There are eight “cousins” who would very much like to find their connection to the line of Marinus if it exists or find the ancestors of Peter L. The answer probably could be in Berne, Albany County, NY. There should be a baptism for Peter, and a marriage license. Perhaps Peter L. had purchased and sold land. He could be listed in his father’s will. Any additional information or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
