And after their having declared to be free persons and (not) related to each other in blood, which would prevent a Christian marriage, their banns have been granted.NOTE: Lambert bought a house and 25 morgens (50 acres) of land on 29 Jul 1644, from Cornelis Jacobsen Van Vreelandt on the west side of the Bowery from Canal to Broome Streets. Later, on 16 Feb 1647 he received a grant from
the Dutch West India Company to a lot south of the fort, next to Jan Evertsen.NOTE: NUMBERING SYSTEM: Lambert Van Valkenburg the progenater of the Van

NOTE: there in no further record of Lambert, perhaps he died young
17. Maritje Lambertse or Maria Van Valkenburg ?
SOURCE: It is the opinion of other researchers that Maria Lambertse belongs in this family. There is no absolute proof.
SOURCE: "Early Generation of the Van Deusen Family in America" has the
following:Abraham Isaacs Van Deusen and Anne Sickels has the following children:
Isaac bap 14 Mar 1688 with Marritje Lamberts (Van Valkenburg in brackets) as
his sponsor.Jannetje bap 17 Nov 1695 with Rachel Lamberts (Van Valkenburg in brackets) as
her sponsor.It is my belief that this is where the additional child Maria/Maritje Lambertse Van Valkenburg comes from. Further study is advisable.
