Research Notes

1. The reference that Mary's last name at birth may be a conflation with her daughter in law, "Mary Morgan," who married Jean/John Crocheron II, b: 1658 in Flanders. The marriage was celebrated in New York on 28 April 1713/4. She was his 2nd wife. See: [3]

2. Without suggesting that these data are correct, for what ever it's worth, on the "Find-a-Grave" page, Marie's birth date is listed there as 1630 on the grave or 1610 in the image caption. Moreover, the place of birth is listed as New York.[4]

S.B., would you kindly provide links (URLs) for the document(s) you found on Ancestry in support of your statement about Mary's maiden name?

Unfortunately, your descriptions only tell us that you searched for something on Ancestry and found something somewhere in the massive database of Dutch Reformed Church records.

Crocheron-9 and Unknown-232903 appear to represent the same person because: I agree with that she could not have been born on Staten Island and think that Belgium would be an accurate place for her birth. Of all the info I have seen, the vast majority support her being born around 1610, so I think these are safe to merge with the Belgium location as the correct one for her birth.
Crocheron-9 and Unknown-232903 are not ready to be merged because: Jason, A merge has been proposed between your Mary and Mary Crocheron [1]. I have noticed that I have her born in Staten Island NY in 1610 and you have her born in Flanders, Belgium in about 1610. This place shows her born in Belgium but in 1626 [2], while this one shows her born abt 1610 but gives no birth place [3], and this one shows what I have but not much else [4]. Before we merge, I think we should make sure the birth dates and places are correct.
