   {{UNDOCUMENTED ANCESTRY}}
-Hans Teunise Covert was born in Heemstedt, Holland in 1657/58. His name is also seen as "Jan", the Dutch form of the German "Hans" (short for Johan/Johannes). From the name spelling "Hans", and from his wife Jannetje Brokaw having been born in Mannheim, Germany, we assume Hans Tuenise Covert, or possibly his parental family,  migrated to Germany, probably Mannheim.  <br>  Hans Teunise Covert and wife Jannetje Brokaw migrated to America, sometime before the birth of daughter Catherine in 1688.  (The old Dutch colony at New Amsterdam had become New York, under British rule, in 1664.) His known children were born in America; the first child Catherine born 1688 in Brooklyn; the next five children born 1690-1699 in Dutch Kills, Long Island NY; and finally two daughters born 1706-1709 in Somerset, New Jersey. <br>
+Hans Teunise Covert was born in Brooklyn, New Amsterdam in 1657/58. His name is also seen as "Jan", the Dutch form of the German "Hans" (short for Johan/Johannes). Throughout the Covert records of New York and New Jersey for Hans Teunise Covert,"Johannes",  "Hans" and "Jan" appear to be used interchangeably, sometimes in the same document.  (With similar, reversed names, the father, Teunis Janszentje Covert, is commonly recorded as "Teunis", while son Hans Teunise Covert is commonly recorded as "Hans" or "Jan".) <br>The old Dutch colony at New Amsterdam became New York, under British rule, in 1664. Both father and son took the oath of allegiance in 1687.  Hans Teunise Covert and wife Jannetje Brokaw began their family with the birth of daughter Catherine Covert in 1688 in Brooklyn.  The next five children  were born 1690-1699 in Dutch Kills, Long Island NY; and finally two daughters born 1706-1709 in Somerset, New Jersey. <br> His will, signed as Jan Kuvers, yeoman of Millstone, Somerset Co., NJ, was dated 2 May 1719.  His death appears to have come four years later, as the will is probated on 13 April 1723.  In it he names his wife (as "Jane"), his 3 sons and 5 daughters.
