Notes:

In 17 1 1 Harmen Knickerbocker deeded land in the south part of Amenia, N, Y., to Cornelius Knickerbocker, who in 1743 was living in Salisbury, Conn., on a farm which in 1748 he exchanged with Capt. John Sprague for land on Gay street north of Sharon near a pond called Knickerbocker's Pond, now Beardslee Pond (Isaac Huntting's Little Nine Partners, p. 366). A tax assessment in Dutchess County in 1723 shows that Cornelius Knickerbacker was taxed eleven pounds and eleven pence (Smith's History of Rhinebeck, N. V., p. 46). On 14 May, 1743, Cornelius Knickerbocker was one of the interpreters between the Indians Cabrickset and Tasawight, who were called to locate landmarks in the outline survey of Little Nine Partners made by Charles Clinton. In November Clinton and his men prepared to correct his Livingston "random line." They left the south bend of the Roelof Jansen for Nackawawick, the east end of the Livingston line, and spent the night at Cornelius Knickerbocker's who lived in that neighborhood. Again Knickerbocker was of service by helping show the Indian bounds of Nackawawick (Huntting's Litt/e Nine Partners, p. 28).

Cornelis married Johanna Schut in 1720 in Kingston, Ulster, New York, USA. Johanna (daughter of Meindert Willemse Schut and Sara Jansen Pierson) was born on 7 Mar 1697 in Kingston, Ulster, New York, USA; and died in Sharon, Litchfield, Connecticut, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
