lying west of what is now 10th Avenue between West 70th and West 71th Streets.”

“On August 5, 1694, ‘Adrian van Schaak’ made his will, which was probated on January 1, 1700. In it he mentions his ‘dear wife Rebecca, and his children: Belitje, married to Peter de Groot; Ide, married to Ibel Gootbloot; Cornelia, married to Johannes Pluvier; Elizabeth, married to Garrett Oncleboo; and Dina, who is unmarried.’”

“Rebecca Van Schaick, widow, was pound keeper in the Bourie Division of New York in 1703. In the census of the same year Rebecca was listed as having in her household one grown boy, and one grown girl. In addition, she had two male and one female negroes.”
