The Courtright (Kortright) Family: Descendants of Bastian Van Kortryk, a Native of Belgium Who Emigrated to Holland About 1615 (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from The Courtright (Kortright) Family: Descendants of Bastian Van Kortryk, a Native of Belgium Who Emigrated to Holland About 1615
This book, the result of twenty years research during leisure time, may be of some assistance to those of other branches of the Courtright family who are not familiar with its history, but it is by no means complete, nor free from errors.
It is more especially designed to preserve a genealogy of Benjamin Cortright, through his sons Cornelius, Henry and John, who came from Minisink district in Northampton County soon after the Revolution and settled in Plains, Luzerne County, Pennsylvania, in the Wyoming Valley, leaving descendants now widely dispersed. It also includes a partial genealogy of the descendants of Elisha Cortright, a cousin, who came to the Valley at an early date.
Records of the Harlem branch of the family herein contained have been taken literally from the accurate and well written History of Harlem by James Riker, and from numerous other authorities, while all baptisms and early marriages will be found in the published records of the Reformed Dutch churches of New Amsterdam, Kingston, Rochester, Sleepy Hollow, Wawarsing, Smithfield, Machackemeck, (Deerpark) Walpeck and other places.
The sketches of the Abbott and Gore families are largely quotations from Oscar J. Harvey's History of Wilkes-Barre, Pa., while much information has been gleaned from the publications of the New York Genealogical and Biographical Society, the Pennsylvania Archives, and many other sources.
There are Cortrights among the early generations of whom nothing more will ever be known than name and date of baptism, some of whom died young, and others who married and may be traced through generations now unrecorded.
Many children were born, of whom there is no record, owing to frequent migration of young couples to new settlements where there was no established church, and in many instances church rec...
