They only go through the lineage of two of his children, but I'm descended through his son Pieter, who married Hester Webbers Oct 10, 1666.

Then Pieter's son, Abraham (born July 28, 1672), who married Lucretia Bogardus Oct 8, 1704. (in New York)
Their daughter, Hester (born July 17, 1718) married Arien Van Shaick Nov9, 1741. (in New York)
Their daughter, Rachel Van Shaick (born March 9, 1752) married Alexander Buchanan on Feb 24, 1772. (in Kentucky)
Their son, Simeon Buchanan (born Jun 30, 1789) married Amelia Spaulding on Aug 30, 1808. (in Kentucky)
Their son, William Spaulding Buchanan (born Feb 09, 1811) married Elenor Tabor on Dec 30, 1835. (in Kentucky)
Their daughter, Martha Jane Elenor Buchanan (born May 16, 1848) married James Knox Polk Driskill on Nov 24, 1865. (in Missouri)
Their daughter, Arminda Driskill (born Apr 01, 1878) married William Delbert Carbaugh on Sep 23, 1898. (in Missouri)
Their son, Herbert Delbert Carbaugh (born Jul 17, 1899) married Alice Nihart in ~April, 1922. (in Missouri)
Their son, Delbert Herbert Carbaugh (born Jun 17, 1923) was my grandfather.

I LOVE genealogy. Most of the original church records from the Albany area are online somewhere, if you need baptism records, etc.
