SUMMARY OF DATA ON ROSEBOOM ANCESTORS OF EUGENE H. ROSEBOOM (cont.)
The next major source is a Family Bible (see enclosed) in the DAR library in Washington DC. This Bible was originally that of Robert Roseboom (born in 1693, died 1764) and Ryghie Roseboom (original notes written in Dutch). They were 1st cousins as indicated by the dates and names in appendix c and d, Brief History ... and married in 1743, when she would have been 43 years old. Not surprisingly, they died without offspring. Robert's will was probated in 1764 and mentions only his wife, brothers Hendrick, Ahasverus, Geysbert, John, and sister Elsje. Apparently their Bible was passed to Robert Roseboom, the grandson of Robert Roseboom's older brother Hendrick (born Dec. 16 1690, who married Debora (?).
I recall looking up Robert Roseboom's will in the DAR library about 1972 and remember that it said that he was leaving to (?) "my lands in Poughkeepsie, of which I am not now in possession". This ties him to the Appendix (h) in "A Brief History of ....." and an oral tradition in my family that we once owned the city of Poughkeepsie. This land was acquired from the Rosebooms in a well-known court case where the local Episcopalian Church sued and acquired the land since the owners were not living anywhere near it and, they argued, had abandoned it.
The other Bible entries were apparently recorded by Robert Roseboom, and start with "My father, Garret Roseboom born July 19, 1722." This fits with the Somerset County Historical Quarterly vol. 4, p. 143, where a Gerrit was baptized by Hendrick and Debora Roseboom on August 17, 1722 -Readington Reformed Church. The second generation Hendrick mentioned in "Brief History ...." above born in 1790 would have been 33 years old.
Gerrit married Gertrude about 1753 in Albany, Albany, New York, USA. Gertrude was born on 26 Mar 1731 in Albany, Albany, New York, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

SUMMARY OF DATA ON ROSEBOOM ANCESTORS OF EUGENE H. ROSEBOOM (cont.)
Our lineage is through Hendrick Janse's third child Gerrit and Maria Sanders. Their first child Hendrick was born Dec. 15, 1690 and married a Debora (no last name given, see Appendix c. Bible of Gerrit Roseboom).This is not to be confused with the Hendrick of the first generation who married a Debora Staats. Our Hendrick and Debora (?) seem to disappear from the Albany area although there are records of many other Rosebooms in that area up to the present.
At this point the trail becomes thin. The History of Hunterdon and Somerset Counties quotes an earlier Dr. Messler that "between 1681 to 1699 there had arrived from Long Island the following heads of families, mostly of Dutch extraction: ....... At North and South Branch.....Hendrick Roesenboom, .... (p. 561)". This is part of a long list of about 150 names. The source of the 1699 date is not clear.
Hendrick married Deborah Staats in 1721 in Albany, Albany, New York, USA. Deborah (daughter of Joachim Staats and Ryckie Ulrica Van Dyck) was born on 1 Oct 1696 in Greenbush, Rensselaer, New York, USA; died on 2 Oct 1749 in Albany, Albany, New York, USA; was buried in Menands, Albany, New York, USA.
