Jan Lubbertsen. The first mention of him in the rec- ords is under date of Sept. 8, 1654, when he was appointed to a clerkship in the Secretary's office of the Director and Council of New Netherland.1 On Dec. 5, 1654, he was granted a patent for a tract of twenty-five morgens (fifty acres English) of land on the west side of the North river, between Gemoenepaen and the Kil van Kol, eighty rods front and rear, and 187} rods in depth.2 He was thius located among others of liis name. Gov. Philip Carteret gave Jan Lubertse a patent, May 12, 1668, for five tracts of land at Gemoenepaen and vicinity, much of which remained in the family for a century thereafter.3 The privilege of a small burgher of New Amsterdam was conferred upon him, April 14, 1657.4 Having sought an appointment as clerk in the public office, the Council refused his application, March 19, 1658.5 Thus rebuffed, he turned his attention to a worthier occupation, and on Aug. 13, 1658, was licensed "to keep a school in New Amsterdam, to teach reading, writing and cyphering."6 He was doubtless a young man at this time. Having settled down to teach the children of New Amsterdam, his next step was to take a wife in the person of Magdaleen (Magdaleeutje, Leentje) Theunis, from Voorsthuysen. The marriage is recorded in New Amster- dam, June 7, 1659. Let us trust that the schoolmaster's pupils were given a holiday, the better to rejoice over his wedding. In the marriage record he is designated as from Edam. His children appended to his Christian name the designation van Blerkom: thus, Pieter Janse van Bler- kom, or van Blaricum. "Blaricum is a village of eight hundred inhabitants, along a paved highway near the charmingly situated, richly wooded Laren," and is in the extreme southeast corner of the Province of North Hol- land, about four miles southeast of Amsterdam, and within half a mile of the Zuyder Zee. "Upon an elevatiou, the Kooltjesberg, or Tafelberg, near Blaricum, there was form- erly a round stone tablet, with a white marble slab, on which were engraved the names of sixty-four places or villages vis- ible from the summit. This height affords perhaps the most delightful view to be had in the whole country, and in the summer time, especially when the buckwheat is in blos- som, is visited by many people."7 On the shore of the Zuy- der Zee, near Blaricum, is an important fishing village of 2,500 inhabitants, called Huizen, which is, so to speak, the seaport of Blaricum. Edam is a still more important sea- port, on the Zuyder Zee, four or five miles in a straight line north of Blaricum. It is probable that Jan Lubbertszen and his bride both were natives of the village of Blaricum, but in emigrating to America one set sail from voort t' Hui- zen (before Huizen-the Houses), and the other from the seaport of Edam. This would account for the description

HISTORY OF PATERSON.
in the marriage record, and would also explain why their children assumed van Blaricum as a surname. Magdalena is always called Jans or Janse in the records of the baptisms of her children; this would indicate that her father's Chris- tian name was Jan; perhaps he was called Jan Theunis- sen.1 There is reason to believe that Jan Lubbertsen set- tled at Bergen soon after his marriage, and probably several years before. In 1662 he subscribed six florins toward the support of a minister at Bergen.2 He was among the re- monstrants, in 1662, against fencing in certain lands at Ber- gen, 3 affixing his mark to the protest, which does not look well for a schoolmaster. He was appointed, Feb. 21, 1664, one of the seven commissioners to fortify Bergen, by erecting a block house at each gate.4 His wife died at Ber- gen, Sept. 4, 17II; he probably died subsequently. Family tradition says that Jan was a Captain; if so, he doubtless commanded in the militia at Gemoenepaen; or, he may have won the title in the expedition against the Indians, in 1663. At all events, his children are sometimes called in the rec- ords, Johannis Janse Kapt or Capteyn; Willem Janse Kapt, Lubbert Janse Kapt, etc., meaning "Johannis, son of Cap- tain Jan," etc. In looking through an index of names the genealogist would scarcely expect to find the ancestors of the Van Blarcoms under this head. Jan Lubbertsen Van Blaricum had issue:
