History of Richmond County, New York, 1887



Braisted Family



Though this name has been identified with the county for a century and a half, the earliest notice of it in the old church records, is that of William and Christina Bouwman his wife, who had a son Johannes, baptized in 1715, and a son Andrjes. August 18, 1719. In the county records we meet with him as having purchased land in 1730.

Johannes, or John, son of William, married Trintje Haughwout, and had a son Jan, ,or John, baptized August 18, 1741, and a son Peter, baptized August 15, 1743. We then lose trace of the family for thirty years; then it appears again in the name of Egbert and Rachel his wife, who had a son Egbert, born May 6, 1773.

The next and only remaining notice we have of the family in the last century is the marriage of John and Nautchie (Anna) Martling, daughter of John Martling, February 14, 1790. The family is now represented by Capt. J. Braisted, of Edgewater, and a family or two at Watchogue.
