• Notes

  The genealogy of this family has for years followed the fabricated line of some 19th Century Genealogist. 2. The true line was proved by Hugh Law in his book: SLC FHLC 940 D2hl, Chapter 7 is entitled: Ancestors traced to France: Joris Jansen de Rapalje & Catherine Trico. Parish records from her home town don't begin for many years after the birth of Catherine Trico, but there are many Trico families living in the area. At her marriage in Amsterdam, Holland, she gives the place of her birth. She was 18 at the time of her marriage. Her sister Mary Flamengh accompanied her. In a deposition in 17 Oct 1688 Catalynie states she was 83 years of age, born in Paris France, She came to this country in the Ship Unity in 1623, commanded by Adrian Jorise arrived in Albany New York and after 2 years moved to New Amsterdam (New York City) !Birth place: She states in 1680 as born in Paris France. On her marriage intents her place of birth Prais France is lined out and Pris in Walslant is written in. Further research verifies that Pris in Walslant is correct. !FATHER: these two sources list her father as Joris Trico: 1. Reg. of Early Settlers of Kings Co., Long Island, N.Y. by. Bergen, Teunis G.; SPL R929.1747 B453R pg 326; 2. Gen. & Family History of Southern New York by Cutter, SPL. R929.1747 C981G pg 830 George E.

Koening, "Further Information About Catalina Trico", New Netherland Connections Vol.1, page 89 (1996): pages 91-92. About Catalyntje (Catherine) "From the Journal of Dankers & Sluter, Labadists [a 17th century religious sect] who visited this country in 1678: On May 30, 1679, they visited Catalynie. "M. deLaGrange and his wife invited me to accompany them in their boat to the Walebocht, a place situated on Long Island, an hour's distance below the city and opposite Corlears Heock. The aunt of de LaGrange (Catalynie Trico) is an old Walloon. She is wordly-minded, living with her whole heart, as well as body, among her progeny, which now numbers 145 and will soon reach 150. Nevertheless, she lived alone by herself, a little apart from the others, having her little garden and other conveniences with which she helped herself."
