Looking for Bogart/Bogert information in N.Y.C. area from the 1600s

by David Coward

Jan 28, 2015

I just joined the Dutch Group.  I am looking for information on Bogart/Bogert families who lived in Brooklyn, NY, from the 1600s and then moved to Bergen County, NJ by the 1750s.  My 4th great-grandfather fought in the Revolutionary War in a  Bergen County militia.  I am looking for information going back in time with reliable and valid sources.  Thank you.

    Hi Meech:

    This past Sunday I sent you a long Bogert e-mail to your GSBC archivist e-mail address that I found in the latest edition of the GSBC's publication The Archivist.  I don't know how often you read e-mails at that address, so here's an alert.

      Hello Cousin!  At least I think we are very distant cousins. I am a GGGGGgrand child of Cornelius Bogert from the Hackensack area. I have a lot of information on my site on Ancestry.com. Ours is a wonderful colonial family. Cornelius filed for damages after the war and it is very interesting to see all the items he lost. Sadly, also a slave.  Apparently he was a man of means. If you go to his page on my Ancestory.com you will see a reference to the inventory as well as some other interesting things. My tree is open so feel free. I have visited his grave and posted several photos. Have fun!
