Fytie Brouwer's second husband was Mattys Cornelissen. ...they were married with banns dated 20 Feb 1692, recorded at Flatbuxh. Fytie and Mattys had two sons, both baptized in Brooklyn. Both sons assumed the surname Van Horne (Van Horn, Vanhorne) and settled in Hunterdon County, New Jersey.
...Matthys' marriage banns state he was from Jutland (Denmark). Researchers of the Van Horne/Van Horn family need to be aware that there is another, unrelated and distinct, Van Horn family found in New York and New Jersey.

Unfortunately, some researchers have already placed Matthys Cornelisson in this very different and very wrong Van Horn family from The Netherlands.
