[vanaken.FTW] The following is an excerpt from the ten volume book "OLDE ULSTER" published in Kingston NY between 1900 and 1910 and appears in volume four, five and six, Some portions are also taken from the Ten Broeck and Van Berschoten Genealogy. Among the early families of Ulster County, (or Esopus as it was generally called in early days) that of Van Aaken is conspicuous, especially from the long line of descendants, now widely scattered and many of whom attained distinction. In Holland the family name is traced back 1500 Years to the 4th century to John Van Aken, the founder of the ancient city of Aachen or Aken, now generally known as Aix La Chappele located in Germany between the Rhine and Meuse rivers on the border of Holland. There is still a section called Aken or Acken one mile south-east of Opmeer a village eight miles Northwest of Hoom in the province of North Holland., whence came some of the most prominent and enterprising of our early immigrants. In the same province are North and South Akendam, two villages, about six miles distant from Haarlem. In this country the name is first on record at Fort Orange (now Albany) in 1652 in which year Jan Koster Van Aaken., as he wrote his names appears as a trader and purchaser of real estate on Broadway, State and James streets. He was made a magis trate in 1668. Although he could and did write his name., he., like many others at the, time, often made his mark - two triangles crossing each other. If he had descendants they are not known. Among the early immigrants to America was a Pieter Van Ecke a planter from Leyden. He- came over April 25.. 1659 In de Bever of Capt, Jan Reyerz Van der beets. No further record. is found of this man although some think he was the father of Marinus Van Aken who in 1689, was on the roll of persons who took the oath of Allegiance to the English government in Kingston that year. At what date Marinus settled in the Esopus country in not known. The first child born to him and his wife Pietrenelle de Pus, as per Kingston records was Peter in 1685, We find Cornelis Van Aken married to Jan Sjammers who we think was their daughter although we have no record of her birth Marinus VAN AKEN was born about 1660 in Aken, HLD. He emigrated after 1683 from America. He resided at Esopus, Ulster Co, NY in 1685. He was buried in Oct 1724 in Rochester, Accord, NY. He died before 17 Oct 1724 in Rochester, Ulster Co, NY. He resided at Rochester, (Accord), Ulster Co, NY. He was married to Prijntje RENTS. Prijntje RENTS died before 1683. He was married to Pieternella DEPRE (daughter of Jan DEPRE and Margaret CROMMARTIE) on 11 Apr 1683 in Cadzand, Zeeland, HLD. Pieternella DEPRE was born about 1664 in HLD. [KamaiFamily.FTW] Came to America in 1685 where they bought a farm in the Minisink Valley, New York (Florence has copy of original deed). Letter to V.V.VanAken dated Jan. 20, 1959 from Florence Van Aken .. A.M. Ronk, "ULSTER COUNTY PIONEERS" The Van Akens and Allied Families; 7/22/1900. "Among the early families of Ulster county, or "esopus" as it was more generally called in early days, that of Van Aken is conspicuous, especially from the long line of its descendants now widely scattered. In Holland the family name is traced back fifteen hundred years to the forth century when John Van Aken, the founder of the ancient of "aken", now called Ais-la-Chappele, located in Germany between the Rhine and Meuse rivers, on the border of Holland. In this country the name is first of record at Fort Orange (now Albany) in 1652, in which year Jan Koster Van Aaken, as his name was written for him, appears as a trader and purchaser of real estate on Broadway, State and James streets, and was made a magistrate in 1668, although he could not write his name except by his 'mark' two triangles crossing each other. His descendants are not known, though possibly Levi, Henry and John, whose names appear on the military regiments, may have been, but certainly he was not the forbear of Peter Van Aken who came from Holland settled in the Esopus county as early as 1656. Peter and Jan Koster may have been brothers, but even of that there is no evidence. The family tradition is that Peter settled two miles south of Rondout, where he built the stone house which was a mark for the guns of Vaughn's expedition up the Hudson in October 1777. Some cannon balls are preserved in the family as souvenirs t his event. In French the name is Aix: in German, Aachen. "It is evidently derived from the springs, for which Aix-la-Chapelle has always been famous." the springs were early marked by a chapel (French chapelle) in which Pepin celebrated Christmas in 765. Van Aachen or Aken simply describes a person 'as of or from' Aachen, of whom there were many of no relationship whatever, the place of primary residence becoming there proper name. The name appears in varying local orthographies, and an early record form in Ulster County being that of Marinos Van Aken in 1689., on the roll of persons who took the oath of allegiance to the English government at Kingston, in the year. Aiken represents Dutch long sound of a, as does also Auken." .. "CHURCH LIFE", May 1897: "Cornelius Van aken (son of emigrant Marinus Van Aken and Pieternelle de Pre) was born at Kingston and baptized May 25, 1690, and married Sara Westbroek, his wife (daughter of Johannes Westbrook and Magdalena Dekker), the ancestors of all the Delaware Valley Westbrooks), baptized at Kingston, June 10, 1694, and married April 30, 1714. Removed from Ulster County to Bucks (now Pike County), PA, at Theesacht, now Rosetown, in Westfall Township." .. CHURCH LIFE: OLD DEERPARK DAYS; Dec 1899: "..Peter Van Aken's father was the emigrant, Marinus van Aken, of the ancient city of Aken, more generally known as Aix-la-Chappelle, where the German Emperor Charlemagne was buried. He came to America, and to Ulster county prior to 1685. His widow, Pierternella de Prez married Moses Du Puy, widow of Maritje Wynkoop. Moses du Puy was a son of Nocolas Du Puy and Wyntje Roosa, and was baptized Feb 1, 1713. He married Anna Prys. .. First Families of America Vol 7 pg 795.

First Families of America Vol 7 pg 795. NY Gen and Bio Record V 103 #2 p87. Personal Profile: --------------- Marinus VanAken was the first of my line to settle in America. He was born about 1660 in Holland. His first wife Prijntje Rents widowed him. He married Pieternelle Des Prez April 11, 1683 in Cadzand, Holland. They later emigrated to America. Marinus Van Aken is said to have emigrated from the ancient city of Aken, now more generally called Aiz La-Chappelle or Aachen, from whence the name of the family of Van Akens and Van Aukens in America is taken. The name Achen is evidently derived from the springs for which the place has always been famous, and was the burial place of Charlemagne, the great German Emperor. Van Aachen or Aken simply describes a person 'as of or from' Aachen, of whom there were many of no relationship whatever, the place of primary residence becoming there proper name. Aiken represents Dutch long sound of a, as does also Auken. In Holland the family name is traced back fifteen hundred years to the forth century when John Van Aken founded the ancient of "aken", located in Germany between the Rhine and Meuse rivers on the border of Holland. Marinus and Pieternelle emigrated to America and resided in Ulster County, around 1683, in the town of Esopus. They later resided in Rochester (Accord, NY). Their farm near Kingston is said to be still in the possession of their descendants. They had eight children named: Pieter (1685), Sara (1688), Cornelis (1690), Catrina (1692), Rachel (1695), Neeltje (1697), Abraham (1689) and Isaak (1702). Marinus died sometime prior to 1724. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------ b: ca 1660; d: bef 1724. ref: 1) VanAaken and Allied Families Compiled by Miss Annie R.
