My connection is Cornelia Van Wert daughter of Joachiam Van Wert, Elder of the Sleepy Hollow Church. She wed Hercules Van Lent who owed Ryck's Patent during his lifetime. She is infrequently listed among Joachiam's children. I am beginning to suspect she is the Catherine who is noted because Cornelia has never been a family name whereas Catherine is. Also she and Hercules had a daughter they named Christina named for Cornelia's mother Stymie wife of Joachiam .. so I think that is some evidence she does belong in this line ..
