This is what I got from the CD of Jack Middaugh.SponsorsAhasuerus van Kleeck;Hester laRoy his wife.
Hester MIDDAGH, born 9 Aug 1772. She married John TERPENNING. John is shown as the husband of Hester because Hester's father's (Jacobus') will states Hester was the wife of John. Hester died before 27 Dec 1853.
Hester was named after her paternal grandmother. Hester may have married Boudewine CORTRIGHT. Such a marriage is reported in KORTREGT genealogies and there are records of three children being baptized in the Clove Valley DRC (5/6/1803, 5/4/1805 & 6/20/1809) with Boudewine COURTRIGHT
and Hester MEDDAG as the parents. However, nothing has been found to prove Hester of the baptism records is the d/o Jacobus MIDDAGH and Lena VIELE other than she is of the right age and lives in the right geographical area.
I am showing Jacobus & Sarah as her parents and a Hester m. to Boudewine Cortright and her parents as Daniel Middaugh and Marie Buntschoten.I don't know if either is correct.
