HOME THE VAN WAGENEN GENEALOGYHolland Dutch Families - Van Wagenen, Van Wagoner, Van Wagner, Van Wagnen           Carl Stone Van Wagenen I'm back on line at Cvanwagenen@hvc.rr.com with a new computer, so if you weren't able to get me, please try again. Thanks. Greetings to all my VAN WAGENEN, VAN WAGONER, VAN WAGNER, and VAN WAGNEN relatives, even those who have managed to spell your name incorrectly for the past two-hundred years. I will be making periodic changes as research demands and I invite you to return every now and then to see what's happening, and to perhaps make a comment or two about the content of my website. There's an email link at the bottom of this page and I urge you to drop me a note. CURRENT NEWS: If you go to see the new movie "Charlie Wilson's War" you will see that a Jim Van Wagenen is portrayed and prominently featured. Yes, he's of the Jacob Aertsen Van Wagenen family line.NEW !!! A NEW AND COMPLETE FULL-NAME INDEX OF VAN WAGENEN, VAN WAGONER, VAN WAGNER, VAN WAGNEN FAMILIES - The names that are indexed and if you will take a moment to write me at my email address: Cvanwagenen@hvc.rr.com. I'll be glad to tell you whatever I can about your ancestry. April 2007 - If you happen to be a VAN WAGONER with roots in Ontario, Canada (Saltfleet inparticular), I urge you to check page 5 of my website. I have posted all of the information that I've accumulated over the past several years about this family.I am doing census research about 5 or 6 hours per day and have made amazing discoveries with regard to "new" family lines. If you have made previous inquiries that I couldn't answer, please try again and see if perhaps I've discovered your ancestral lineage. Thanks.My apologies to those who may have tried to access my website at various times last year, and got nothing for their efforts. I did not realize that there was a restriction on how much text I could have on any single page and got carried away. I've now corrected the problem and welcome you to Cvanwagenen.comBOOK ONE IS STILL FOR SALE: I don't wish to be commercial, however it appears that some family members do not realize that my first book "JACOB VAN WAGENEN of Wageningen, Holland" is still available. This book, published in 1994, is hardcovered, contains 440 acid free pages of Van Wagenen, Van Wagoner, Van Wagner, and Van Wagnen family lines, and is fully indexed by the V.W. first name and spouse last name. Full price for this book is $50 which covers shipping. Check or cash to me at my home address, 32 Barbara's Court, Saugerties, NY 12477. January 2008: My second book "Gerrit Aertsen Van Wagenen of Wageningen, Holland" is nearing completion. There are still many family lines which are incomplete, either because I have failed to find the connection, or because family members who have been contacted, have as yet failed to respond to my inquiries. I urge anyone who has not yet corresponded with me or made e-mail contact, to do so before summer is over. I am going to have to close my research records in order to concentrate on completing my final draft. If you belong in this second book please check with me to see if I have your family data. I'd hate to miss including you and your family members.I understand that many people are unwilling to share personal information because of the "stolen identity" problem that is currently making us all so wary. I can state with some certainty that thus far (over 27 years) there has not been one instance of identity theft reported to me as a result of my research. Another point for you to consider: When I began my research in 1979, I knew the names of my grandparents but nothing more. I was under the impression that my Van Wagenen family had come to America sometime in the early 1900's. There were lots of other Van Wagenen's in the area telephone books, but my father assured me that none of them were related to us. I had no idea that when I was attending high school from 1948 thru 1952 and was walking around the streets of the City of Kingston in Ulster County, New York, that my ancestors had lived there inside a tall wooden stockade which was erected to protected them from the Indians. That was in the mid 1750's. Now, some 250 years, I know just about everything about each of my early ancestors. And you may be able to do so also! Not sure of your heritage? Don't know who your grandparents were or whether you are of Dutch or German descent? It won't cost you a nickle to find out if you'll just send me an email and make the inquiry. I'll let you know one way or the other and you may find yourself on a marvelous journey of family discovery. I urge you to send either an email message to me, or write a letter. And please..... if you have found my website, I urge you to pass it along to any family members who are on-line. Thanks. A NOTE OF CAUTION ABOUT IMPOSTERS: At some point you may receive a postcard or letter from publishing firms in Ohio or Pennsylvania named Talbot’s, Inc., and “Mary Whitney - American Genealogist”. These firms will try to convince you that they have your family history ready for publication and will ask you to send $29.95 for your “reserved” copy. Mary Whitney will even send you a lovely photograph of her family; husband, kids and all, hoping that you'll be convinced that without the book you won't know who your ancestors are. What they won’t tell you is that they are both frauds. They know absolutely nothing about your family genealogy,and they could care less. What they do care about is separating you from your money. What they will send you for your money is a brief history of early America and will include a few pages at the back of the book, listing people with your last name and giving a home address. This list consists of names that they have purloined from phone directories across the nation and will tell you absolutely nothing about your family ancestry. Both of these firms are counting on you buying their book out of curiosity, and further banking on you not asking for your money back after you discover that you’ve been had. I urge you to not fall for this deceptive sales pitch. Throw the letter in the trash where it belongs. ANOTHER FRAUD: You may also receive an email or other solicitation from various websites or business enterprises which will tell you that for a sum of money they will send you an "Authentic" Coat-of-Arms for your family name. In some instances this may be true (some people really are related to William the Conqueror), but in the case of the Van Wagenen families (by any spelling), it too is a fraud. The Van Wagenen family came to America from Holland because they had nothing to lose and everything to gain. They were for the most part very poor and certainly had no royal blood coursing through their veins. As a matter of fact, our Netherlands ancestors didn’t even have a last name. It was not until thirty years after they arrived in America (about 1660), that they adopted the name of "Wageningen" after the town in Holland from which they had immigrated. And a number of years after that before they added the "Van" which in old-Dutch meant "of" or "from", hence: Carl of Wageningen (or) Carl Van Wagenen. The chief perpetrator of this fraud is "Heraldics@aol.com". Please do not buy into their deceptive practice.SOJOURNER TRUTH: Isaac D. Van Wagenen was born 10/11/1796 and died 10/15/1867. He married Maria Schoonmaker, born 10/20/1800, the daughter of Johannis S. Schoonmaker and Elizabeth Van Wagenen. They are buried in the Van Wagenen Cemetery at St. Remy, New York (near Kingston). About 1797 Sojourner Truth was born a slave named Isabelle Hardenburgh at the home of Col. Johannis Hardenburgh in Swartkill, near Rifton, in what is now the Town of Esopus. She was freed in 1827 and became an ardent abolitionist, a preacher, a temperance leader and woman’s rights advocate. She died on November 16, 1883 at her home in Battle Creek, Michigan and she is buried there. Sojourner claimed to have been born in Africa, but it is more likely that her parents were born there, and that she was born in Hurley. She and her parents were later bequeathed to Col. Hardenburgh’s son, Charles, and when he died a few years later her parents were freed but she was sold at auction. Isabelle, or Belle, as she was called, was about 9 or 10 years old at the time and she was included with a flock of sheep and sold to John Neely for $100 for the lot. She was later sold to Martin Schryver, a fisherman, tavern keeper and farmer. About a year after that, about 1810, Belle was purchased by John Dumond, a wealthy landowner from New Paltz for over $300 and he married her off to his elderly slave Tom. Belle was Tom’s third wife, his others having been sold to other masters, and Belle bore him five children who then became the property of Dumond, not of Tom or Belle. It was one of these children, a boy named Peter, who was sold away at age 5 to the Gedney family of New Paltz. Gedney in turn sold the child to his brother-in-law, who then gave the boy to his daughter in Alabama. Taking Peter out of New York State was a violation of the law. Belle ran away from the Dumonds in 1826, one year prior to the time when all slaves would be emancipated in New York. She had been promised her freedom one year earlier, but Dumond reneged on his promise “because the birth of her child had deprived him of her services for awhile”. Belle escaped with her infant daughter Sophia and went to the home of Isaac and Maria Van Wagenen, who were members of the Dutch Reformed Church but were well known in the area for their "Quaker like" anti-slavery sympathies. Dumont came to retreive his property but Van Wagenen refused to turn her over to him, and instead paid him $20 for Belle and the $5 for the child. The Van Wagenen’s urged Belle to go to the courts and try to get her son back from Alabama. Belle subsequently swore out a complaint against Gedney before the Grand Jury, and as Gedney was subject to both a prison term and a fine, he had the boy returned to the Ulster County and the court then awarded custody to Belle.
