     Christiaen Nyssen was from Holsteyn acc. to his marriage certificate.¹ He married Styntje Pieters on 4 February 1657 at New York City (DRC) (He was Christiaen Nyssen romp, from Holsteyn; she Styntje Pieters, from Coppenhagen.)^2,1

     Cornelis Nyssen was baptized on 25 April 1696 at Brooklyn (DRC) (sponsors: Jeronimus Rapalje and Elsje Snediker; father Dionys Theunissen, mother Helena Cordeljouw.)^1,2

     Neeltje Nyssen was baptized on 22 September 1689 at Flatbush, NY, (DRC) (sponsors: Jaques Corteljou and Mary; father Dionys Tunissen, mother Helena Corteljou. Also reg. in Brooklyn on the same date: sponsors Jaques Cardeljouw and Maria Cardeljouw, father Dionys Theunissen, mother Helena Cardeljouw.)^2,1,3

     Konight had a note in pencil on the death line for Neeltje "Flatbush: 446, Brooklyn:" It is unclear what this signifies, as there is no page 446.⁴ Name variation: Neltie Nyssen.²

     Tunis Nyssen was baptized on 24 April 1687 at Flatbush, NY, (DRC) (sponsors: Dirck Jansen Veerman and Janeke Tunissen Denys; father Dionys Tunessen, mother Leena Cortelyou.)^2,1 He died before 1692.³

     Theunis Nyssen was from Bunnick, in't sticht Van Uytr acc. to his marriage certificate.^2,1,3 He married Femmetje Jans at New York City (DRC.)^2,4,3 (Banns on 11 February 1639/40. He was Theunis Nyssen, jm from Bunninck, in't sticht Van Uytr; she Phaebea Faelix, jd from Jarleston, in Engelt.)^1,2 Theunis Nyssen died in July 1662 at Brooklyn.⁵

     Teunis was in North America as early as 1638. He removed to a farm on Manhattan Island and settled on a farm in Gowanus near Brouwers. He and Femmetje Jans were member of the Reformed Dutch Church in Brooklyn in 1660.^5,6
     Theunis had possibly more children, Aertje, Teunis, James, Joris. On 8 Jun 1667 Jan Cornelisse Buys, widower of Femmetjen Jans dec'd, declared the surviving children of Femmetjen Jans by Teunes Niessen dec'd, to be Eelsyn Teunes, Femmetjen, Jan, Denies, and Corneles Teunesen.^7,3 His parents were Dionysius Cornelisz and Jennichjen Geerlofs. but acc. to Turse they were Nys Denyse and Helena Van Brunt, but that seems wrong.^5,8
     NOTE: James Turse has Geertje Dirks De Nyse as daughter of Theunis Nyssen and his wife. This seems impossble, as Theunis married in 1640, and Geertje has her first child in 1650. Also as daughter of Teunis, Geertje would not be Geertje Dirks.⁹
     Jacob Danielszen, wid. of Neeltje Huygen, and Annetje Minnen, wid. of Corn. Nyssen, marry 5 Nov 1661 in NYDC. Is Cornelis a brother of Theunis? Nothing else connects.^10,11 Name variation: Teunis De Nys.³ Name variation: Teunis Nyssen.³
