  1. 1.  Jacob Bebout was born 1695, Brooklyn, Kings, New York (son of Jan Pietersz Bebout and Metje Beekman); died Abt 1760.

    Notes:

    THE BEBOUT FAMILY IN FLANDERS AND NORTH AMERICA, 1943, by Alexander C Flick, pp 22-3: "JACOB BEBOUT [6704-2448], the second son of John Bebout [6677-2391] and Metye Beekman [6685-2391], was born about 1695, probably in Brooklyn [Kings Co, LI, NY]. He likewise went with his parents from Long Island to Staten Island in 1705. In the Census of Staten Island for 1706 he is recorded as 'Cobus Bebout,' a boy under 16 years of age. If he was born in the year 1695, then he was a mere lad of 11 at that time. Unlike his elder brother Peter [6703-2442], Jacob remained most of his life on Staten Island. Information about his family is more complete than that about Peter. He married in New York City on Feb. 13, 1717, MARY SWEEM [6861-2448] (Swam.. MDC:126). Mary seems to have been the daughter of Anthony Sweem [6859-2443], who made his will June 16, 1719, on Staten Island, leaving all his property to his wife Nealtie [6860-2443] during her life or widowhood. His eldest son, Johannes [6862-2444], was left 5 [English Pounds] 'in full of any pretense as heir at law.' Mary (who is supposedly the wife of Jacob Bebout) and her sisters Elizabeth [6866], Hannah [6867], Rachel [6868] and Leah [6869] received 30 [English Pounds] each. His daughter Elizabeth was given 50 [English Pounds] more than his other children. If his son Cornelius [6865] should ever return, he was to 'share with the rest.' Col. Thomas Farmer and Dr. Johnson of New York City and Goesen Adrainse of Richmond County were named as executors (WNYHS II:212). The will was probated March 10, 1719/20, making it probable that Anthony Sweem's death occurred early in that year. A year before his demise, Jacobus Bebout and Rachel Sweem on March 1, 1718/19, witnessed the baptism of Jacobus Sweem [6864], son of Joh. and Mary (Rus) Sweem [6863-2444] (SI:21). In 1715, the year before his marriage, 'Coverse Bebout,' or Jacob, with Peter Bebout [6703-2442], served in the New Jersey Militia in the Regiment of Col. Thomas Farmer mentioned above (2d Ann. Rep. N.Y. State Historian I:532). During the decade between 1720 and 1730 Jacob Bebout and Mary Sweem had four children baptized in the Reformed Dutch Church on Staten Island: Jacob [6873], July 16, 1721 (SI:34); Maria [6874], March 14, 1724/5 (SI:30); Elizabeth [6875-2450], (Feb. 19, 1716/7, (SI:34), who married on Staten Island Sept. 6, 1755 (NJA-21:45), John Winants [6878-2450]; and Peter [6876], May 15, 1729 (SI:38). There may have been other children, but if so their names have not been discovered. In 1723/4 Jacob Bebout and Mary Sweem witnessed the baptism of Lea, daughter of John Van Der Hoven and Anna Sweem (SI:29). In 1732 Jacob Bebout witnessed the will of his friend Jacques Poillon, a brewer on Staten Island (WNYHS, 3:115). He had his cattle-mark registered on Staten Island in 1735 (NJMis. 1:56). He may have removed to Essex County, N.J., for on June 19, 1759, a Jacob Bebout of that county was granted letters of administration for the estate of Ephraim Fraser, Jr., a soldier of Elizabeth (NJA 32:121). Between 1758 and 1761 he died intestate (Index of Wills, N.J., 1705-1805:17). Little information has been obtained about his children. Jacob [6873-2449], the oldest son, on May 14, 1763, bought 100 acres of land in Somerset Co., N.J., and he and his wife Mary [6877-2449] signed a mortgage as 'Bebaub.' It is possible that this Jacob went to Bedford Co., Pa., for a Jacob Bebout paid a tax there of 11 pence in 1774, and 3/6 in 1775 (Pa. Archives, 3 Ser. 22:74, 106). The Matthew Bebout who lived in the same county as a 'single Freeman' and paid a tax of 15 sh. in 1774 (Pa. Archives, 3 Ser. 22:75) may have been another son or a grandson. He was described as a 'ranger' in the Revolution (Pa., Arch. 3 Ser. 23:233; 5 Ser. 4:599). Just what became of the son Peter [6876], born in 1729, has not been discovered. It is hoped that some members of this branch of the family will work out the line. Since the records of the descendants of Jacob Bebout are so obscure, further consideration of his descendants will be dropped at this place."

  1. 2.  Jan Pietersz Bebout was born 31 Jan 1647, Thielt, Flanders (son of Pieter Bibau and Maria Verkinderen); died Oct 1716, Somerset, New Jersey.

    Notes:

    THE BEBOUT FAMILY IN FLANDERS AND NORTH AMERICA, 1943, by Alexander C Flick, p 10: "JAN BIBAU [6677-2391] (the American progenitor), son of Pieter No. 9 [6653-2381], was bapt. in the Roman Cath. church at Thielt [Flanders] Jan. 31, 1647: Joannes Bibau filius Petr Bibau [6653-2381] fs Simoen et Maria Verkinderen [6674-2381]. His mother died at his birth. He lived at Thielt until his departure for New Netherland. There is a tradition in the American family that the progenitor after having been in New Netherland for some years returned temporarily to his old home to settle an estate. Although we have no direct evidence to prove that this tradition is based on facts, it would seem that at the time of the settlement of his father's estate in 1679, mentioned above, Jan Bibau preferred a cash settlement to a division of the real estate holdings of his father. Is it possible that he intended to sail for the New World shortly after, now that his father had died and for this venture preferred money to property holdings? The Dutch records do not give us any information about him between 1679 and 1687, when he makes again a settlement with his brother-in-law [Pieter Beheyt 6681-2385] on account of a legacy received from his cousin Maeyke Bibau [6655-2373]. ^ This document makes the connection with New Netherlands a definite one and is therefore given herein in full (translated). Notary Abraham de Rijcke at Aardenburg. On the 15 day of 1687 appeared before me, Abraham de Rijcke, Notary Public residing at Aardenburg, in the presence of the witnesses to be named, d'Eersame (the honorable) Jan fs (filus) Pieter Bibou [6653-2381] at present here in this city, well known to me, stating that he has authorized, ceded, transferred and now authorizes, cedes and transfers to d'Eesame Sr. (the honorable Sinjeur) Pieter Beheyt [6681-2385], merchant and burgher living in the aforesaid city, present and accepting the conditions, such rights and power of attorney as was devolved on the comparant, by virtue of a certain last will and testament, made by Mayken bibou [6655-2373], late widow of Clais de Baets [6658-2373], deceased in this city, more fully stated in said testament or last will, passed before Notary Thomas Mattheussen dated . . . (not filled in). The comparant acknowledged to have received from the acceptant by virtue of the afores. legal paper and registered document every penny from the first to the last, and to be well satisfied, and to have been paid in full and gives herewith full acquit and receipt; and as the comparant has been left upon the decease of the aforesaid Mayke bibou, his cousin, as oldest heir (oudste hoir fidaal) a land-in-tenure (leen), being a parcel of land large abt. one half (bunder) acre, situated in the parish of Thielt, outside in the district of Schyerscapelle, the comparant therefore institutes and gives powers of attorney, by virtue of this instrument, to the aforesaid Sr. Pieter Beheyt his brother-in-law, giving him special order, irrevocably to appear before the court of land tenure, under which the aforesaid land-in-tenure resorts, to have the aforesaid land transferred in his name in the style and custom of the aforesaid court; and furthermore to do in a general way and in a special way all that is required, considering the comparant is about to depart from his fatherland, to take up residence under the Lord's blessing, in New Netherland; in consideration and in rememberance of the special services and friendship which the comparant has received from the aforesaid Pieter Beheyt and his wife, the comparant's sister, also in regard to his equipment in connection with his voyage, therefore in order not to remain a debtor to ungratefulness, the comparant has in consideration of special friendship, love and affection, given by his free will, gives and allows therefore to Jannes fs Pieter Beheyt, his nephew (coijn in this case meaning nephew), the aforesaid land-in-tenure, to keep, use and own same as his own; and to appear in the name of the comparant before the aforesaid court of land tenure, to release him in full of the tenure and to invest the aforesaid Jannes Beheyt fs Pieter and his heirs forever with the same and to pass such papers and records as is customary with the aforesaid court; in general and specially to do everything that is required, in the same manner as if he himself were there, could do and see in regard to the transfer of the land-in-tenure. The comparant promises herewith never to revoke the transaction ordered by him by virtue of the clause in the last will and testament and also of his own free will; never to take or allow to be taken any action, directly or indirectly in any way in regard to this, but to regard this proceeding as right, permanent and bonded and of value, without any claims, in ragard to any transaction which his constituent will do or have done in regard to the aforesaid matter; giving him also full acquit of all indebtedness which the comparant has with his brother-in-law Pieter Beheyt as of today, nothing exempt. Done and passed in Aardenburg, without malice, in presence of Jan Dobbelaer [8529-3021], Paulus Servaes as trustworthy witnesses asked to do this, on the day in the month and year as above. J. Bibau 1687" FOOTNOTE ^ "It may be noted that the document does not state Jan bibau living at Thielt, as was the case in other similar instruments, but simply states at present at Aardenburg. However the wording of the instrument indicates a first voyage to New Netherlands rather than a return after a previous sojourn there."

    Jan married Metje Beekman 9 Aug 1690, Fort Orange, New Amsterdam. Metje (daughter of Marteen Beekman and Sussanah Jans) was born 1657, Fort Orange, Albany, New York; died 1716, Staten Island, Richmond, New York. [Group Sheet]

    Notes:

    THE BEBOUT FAMILY IN FLANDERS AND NORTH AMERICA, by Alexander C Flick, 1943, p 8-9: "PIETER BIBAU [6653-2381/2383], son of Symoen Bibau [6645-2369], No. 7, and Catherine [6646-2369], born before 1616, was the only one of the children of Simoen Bibau who remained all his life at Thielt. He was, as had been his father before him, collector for the poor of the Bilkbosch district from 1644-1646 (listed as Pieter bibau zone van simoen). He is the father of the progenitor of the American family. He married twice. His first wife was MARIA VERKINDEREN [6674-2381], whom he married at Thielt (Roman Cath.) July 14, 1630: Petrus Bibau filius Simonis et Maria Verkinderen filia Peter, Testibus Petri bibau senior (relationship unknown, no brother of Simoen who only had a sister) et Joe Seckaers. She died at the birth of her child, the American progenitor, Jan. 31, 1647: Maria Verkinderen uxor Petri bibau enfanti nato, mortae. Pieter Bibau married as his second wife JOSYNA VAN BESBRUGGE [6671-2383], the daughter of Rijchaert van Besbrugge [6678-2382]. At the time of her marriage to Pieter Bibau she was the widow of MAURIT LOTENS [6670-2380]. In the Aardenburg Orphan Chamber record, quoted above, we have mentioned the property near Moerkercke which belonged to Pieter. The heirs of Pieter bibau made an agreement in regard to this property with Pieter's step-children Loten on January 24, 1683, before Notary Public Abraham de Rijcke at Aarden (Reg. NO. 416). 'Pieter Beheyt [6681-2385] as husband of Maria Bebout [6676-2385/3021], heir of Pieter Bibou [6653-2381/2383] her father, deceased at Thielt, makes an agreement with Laureys fs. Maurits Lootens [6670-2380] and the latter's brother-in-law Jan Andries, the husband of Mary Lotens, his (Laureys) sister, in regard to a house and land in the parish of Moerkercke, which property belonged to Pieter Bibou at the time of his second marriage to Josyne [6671-2383] fa. Rijckaert van Besbrugge (widow of Maurits Lotens). It is agreed that the two Lotens children shall pay to the Bibaus 400 Carolus guldens and the money received from the sale of the property shall belong to the Lotens children and to Josyna van Besbrugge.' And again on Dec. 10, 1683, before the same notary they make another agreement coverning property situated north of Thielt. 'Pieter Beheyt [6681-2385] and Louwreys Loten make an agreement in regard to a property of about 25 bunders situated in Thielt outside of the Schuyers capelle (Schuyffers capelle) named Hulswale, which belongs to the estate of Pieter Bybau.' Pieter Bybau died in 1679 and was bur. Thielt. Nov. 10, 1679: sepulti sunt. . . Petrus bibau. On Nov. 20, 1679, his two children make the following agreement before Notary Public A.

    Notes:

    BEEKMAN "Metje Beekman, who married Jan Bebout [Jan Pietersz Bebout] as her second husband in 1690, was born in Albany, N.Y., the daughter of Martin Hendricksz Beekman, an immigrant to New Netherland in 1629. The following sketch of Martin Beekman and his family connects the Bebouts with America only seventeen years after the settlement of Jamestown, Virginia, and nine years after the landing of the Pilgrims at Plymouth Rock. Ten years after the Patroonship of Resselaerswyck was created the ship den Harnick arrived on July 7, 1629, at New Amsterdam (1) Among the 7 passengers was a German boy of 12 named Martin Hendricks. (2) He was born in Oldenborch in 1617 and came from Hamelworden, near Freiburg on the Elbe in Hanover. (3) He went up the Hudson River to Fort Orange where he was engaged for 6 years, beginning August 14, as a farm hand at fl.100 a year. (4) For 3 years and 8 1/2 months he worked for Michael Jansz. who in 1638 had come over with his wife and two servants, as a foreman farmer and later got into trouble for selling ammunition to the Indians. (5) Then he worked 2 years and 3 1/2 months for Cornelis Tenisz. of Breuckelen, who was laboring for the Patroon. (6) Then from Nov. 1, 1645 to March 1, 1646, he was in the service of Antony de Hooges. (7) by this time Father Isaac Jogues reported that Fort Orange consisted of 25 or 30 wooden houses and about 100 inhabitants. (8) Thus at the age of 19, with his passage obligations met, he was free to make his own way in the new settlement. He had come from the same place as Adam Roelandsen, the schoolmaster, and probably knew everybody on the Patroonship. Picking up such jobs as he could, he looked about for some opening in business. In 1648 he went to court to force Cornelis Tenuisz. to pay him back wages and won the suit. (9) The court also ordered Martin, within a month, to pay his debt to Willem Fredericksz. (10) He and Evert Pels in 1650 bought a brewery and gave their note on March 14 for fl.2400; but the next year they were sued for non-payment and ordered by the court to pay one-third within a month and the balance in February, 1652. (11) About 1651 Martin regarded himself as sufficiently prosperous to marry Susanna Jans, who was born in New England in 1634. (12) The court on Feb. 1, 1652, granted him a lot next to Jacob Simonsz. so that he could 'support himself by brewing.' (13) Business experience apparently made him cautious because on Oct. 14 he begged the court to release him from bail for Cornelisz. Vogel. (14) Confident of his business integrity the Deacons of the Dutch Reformed Church loaned him out of the Poor Fund 280 guilders on Aug. 18, 1652 and 130 guilders on Nov. 15, 1660. (15) In 1653 he was engaged in some building operation because Steven Jansz. on Feb. 18 sued him for money due for materials and carpenter work. (16) and he was ordered to pay the debt within 8 weeks according to the contract. (17) The next year, June 9, Steven sued him again for fl.46 for work on his house. Martin explained that Steven had 'quit the work which he had agreed to do' and had put him to unnecessary expense about two window frames. (18) The court appointed two arbiters who decided that Martin might deduct 11 guilders from the bill. (19) Jan Barentz Poest sued Martin on April 19, 1653, for 2000 bricks to build an oven (20) and the case was settled amicably. (21) Money due Pietersz Vosburg from Martin was attached by the court. (22) Earlier references to Martin call him a blacksmith (23) but no such designation has been found in the records, where he is described as 'the brewer,' 'de bierkracker,' and 'innkeeper.' With a brewery and a tavern he was a man of some importance in the community. He was credited with 26 weeks' board of Hans Vos, the court messenger. (24) But keeping a public house was found to have its difficulties then as now. Martin and his wife complained to the court on July 7, 1654, that Seeger Corlisz. with Jacob and Loosdreght, wanting a drink, knocked at their hotel door one evening and getting no answer kicked it in and called Martin and his wife vile names. (25) The case was postponed to hear witnesses but that was the end of it. (26) It may be that 'Hendrick Bierman' who on July 2, and Dec. 27, 1655, was paid 66 florins for 33 days work stringing seawan was the same Martin the Brewer, (27) who the same year at his request had his tax for building bridges cut down from 15 to 10 florins. (28) For several years life ran along uneventfully but 1657 was a year full of troubles. On May 1 Martin was called 'before all the magistrates' to be questioned about a stabbing affair in his tavern on April 19. (29) Herman Jacobsen brought suit against 'Susanna bierkackers' who defaulted on June 14. (30) Goosen Garritsen, the sheriff, told the court on August 20 that 'Susanna Jansses, wife of Martin, the bierkaecker' confessed to selling an Indian a kettle of 'strong liquors.' For this grave offense she was fined f1.500 and costs of the suit, and 'banished from this jurisdiction for the term of six years.' (31) But Susanna while confessing her guilt pleaded that she was moved to the deed 'by extreme poverty.' Her husband 'having double hernia' was 'unable to earn his living.' She was burdened with three small children and could buy food only with beavers. Hence she bought a beaver from an Indian for a mixture of three pints of beer with brandy and wine. She begged forgiveness 'in consideration of her youth and extreme poverty' and promised 'never to do so again.' (32) Her husband, quizzed by the court, sought in vain to defend his wife from the charges because she ws so insistent on pleading guilty. (33) She was condemned to pay a fine but the amount is not stated, (34) and the proceedings were dropped. (35) Meantime Martin appears to have come into possession of a piece of land in addition to his house and lot and brewery. (36) On July 9, 1658, Hermen Vedder haled 'Martin Bierkaecker' into court (37) and on July 16 the magistrates ordered 'Martin Hendricksz.' presumably the same man as the brewer, to pay a debt of fl.95.10 in beavers by August 1 'on pain of execution.' (38) Marcelis Jansen on October 15 also brought suit against him but he defaulted. (39) 'Hendrick, the Brewer' who was ordered to pay Storm Albertsen within 6 weeks the price of 8 beavers for which he became surety, (40) seems to be the same person as Martin. But 'Hendrick Martensen' who on July 23 said that his partner and not he owed Pieter Bronck 'fl.170 for beer and wine delivered,' (41) and on June 10, 1659, was ordered to pay f1.60 in seawan to Roeloff Swartout for another allotment of beer and wine, (42) may have been another man. Before the Fort Orange court appeared 15 of the eldest sachems of the Maquas on August 13, 1658 with 3 French to accompany them to Three Rivers to exchange these prisoners and to make peace. The court sent the town crier around to offer 100 guilders to any man who would volunteer for the service. Hendrick Martensen, a soldier, offered to go. The Indians were pleased and promised to bring him back in 40 days. He carried a letter from La Montagne, chief magistrate, (43) but he got lost at Three Rivers and his Indian companions were taken prisoners. (44) For some reason not made clear in the records Martin in 1659 sold a house and lot at Fort Orange at public auction, reserving his brewer's tools, payment to be made in three installments. (45) Two years later he was still keeping a tavern in Beverwyck. (46) On Oct. 3, 1661, he sold property in Fort Orange to Arien Symonsen (47) to whom he promised to pay 98 guilders in wampum by July, 1662. (48) There is a record of a debt of fl.272 Sept. 12, 1661, which may have been the reason for the sale. (49) In 1664 he owed 27 gulden in seawan to Gerrit Henry van Rei. (50) He reported to the court on Oct. 13, 1670, that his canoe had been stolen. (51) In November of the following year the Deacons of the Dutch Reformed Church paid 40 gulden to the 'husvrow' of 'Mart. Hendricksen' for a month's board of the child of Karsten de Noorman. (52) The eldest daughter of Martin the Brewer asked for help in August and his wife in Sept., 1673. (53) In Jan. 1675, Lisbet Jansen and Susanna Martense received 'abundant alms' from the church, (54) and in March Martin was mentioned. (55) On Aug. 16, 1676, Susanna on the order of the court was paid 6 beavers for the ward of her son by Hans Jansen, (56) and on Sept. 5 she was fined for sending her children to the houses of the Indians. (57) Martin died on June 18, 1677, because on June 19 Susanna told the court that her husband had just died leaving her with 8 children -- 3 needing food and clothes. He left her nothing and 'for a considerable time' the Deacons had supported him, her and the 3 youngest children. She asked to be freed from all debts. (58) To Martin Hendrickz. Beekman and his wife Susanna Janz. were born eight children and when she was left a widow at the age of 43 three of them were still so young that they had to be fed and clothed. The other five were old enough to take care of themselves and no doubt some of them were married. The following have been identified: 1. Johannes who married (1st) Machet Schermerhorn and (2nd) Eva Van Hagen. He was the father of 5 sons and 7 daughters. He owned land in the Kayaderosseras Patent. He made his will at Albany Dec. 16, 1728 and it was probated Dec. 2, 1732. (59) The sons were: John, Jacob, Maring, John Jansen, and Henry. The daughters were: Susanna, Jannetie, Hillens, Maritie, Johana, Alida and Neeltie. 2. Hendrick who married Anetye Quackenbach and lived at Schodack Landing near Albany. (60) 3. Metje who married (1st) Cornelis Van Der Hoeven, who was buried Jan. 10, 1689, (61) and (2nd) Jan Bebout. She had 4 children by her first husband and 4 by her second. (62) 4. Neeltje, 5. Martin After the death of Martin Susanna continued to live in Albany looking after her children the best way she could. That she guarded their welfare jealously is shown by the fact that on Sept. 7, 1680, she complained to the court that Jurisen Tenuise 'committed violence against her children' in the house of her son-in-law, Cornelis van der Hoeve, by beating them and tearing their clothes. He had to pay damages and costs. (63) She did not hestitate to labor in the harvest field because after her remarriage the court record states that 'Susanna Beeckman, wife of Arent Jacobs,' asked the magistrates on March 1, 1681, to force Cornelis Teunise to pay her 80 gulden in seawan for her husband's harvest work and for her thrashing. (64) It is not known how long she lived or when she died, but at the time of her second marriage she was only 47 years old." The Bebout Family In Flanders and North America, by Alexander C.
