L. VA::-."DERMARK, 1879 .................. 312 THE COLLABORATORS VAN DE :MARK AXCESTRY i PREFACE HO FIRST conceived the idea of compiling a Van der l\Iark family genealogy is not known. The earliest knov,m W printed sketch of the family in America appeared in The History of Kingston, N. Y., by :Marius Schoonmaker, published in 1888. Perhaps the credit belongs to him. About the same time Walter B. Van Dermark and Miss Loretta ~!. Hauser, both of Wilkes-Barre, Pa., began to put in writing such information about their numerous Van der Mark relatives as ,·..-as readily available. They were unknown to each other and each ·was unaware of the action of the other. In 1896 John W. Van Demark, of New York City, in order to meet the requirements for membership in the Holland Society of New York, began a search and made a brief genealogical record for that purpose. Shortly thereafter Clarence E. Hauser, of New York City, brother of Loretta. became interested and met John \V. Van Demark through the courtesy of Mr. Dingman Versteeg, then official historian and archivist of the Holland Society. Their friendship and cooperation continued until Mr. Van Demark joined "the innumerable caravan" in 192i. In 1924 the result of the efforts of the four interested per­ sons above named were united, making a voluminous :-ecorc!. In 1925 ~!rs. Charles C. Bovey, of lfinneapolis, Minn., daugh­ ter of Mrs. Josephine Van de Mark Koon, who, unknown to the other interested parties, had been maldng researches coilceming the family, learned of their efforts and records and generously offered to finance the printing of a Van der :Mark family book. Thus to the untiring efforts of these five persons, only two of whom sun-ive, the credit for gathering the information in this book is due. It is no exaggeration to state that the quest for information relating to the family from every possible source has continued, as opporttmity and leisure permitted, for about fifty years. Many letters of inquiry were sent to members of the family, but few answers were received. Grateful acknowledgment is hereby made s VAN DE l\IARK A:scESTRY to those who rendered assistance. Among them are Hon. Martin Van Buren Van De Mark, of Concordia, Kan., who has always been willing to help and who had the copy for Part I typewritten ; Percy F. Van De Mark, of Schenectady, N. Y., who has done much research work and had correspondence with some members of the family in Holland; James Isaac Van der l'.fark and family of High Falls, N. Y., and AJe.-,.ander S. Van der Mark, of Goshen, N. Y. The European records in Part I speak for themselves. They are, ·with the exception of the first ten pages, largely the work of John \V. Van Demark (as he was fond of spelling his name) and were printed in 1925 under his editorial supervision when he was in his 87th year. As his sight was very poor owing to operations on both eyes for cataract, quite naturally under the circumstances, his work was far from perfect. That he was fully conscious of this appears from the following statement made by him: "In the accompanying o-"tracts from many sources there is doubtless justi­ fication for criticism, and of the many quotations possibly some inadvertently have not been properly credited, but being without previous e>..-perience as author or editor, and without pretension to either. every effort has been made to do even justice to all author­ ities." The Van der 1fark family may be said to have become clearly established when, in the ninth century, Theodoric, Count of Altena, Mark and Berg. called his offspring Counts of l'.lark and Counts of Berg. The printing of Part II and completion of the book has been delayed for various reasons, chief among which was the desire to make the numbered line as complete and perfect as possible and thus preserve for posterity all the information available. None of the compilers had previous experience in such work and no apology is offered fer the many imperfections, but critics are reminded th.Lt "Whoever thinks a faultless piece to see Thinks what ne'er ,.,,-as, nor is, nor e'er shall be." CLARENCE E. HAUSER 202 Vandermark St., Nuangola, Pa. January, 1942. VAN DE :MARK ANCESTRY 9 FOREWORD ANY YEARS AGO in New York, my mother and I had the pleasure of meeting John W. Van Demark who had M become known to us through some of his relatives in Minneapolis where we lived. Interesting letters came from him about Thomas Van der Mark, our first ancestor in this country from Holland. After my mother's death in 1922, I was at Lake Mohonk and found in the history of ulster County an article about Thomas Van der Mark and his family. I was delighted to find that I was so near their first home at :Marbletown. On our \\-ay to Kingston the ne.'\.1: day we made a quick, but unsuccessful, search of the Marbletown cemetery. Years later Percy F. Van De Mark sent me pictures of the gravestones of Thomas and his wife, which he had found in that same cemetery and which gave their long desired dates. John

STOLJEĆA I NJEGOV IZVORNI IZVJEŠTAJ O VEZALOVOJ SMRTI 1564. GODINE Maurits Biesbrouck1, Theodoor Goddeeris2 and Omer Steeno3 Summary Reiner Solenander (1524-1601) was a physician born in the Duchy of Cleves, who got his education at the University of Leuven and at various universities in Italy and in France. Back at home he became the court physician of William V and later of his son John William. In this article his life and works are discussed. A report on the death of Andreas Vesalius (1514-1564), noted down by Solenander in May 1566, one year and seven months after the death of Vesalius, is discussed in detail. Due to the importance of that document a copy of its first publication is given, together with a transcription and a translation as well. It indicates that Vesalius did not die in a shipwreck.

    Volume 2. From Absolutism to Napoleon, 1648-1815 Political Testament of Frederick William ("the Great Elector") (May 19, 1667) This extraordinary document displays Frederick William’s psychology and statecraft with unvarnished frankness. His deep religiosity is evident, but the ways in which his Calvinist faith differed from Lutheranism are not so easy to detect. Though he sometimes employs a patrimonial idiom in speaking of his rule (e.g., “the house of Brandenburg”), more often the accent falls on the “absolutist” military-bureaucratic state that he so mightily labored to erect. He writes with Machiavellian realism about domestic and international rivals for power within and over Brandenburg-Prussia, about his territorial ambitions, and the military and economic resources at his and his successor’s disposal. The fatherly love that I, as a father, bear for my son and future successor has compelled me to leave for him some useful lessons born of long experience, and to put these briefly into writing. [I do this] in consideration that it will be beneficial and necessary for him to know how he should lead his entire government, and how he should act, first and foremost regarding God, also regarding his peers, as well as his subjects, granted and entrusted to him by God, in religious and secular matters; [he should know] what kind of councilors he needs, how he should let councils vote, and also when and how he should make decisions; with whom he is in alliance, and with whom he still has to make such [alliances], and how he can improve the finances [Cammerstadt]; what is concerned in the maintenance of the fortresses, the naming of the fortresses that are there now, and what kinds of places could be established as convenient for the security and communication of the territories, what kind of garrisons are necessary therein during peacetime and wartime, as well as what is involved in the maintenance of the magazines and the expansion thereof.

  • The Beginnings of Indwstrialization
    The Beginningsof Indwstrialization SHEILAGH OGILVIE Germanv and industrialization It may seem curious to speak of industrialization as beginning around 1500. Industrialization is often regarded as synonymous with the rise of mechanized manufacturing in centralized facrories, and this did nor occur even in England until 1760-80, and in Germany not until 1830-50. But machines and factories were only late landmarks - albeit important ones - in a much longer process of industrial growth in Europe, dating back to at least 1500. This long-term industrializationwas basedalmost wholly on decentralized work in producers' own houses, using domestic labour and a simple, slowly changing technology. Yet it was responsible for a gradual expansion in the proportion of the labour-force working in industry and the share of the total output of the economy representedby manufactures. It was also responsiblefor the emergence,between about 1500 and about 'indus- 1800, of what German historianshave called Gewerbelandschaften, trial regions', in which an above-averageproportion of people worked in industry and a substantial share of what they produced was exported beyond the region.l Important as factory industrialization was, many of its seeds were sown long before, during the slow and dispersed industri- alization of many regions of early modern Europe. This early modern industrial growth was part of a wider process of regional specializatioa, which began slowly in the late medieval period, but accelerated decisively during the sixteenth century. During this process many more European regions than ever before began to specializein partic- ular forms of agriculture, as well as particular branchesof industry, produc- ing surpluses for export and importing what they did not produce for themselves.Thus regional self-sufficiency declined, and inter-regional trade grew.

And this makes it of the first importance that the facts from which that usage and practice are to be deduced should be correctly appre- ciated, and in particular that the great treaties which have regulated the status and territorial rights of nations should be studied from the point of view of history and international law. It is the object of this book to present materials for that study in an accessible form. The scope of the book is limited, and wisely limited, to treaties between the nations of Europe, and to treaties between those nations from 1815 onwards. To include all treaties affecting all nations would require volumes nor is it for the many ; necessary, purpose of obtaining a sufficient insight into the history and usage of European States on such matters as those to which these treaties relate, to go further back than the settlement which resulted from the Napoleonic wars.

  • The Colonial Clergy of the Middle Colonies New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania 1628-1776
    The Colonial Clergy of the Middle Colonies New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania 1628-1776 BY FREDERICK LEWIS WEIS EDITOR'S NOTE NE of the most useful tools in the chest of the bibliog- O rapher, historian, and librarian is the series of little volumes by Dr. Weis on the colonial clergy. The gap in this series, the volume on the clergy of the Middle Colonies, was proving such a great hindrance to our revision of Evans' American Bibliography, that we have decided to print this volume for our own use, and to publish it in order to share it with others. The first volume of this series. The Colonial Clergy and the Colonial Churches of New England (Lancaster, 1936), is out of print. The Colonial Clergy of Maryland, Delaware, and Georgia (Lancaster, 1950), and The Colonial Clergy of Virginia, North Carolina, and South Carolina (Boston, 1955) may be obtained of the author (at Dublin, New Hampshire) for $3 a volume. The institutional data which is provided at the end of the New England volume is for the other colonies issued in a separate volume. The Colonial Churches and the Colonial Clergy in the Middle and Southern Colonies (Lancaster, 1938), which is still available from the author.

In this work I present a method for locating linked data to preserve which functions even when the URI the user wishes to preserve does not resolve (i.e. is broken/not RDF) and an application for monitoring and preserving the data. This work is based upon the principle of adapting ideas from hypermedia link integrity in order to apply them to the Semantic Web.

  • Van MARMEREN FAMILY TREE
    van MARMEREN FAMILY TREE Saturday, 26 July 2003 The van Mameren family is both very old and very extensive. The oldest van Mameren mentioned is Conrad von Mamer in 1166. The family name is written as von Mamer, de Mamer, van Mamere and van Mameren. In the 14th century, the family is found in Brabant, always related to functions of the Dukedom of Kleef/Cleves. The family of van Mameren is very, very old, and originates in Luxembourg; and although the line is not straight from father to son, it goes back nearly a thousand years. There are two armorial crests and straight lineage goes back to approximately 1640. The oldest family member in a direct line to Jenneke Neeltje Maria van Mameren is Aaldert Marcelis van Mameren who died before 1738. It can safely be stated that everybody born in the Betuwe, in places like Zoelen, Wadenoyen, Kapelle-Avezaath and others, are related. The Duchy of Cleves is a former German state which lay on both sides of the lower Rhine bordering on the Netherlands. A county from late Carolingian times, it acquired (late 14th cent.) the county of Mark, in Westphalia, and in 1417 was made a duchy. In 1521, Duke John III of Cleves inherited through marriage the duchies of Jülich and Berg and the county of Ravensberg. His daughter, Anne of Cleves, was married in 1540 to Henry VIII of England. In 1609 the male line became extinct, and a complicated dynastic quarrel for the succession followed. Brandenburg acquired (1614) Cleves, Mark, and Ravensberg; the Palatinate-Neuburg line of the Bavarian house of Wittelsbach took Jülich and Berg.
