Rapalje Family Crest
Rapalje children
Painted by John Durand, 1768 (New York Historical Society)
About Me
- Mary Lucier
- New York and Sullivan County, NY, United States
- I am descended from Joris Jansen de Rapalje and Catalinje Trico through their first child, Sarah (b. 1625)--the first European child born in New Netherland.
I just researched and traced my family to Joris Jansen and Catalinje Trico. Who are the three you may know (Tom Brokaw?!) and who is the gentleman in the portrait?
