In Dutch church records she was called "van Haerlem". Sometime during
1660 Jannettje made a voyage to Europe, for what purpose, and whether
accompanied by her husband or not, is not known, but January 11, 1661,
"Jannetje Barents, widow of Jan Guisthout" is entered on the passenger
list of the ship "Golden Eagle" sailing for America. Her husband's death
apparently left her without resources, for August 16, 1663, she filed a
Petition for a writ empowering her to surrender all claim to her late
husband's estate in favor of his creditors, mention being also made of
her infant child, (Dutch MSS., Albany, Vol. 10, pg. 274) but September 6,
1663, the creditors waived all claims against her. Shortly after the
settlement of this matter she married her second husband, Jan Petersen
Bosch. In 1686 Jan Petersen Bosch and Jannetje Barents, his wife, were
living on Smith Street, New York City, New York. (Memorial History, City
of NY, Vol. 1, pg. 451)
