Generation: 1

  1. 1.  Adam BELCHER was born about 1700 (son of Andrew BELCHER, III and Mary SANDS).

    Notes:

    Name:
    Adam Belcher of Second River (Belleville), New Jersey, born about 1700; married about 1720, Maria Vander Poel. Four sons were baptized in the Second River Dutch Reformed Church. By graveyard epitaphs we find a son Born in 1723 named Jacob, and a son Henry who was probably born in the interval between the births of Jacob and Johannes; the latter, born May 5, 1730, being the oldest of those baptized in Second River.

    The family name appears in the three earlier entries as Pelser and Pelsers, and suddenly changes to Belsher in the fourth entry. (The Dutch have no sound of 'ch' soft); Belcher would be Pelser or Belser to a Dutchman until the name was carefully spelled to him.
