Jan "John" Van Meteren

(Bef 17 Apr 1688 - )

The Van Meter genealogy by Benjamin Franklin Van Meter, 1901, has this Jan (John) Van Meter combined with the one other genealogies claim is the son of Joost Jans and Sarah Du Bois. The same stories of being an Indian Trader and settling in the Potomac are in both. I have recorded here the children as laid out by Anna Hunter Van Meter.
John was a Communicant in the Dutch Church in 1713, and his wife [Ida] in 1731 per Anna H. Van Meter. In 1899, there were no male descendants of John Van Mater in Monmouth County, New Jersey, bearing the name of Van Mater. Kreijn gave real estate to his other sons; to John he gave money.
