Notes:
CHR:Leerdam, Holland. The ship records say he was 15 years of age when he The ship records indicate that he was fifteen years of when he arrived in America, but he was actually sixteen years and five months. Barent is the Dutch form of Bernard or Bernhart. Their custum of naming children was, that the eldest son was named for the maternal grandfather and second son for the paternal grandfather. It is possible there was a child born before Barent, who was named for the paternal grandfather. On early records, heis shown as Barnt Tice, and Barn Tiss. I am not sure if it was he or his children that changed to Swaim, or why. His will was dated 7 Sep 1719 at Staten Island, New York.
