Hendrik Syourt¹⁰ b. 27 Apr 1735
Johannes Syourt⁸

Margaret names her first daughter Magdaleen, and Pieter and Magdaleen are the sponsors. However, BC-Families also states that she is the daughter of Jan Ecker and Magdalena Vonk (who (2) married Peter Carlock); Margaret was 12 in 1710 (NYC Palatine list), and 15 in 1713 (Hackensack Palatine list)
Jan Ecker and Magdalena Vonk married in 1693; they could have a daughter Margaret around 1695-8, but it is unclear to me, why BC-Families connects Magdalena Vonk to Peter Carlough, as Jan Ecker still has children with Magdalena through 1716, and Pieter and Magdalena came to New York in 1709-10.^6,3,2 Name variation: Margrietje Ekker. Name variation: Margritje Geerlingh Ecker.⁷ Married name: Syourt.
