THE DOREMUS FAMILY.
The signature is an indecipherable scrawl, that looks like an attempt to write Cornelis.
No account has been found of the death of Jannetje Joris, the widow of Cornelis Doremus.
Second Generation.
Cornelis Doremus and Jannetje Joris had children:
I. Cornelis, b. in Middelburg;1 m. Rachel Pieterse (b. and 1. at Bergen), Aug. 12, 1710, at Bergen. He lived on the Wesel road, next north of Crooks avenue, but after- wards removed to Peckamin river, near Cedar Grove. He was elected a deacon in the Acquackanonk church in 1730, being the first of the name to hold office in the church. Having been elected constable in 1756, he modestly de- clined to serve, and was fined five shillings for his failure to qualify.
II. Johannes, b. in Middelburg; m. Elizabeth A. Ak- kermans, Aug. 19, 1709; she was b. at Bergen and lived at Hackensack at the time. In 1754 the Legislature passed an act to naturalize Johannes Doremus.2 Was this the same person ? He settled at Lower Preakness as early as 1717, probably, 3 but in his latter days seems to have lived at Paramus, where he resided when he made his will, which bears date July 5, 1754, and is witnessed by Deyrck Dey, Nicholas Kip and Philip Schuyler; it was proved Feb. 7, 1758. He gives his wife Elisabeth all his estate, with power to sell; the remainder to go as follows: to son Cor- nelus "all my Realle Estate with the Wive Loume and Couppers toules4 wich he is to pay eighty pounds York mony to the rest of my children hereafter named and that four years after my wife's decease;" to eldest son's son John, five shillings "for his fathers which is deceased birth- right and twenty pounds to the children of my son Abra- ham, John and Catharine." Executors-son Cornelus and son-in-law Michiel Hertie.5 Signed, "I. D."
III. Thomas, bap. April II, 1687, at Bergen; m. An- neke Abramse Ackermans, 6 Oct. 4, 1712. The record says he was born and lived at Acquackanonk, and she was born
1 That Cornelis was the eldest son appears from the special legacy given him in his father's will, evidently for his birthright. The record of his marriage states that he was born in Middelburg.

3 In a deed from the legal representatives of the heirs and devisees of Thomas Hart, late of London, deceased, to Derrick Dey, Oct. 9, 1717, for 600 acres of land at Lower Preakness, the tract is described as "be- ginning at the southeast corner of Johannes De Riemers land on Sing- hack brook," and from the rest of the description it would seem that Doremus must have owned at least 200 acres .- Bergen County Deeds, C, 139. The spelling De Riemer, in this deed, was doubtless the work of a New York attorney, to whom that name was familiar as belonging to a prominent family in that city. It is the only instance where Doremus was so metamorphosed.

6 THE ACKERMAN FAMILY.
Among the fifty-four passengers who sailed from Amsterdam, Sept. 2, 1662, for New Netherland, in the ship Fox, Captain Jacob Huys, we find enrolled: " David Ackerman, from the Mayory of Bosch, and Wife and six children."1 From the fact that no subsequent mention is made
at Bergen and lived at Ackensak. He settled near the head waters of the Peckamin river, on the portion of the Garret Mountain tract given to him by his father's will. His allot- ment was described in subsequent deeds as "the south- westerly corner of the Acquackanonk mountain land." It included at least part, if not all, of the Cedar Grove mill sites. He was chosen one of the constables of Essex coun- ty in 1725.
IV. Jannetje, bap. June 4, 1691, at Bergen; m. Frans Oudtwater, Oct. 22, 1715. He was born in New York and lived at Monachky at the time; she lived at Acquackanonk; she d. prior to 1726; he m. 2d, Johanna Zanders. Issue: I. Catharina, b. April 10, 1718; 2. Jannetje, b. Aug. 29, 1722; 3. Marietje, b. March 20, 1724.
V. Joris, m. Marretie Berdan, March 16, 1717. The record says that he was born and lived at Acquackanonk, and that she was born at N. Amersfort and lived at Acken- sak; he d. in 1733; she m. 2d, Jacob Tisort (Tietsoort), Dec. 6, 1733; he was b. at Acquackanonk and lived at Pomptan; she was l. at Priekenis. This second marriage did not turn out happily for her children. Joris removed to Preakness. By deed (unrecorded) dated Dec. 4, 1723, Rip Van Dam, sen., and Rip Van Dam, jun., of New York, attorneys of Priscilla and Mercy Benthall, devisees of Thom- as Hart, late of London, deceased, for £270 N. Y. money, conveyed to Georges Du Remos and Cornelius Kip, a tract of land at Perekenes: "Beginning at the south end of the land of Mdme. Brackhuls at a beech tree standing near by the run from thence W. by N. 20 chains to a stake there standing; from thence N. 73º E. along the marked trees to a stake there standing, 90 chains; thence W. 72º N. along David Danielson's line as the trees are marked to a white oak tree marked on four sides near by the run II2 · degrees south along the run 30 chains; then N.
N. E. along the run 23º to the place where it first begun; coutaining 600 acres, or thereabouts."1 As a matter of fact, the boundaries embraced much more than 600 acres, owing

of David Ackerman in the records, it is inferred that he did not survive the voyage.1 He came from the village of Berlicum, which is described as " quite pleasant, but small, having a neat and handsome church with a lofty spire, and many fine houses."2 It is in the south of Holland, in the northeastern part of the Province of North Brabant, on the river Aa, also near the great South William canal, and is barely a mile from s' Hertogenbosch, the capital of the Province, which gives its name to the surrounding country-the Mayory of the Ducal Forest, or Bois le Duc. The name Ackerman (now written Akkerman in Holland) signi- fies a husbandman, and indicates the occupation of David's more or less remote ancestors. He was one of the few immigrants of the day who could boast a surname which was not merely a patronymic.
Second Generation.
David Ackerman had children (all b. in Holland):
I. Lysbeth, b. 1642; joined the church in New Amsterdam, Jan. 6. 1663; m. Kier Wouters (Wolters), widr. of Jannetje Jans, of Harlem, Jan. 20, 1668.
1 Riker's Harlem, 559.
2 Terwen, 484. The spelling of the name distinguishes it from Ber- likum or Belkum, which is in Friesland.

HISTORY OF PATERSON.
partly to careless surveying and partly to the custom of making allowance for waste land. To settle any question as to the title, on account of the excessive quantity of land, Lewis Morris Ashfield, eldest son and heir- at-law of Richard Ashfield, of New York, deceased, by deed dated May I, 1754, for £60, released all claim in the premises.1 The will of George Doremus, of Preak- ness, dated March 25, 1733, witnessed by Johanes Dore- mus, Isaack Kip and Cornelius Kip, was proved Oct. 20, 1733. He gave his eldest son, Cornelis, forty shil- lings for his birthright. To his wife, Marritie, all his lands during widowhood, "provided that when my eld- est son shall come to the age of one & twenty years his equal share or dividend of all my lands shall devolve unto him he paying yearly unto his mother, one fourth part of the wheat Rye Indian Corn and Buckwheat he yearly raises upon said land and the share of all the rest of my children shall devolve unto them respectively when they come to the age of one & twenty years;" after-born. children to share equally. Executors-his brothers, Cornelius and Thomas, and his wife's brother, John Berdan, jun., and Cernant (Coenrad?) Berdan.2
