LAURENS ANDRIESSEN came from Holstein, Denmark in 1655. His name first appears in records of New Amsterdam, 6-19-1656 in a deed for a lot of land on Broad Street. He was then unmarried and a turner by trade, afterwards, however, becoming a draper. He took the oath of allegiance 11-20-1665 and married 9-12-1658 JANNETJE JANS (widow of CHRISTIAN BARENTSEN VAN HORN).
In july1658 LAURENS was sent by the Orphans Master at New Amsterdam to South River (Delaware) to assist the widow of CHRISTIAN BARENTSEN VAN HORN, A carpenter, who died as a result of malady that took many lives in that area. Four and a half months later LAURENS and JANNETJE married on 12-12-1658 according to the marrige registry of the Dutch Reformed Church in New Amsterdam. Some say the sme date but list Old Dutch Church, Staten Island, NY. I presume they are one and the same.

Biographical sketch - "History of Franklin and Pickaway Counties, Ohio", pages 306=309 "PETER VAN BUSKIRK who married RUTH RHODES in Aleghey County, M, before 1795, was a Maryland farmer in early days. In the year 1799 he removed to Ohio, coming over the mountains with pack horses.
They stopped a year, in Chillicothe (Ross County). Ohio,then but a few stragging log cabins occupied the site of that, now populous city and the red man held almost undisputed possession of the soil.
After one year in Ross County, Mr. VAN BUSKIRK, penetrated into the wilderness to what is now Pickaway co. Ohio, locating on the bank of Deer Creek, near Williamsport in this county where he located on a tract of 900 acres of land that he bought of the goverment.
