When Cornelis was only seven, his father having perished at sea,
his mother leased the house and moved to Albany, where they
lived in what was for then a comfortable home, situated on what

Previous to his marriage Cornelis bought a house from Willem Jansen for which he paid 85 good, whole, merchantable

the grantor acknowledges he is fully paid and satisfied." This

or Fort Orange, now Albany. Following his mother's second
marriage he went to live with his uncles, Peter and Jonas, sons of
Domine and Anneke Janse Borgardus* They were living at the
time in a house next to their mother's, a site later occupied by
the Albany Evening Journal When several years later Peter
removed to Kingston, Cornelis accompanied him and married
there Rachel DeWitt, in 1691, a daughter of Tyerck Classen DeWitt. Cornelis was owner of a vessel employed in carrying freight on the Hudson River.
