| 10169 | Note on Find a Grave: The records at Holy Trinity (Old Swedes) church in Wilmington, Delaware, show that on 5 February 1760 Pastor Eric Unander united in marriage Jacob Stilley Junr. and Anne French (p.873). He was called Jacob Stilley Junior not because he was the son of Jacob Stilley Senior but rather because his grandfather by the same name was still alive and active in the church. In later records, his wife is called "Nancy" so either the marriage record is in error or else that was her accepted nickname. Their first child, Rachel, was born 29 October 1760 and baptized 15 December 1760 at Old Trinity in the presence of Jonathan Stilley (his father) and Mary Stilley (probably Jacob's sister). Her baptism is the third entry on page 835 of the Holy Trinity (Old Swedes) Church book. Two pages later, on page 837, is recorded the baptism of their second child, Uriel, who was baptized on the same day as Jacob's youngest brother, Ephron: "Ephron, born 14 November 1761, baptized 2 February; the parents, Jonathan and Magdalena Stilley.

He is buried in the Jefferson Methodist Episcopal Cemetery, Gill Hall road, Jefferson Township, Allegheny County, PA. ****** NOTE: All the data I can find shows his death as March 17, 1777 at Fort McIntosh, however apparently Fort McIntosh was not built until 1778. Does this mean he helped build the fort in 1777 and it was not ready for occupancy until 1778? Wikipedia: Fort McIntosh was an early American log frontier fort situated near the confluence of the Ohio River and the Beaver River in what is now Beaver, Pennsylvania. The fortress was constructed in 1778 under the direction of Lt. Col. Cambray-Digny and named in honor of General Lachlan McIntosh. The fortress was the site of the signing of the Treaty of Fort McIntosh on January 21, 1785. It was occupied until it was abandoned in 1791. After the Revolution, the fort was the home of the First American Regiment, the oldest active unit in the United States Army. http://www.beaverheritage.org/ftmcintosh.htm: General Lachlan McIntosh built Fort McIntosh during the American Revolution in 1778 on a commanding plateau above the Ohio River at what would become the town of Beaver, Pennsylvania. He was assigned by General George Washington as Commander of the Western Department of the Continental Army. Constructed in 1778, it was the first fort built by the Continental Army north of the Ohio River, as a direct challenge to the British stronghold at Detroit. It was the headquarters of the largest army to serve west of the Alleghenies. Its purpose was to protect the western frontier from possible attacks by the British and from raids by their Native American allies. The fort, large for a frontier setting, at one time had a garrison of about 1,500 men. | Stille, Jacob (I5761)

| 10170 | Note on Find a Grave: The records at Holy Trinity (Old Swedes) church in Wilmington, Delaware, show that on 5 February 1760 Pastor Eric Unander united in marriage Jacob Stilley Junr. and Anne French (p.873). He was called Jacob Stilley Junior not because he was the son of Jacob Stilley Senior but rather because his grandfather by the same name was still alive and active in the church. In later records, his wife is called "Nancy" so either the marriage record is in error or else that was her accepted nickname. Their first child, Rachel, was born 29 October 1760 and baptized 15 December 1760 at Old Trinity in the presence of Jonathan Stilley (his father) and Mary Stilley (probably Jacob's sister). Her baptism is the third entry on page 835 of the Holy Trinity (Old Swedes) Church book. Two pages later, on page 837, is recorded the baptism of their second child, Uriel, who was baptized on the same day as Jacob's youngest brother, Ephron: "Ephron, born 14 November 1761, baptized 2 February; the parents, Jonathan and Magdalena Stilley. "Uriel, born 25 December 1761, baptized 2 February; the parents, Jacob and Nancy Stilley. *************** Subject: FRENCH s-New Sweden,De-1700s Posted by: Sue Bowman Message: Anne FRENCH m Jacob STILLEY 1760 Holy Trinity [Old Swedes]Church.

One theory is that they are Robert & Hannah (Cattell) French. NONE of the trees in Ancestry.com or Rootsweb.com have a valid source for her parents. Those using the connection claim the will of Robert French as proof. I can find NO valid documentation that Robert & Hannah (Cattell) French had Anne French, married to Jacob Stilley, as a daughter!!! Robert's will lists a daughter Anne, but no mention of her marriage to a Stilley. Robert lived in New Jersey his entire life and Anne, married to Jacob Stilley, was born and married in Wilmington, Delaware. The distance is now about 130 miles and in the 1760's would have been a long trip. There is no data to show that either family had reason to travel to the area of the other family. | French, Anne "Nancy" (I5762)

However, Maria's first husband was Cornelis Volckertsen Viele. reference to her illegitimate birth I, the undersigned Pieter Wolphersen, hereby acknowledge for myself, my heirs and successors that this day, date underwritten, I have adopted,as I do hereby adopt, Aeltjem Pieters van Couwenhoven, my own daughter, whom I have begotten and procreated by Maria de Truy, promising therefore that from this date I shall do by the above-named, my daughter, as a god fearing father is bound and ought to do by his own legitimate daughter; therefore, I hereby discharge and release Cornelis Volckersen, husband and guardian of the aforesaid Maria de Truy, from all charges and responsibilities incidental to the bringing up of a child till she becomes of age; I, Pieter Wolphersen, promising to look after the child, to let her learn to read and to bring her up according to my means. Furthermore, if I do not beget any children by my present wife, the above named child shall be my rightful heiress and inheritrix, as if she were duly begotten in lawful wedlock, and if it happens that children be begotten by me and my wife, the above named Aeltjen Pieters shall receive, like the legitimate children on my side, a just child's portion of all such goods, means and effects as it shall please the Lord God Almighty to bestow on me. Requesting that this may have effect before all courts, I have signed this without fraud in the presence of the subscribing witnesses hereto invited. Done, the 7th day of January 1642. This is x the mark of Pieter Wolphersen Jacob Couwenhoven Philippe du Trieux Acknowledged before me, Cornelis van Tienhoven, Secretary on January 7, 1642. Lt. Pieter Wolphertse Van Kouwenhoven commissioned a Lt. during the Esopus War on June 30, 1663. Lt. Pieter Wolphertse Van Kouwenhoven in 1688 at Brewer, Elizabethtown, Essex County, New Jersey. pos Annetje Peterson was the daughter of Lt. Pieter Wolphertse Van Kouwenhoven. I came across this item in the Fall 1997 Swedish Colonial News. It has a Couwenhoven reference which may be of interest to you. Anders Stille's Wife by Dr. Peter S. Craig Deeds by Anders Stille, eldest son of Olof Stille, identify his wife as Annetje, the Dutch form of Anna. In testimony before the New Castle court, Anders stated that he had been familiar with the houses and streets of the town since 1658. In the 1671 English census of the Delaware, Anders was shown as residing in New Castle and married to the owner of his house, named Anna Peterson by the English census taker. Who was Anna or Annetje "Peterson"? This has long stumped me. However, in working up a pending article on this 1671 census for future publication, I was struck by the fact that Wharton's cenuss was a door-to-door survey of each resident. Comparing his census with records of early patents and deeds disclosed, beyond question, that the house occupied by Anders Stille and his wife was owned by a Dutch brewer by the name of Pieter Wolfertsen van Couwenhoven, who was in prison at Manhattan in 1671 because he had defaulted on a mortgage of property in Elizabethtown, NJ, to Governor Philip Carteret of New Jersey. Pieter was not himself named in the census, perhaps to hide his identity from creditors. But, whatever the reason, the father's financial difficulties now tell us that his daughter, known as Annetje Pieters van Couwenhoven to the Dutch, was the wife of Anders Stille, the Swede. The house in New Castle was sold in 1672 and the Stille family moved to Christiana Bridge to live next door to Anders Stille's niece Elisabeth Petersdotter (Yocum), wife of the English soldier, John Ogle. Dr. Peter S. Craig 3406 Macomb Street NW Washington DC 20016. Pos Annetje Peterson was also known as Anna Pieterson. She was also known as Annetje Pieters. Annetje married Anders Olofsson Stille, son of Olof Persson Stille, in May. 1671. | Pieters, Annetje "Anna" (I5287)
