# WEMPLE (WEMP)
* JAN BARENTSE WEMP alias Poest (?) arrived in Beverwyck in 1643-5, where he owned several lots; received contract from Madam Johanna De Laet for a bouwery at Lubberde's Land (Troy), which his heirs in 1669-72 conveyed to Pieter Pieterse Van Waggelum whom Wemp's son Myndert, sued in 1675 for the fourth payment. This bouwery was on the Poestenkil, which was probably named from his alias. He also received in 1662 a patent, in company with Jacques Cornelise Van Slyck, for the Great island lying immediately west of Schenectady, and a house lot in the village on the west side of Washington Street, a little north of State Street. His wife was Maritie Myndertse, who, after his decease in 1663, again married Sweer Teunise Van Velsen, the village miller; both were killed at the massacre of Feb. 9, 1690. Ch. b: Myndert, 1649; Grietje, 1651; Anna, 1653, m. Sander Glen; Barent, 1656; Johannes; Aeltie, m. Jan Cornelise Van der Heyden of Beverwyck.

# Capt. SANDER, son of Sander Leendertse, settled at Schenectady; made his will July 19, 1690, and letters of administration were issued to Antje his widow, Feb. 20, 1696; left his linen and woolen clothes and weapons to the sons of his two brothers Jacob and Johannes; to Sander, son of his brother Johannes, his gun; if his wife marry again, she was to have half the property, the other half to go to his brothers children, &c., from which it would seem that Capt. Glen left no children, and that his death occurred about the year 1695. He was Justice of the Peace for Albany County. His wife was Antje, dau. of Jan Barentse Wemp; after his death, she m. Abraham Groot, April 15, 1696.
