"In the new world, people married not only early, but often. the Dutch church records are full of second and third marriages. It was required by the laws of New Netherland that any widow, or widower, about to contract a second marriage and having already children, should apply for the appointment of guardians of the children, in order that their share of the estate under the Dutch rules might first be set aside for them. On March 16, 1660, we find on the records that 'Stincha (Christina) Loras widow' (of Louris Jansen Opdyck deceased) had such guardians appointed for her children, Peter, Otto, and Johannes, The estate was appraised at 2,100 guilders (a considerable sum in those days), of which she received one half upon her declaration to the English of Gravesend that this was the law of Holland: a pretty strong proof that she was a woman of force of character and of consideration. Six days earlier, Lourens Petersen, from Tonsbergen, in Norway, a widower, also states that his wife Annetie is deceased, that he is now engaged to marry 'Styntie Laurens' of Gravesend, and desires trustees appointed for a division of a proper share of their mother's estate to his two daughters; which is accordingly done, as recorded in the minutes of the Council at Fort Amsterdam. Lourens Petersen had been married at New Amsterdam in 1641, and had there baptized his daughter Sytie in 1642 and his daughter Engeltie in 1646:"

"Laurens Pietersen or Laurens Pietersen Noorman, from Tonsberg, in Norway, was in New Amsterdam as early as 1639. On June 16, of that year, he was declared sole heir to the real and personal property of a Roellof Roellofsen, the witnesses being Pieter Jansen, likely the Norwegian by that name, and Hans Stein. In the Calendar of Wills, where this declaration is contained, Laurens is called ' Laurens Pietersen van Tonsback'. (Tonsberg). In the Church Records of New Amsterdam, containing the entry of his marriage with Anetie Pieters from "Brutsteen," Germany - August 18, 1641 -, it is stated that he is from Tonsberg.
His name appears quite often in the church records as sponsor -- August 8, 1641, for Rachel, daughter of Dirk Hogersen, the Norwegian; December 8, in the same year, for Rommetje, the child of Hans Hansen van Nordstrand in Holstein; May 21, 1646, for Nicholas, a son of Barent Janszen; April 14, 1647, for Aert, a child of Caesar Albertsz; March 20, 1650, for Nicholas, a son of Barent Jansen; january 28, 1663, for Joost, the son of Barent Joosten and his own daughter Sytie."
