<p>I just joined this group and see a LOT of names I have worked with. My line is Jackson and I have a website dedicated to the descendants of Robert Jackson (<a href="http://www.jacksonfamilygenealogy.com">www.jacksonfamilygenealogy.com</a>) and in the process of researching his early family I also had to pick up information about all these intermarried families like Birdsall, Seaman, Titus, Townsend, Underhill, Willets, etc.</p>

<p>I just joined this group and see a LOT of names I have worked with. My line is Jackson and I have a website dedicated to the descendants of Robert Jackson (<a href="http://www.jacksonfamilygenealogy.com">www.jacksonfamilygenealogy.com</a>) and in the process of researching his early family I also had to pick up information about all these intermarried families like Birdsall, Seaman, Titus, Townsend, Underhill, Willets, etc.</p>
<p>I've begun to slowly add my data base (in small bits) to the free, collaborative, wiki site (<a href="http://www.WeRelate.org">www.WeRelate.org</a>) and <span style="text-decoration: underline;">could use a lot of help</span>. I'd love to recruit folks that have studied Long Island colonial ancestors to contribute what they know to the WeRelate site. <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Think wikipedia for genealogists!</span> Wiki is a challenge for me but I think the free collaborative features are worth the effort. </p>
<p>In an effort to cut down on GEDCOM uploads of trees just copied from someone else's tree with no sources, the site has limited GEDCOM uploads to folks born 1750 and later. But earlier folks can be added manually. That limit is sort of a pain but it is helping the site have a much better quality of information available. The site is big on sources so plan to upload your sources with your data. </p>
<p>There is a tutorial both video and text for new users of the site. So come explore and see what all can be done on a wiki site. Together we can build something really good!</p>

Attached is a file on 6 generations of the family that originated in the Netherlands. It is about 114 pages long and includes notes and sources. Additions/corrections are greatly appreciated. I have not worked on this for about a year so have some other stuff that needs to be added but it is mainly later time period then what is posted.<br />
<br />
Have about 20 pages of couples where I cannot connect and will post those later but not all of them are in the Long Island area.<br />
<br />
Thanks for any leads offered,…

I'd like to open a discussion for those of us seeking information about our colonial (1600s-1700s) ancestors in Long Island. Many were dissidents who left Massachusetts Bay seeking religious freedom; some of these were Quaker, and others followers of Anne Hutchinson. Some of the names among my ancestors there are Underhill, Weeks, Merritt, Titus, Willlis, Willets, Haviland, Seaman, Kirby, Jackson, Franklin, Coles, Cock, Bowne, with much intermarriage among them.

I've had lots of fun searching for my husband's Queens ancestors in the Brooklyn Daily Eagle and other local papers. Here are 2 sites I've found<br />
