DOWNLOAD EBOOKA Mr. Van Hoosear was probably born in Holland before 1736, and immi- grated in the late 1750s or early 1760s to the south side of Long Island, New York. His only son, Rinear Van Hoosear (ca. 1756/1757- 1819), was born in Holland, served in the Revolutionary War, and married Mercy (Marcy?) Taylor in 1782. They lived in Connecticut, in New York, and finally in Wilton, Connecticut. Descendants and relatives lived in New England, New York and elsewhere. The introduction discusses and rejects the oft-stated belief that the Van Hoosear family are descendants of the Van Hoesen of The Netherlands.
