Willemtje Claesje (?)

F, b. circa 1640
     Willemtje Claesje was born circa 1640 probably at New Amsterdam (Manhattan), New York. Unfortunately, no substanciating evidence has been found.1 Willemtje Claesje married Gysbert Elbertszen Uyt ten Bogaert, son of Elbert Uyt ten Bogaert, circa 1660 in New York. No marriage record has been found for Gysbert & Willemtje. It is possible that they married before they immigrated to this country.
