The children of Gerrit Hendricksen were known as Hendrick Gerrit- sen, Huybert Gerritsen, Jobannes Gerritsen, etc., until about 1700, wben they assumed the name Blauvelt, and were usually, but not al- ways, called Hendrick Gerritsen Blaauwvelt, Huybert Gerritsen Blaauw- velt, etc. Blaauwvelt is the Dutch for Blue field. Why they were so called, instead of Van Deventer, after the town wbence their father came, does not appear.
