Joris Van Middleswaert&lt;br&gt;Also known as: Joris DeNyse&lt;br&gt;Gender: Male&lt;br&gt;Birth: 1662 - New Amsterdam, Colony of New Netherlands, Netherlands&lt;br&gt;Marriage: Spouse: Femmetje Polhemus - Circa 1686 - of Amsterdam, Kings, NY&lt;br&gt;Parents: <a>Teunis Nyssen</a>, <a>Phoebe Sales</a>&lt;br&gt;Wife: <a>Femmetje Van Middleswaert (born Polhemus)</a>&lt;br&gt;Siblings: <a>Dionys Tunessen DeNyse</a>, <a>Jan Teunise Van Middleswaert</a>, <a>Jannetje Teunis Devries (born Denyse)</a>, <a>Cornelius Tunison</a>, <a>Femmetje Teunis Bergen (born Nyssen)</a>, <a>Elsje Snedeker (born Theunis)</a>, <a>Annatje Rappleye (born Teunis)</a>, <a>Marritje Teunis Woertman (born DeNyse)</a>, <a>Jacob Janse Buys</a>&lt;br&gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;Additional information: <br> <br>LifeSketch: Joris Nyssen / Van (Von) Middlebout / Van (Von) Middleswaert / Van (Von) Middleswarth / Van (Von) Midwout is an interesting case. We have minimal information about him other than the supposition of Teunis Bergen (see Register of the Early Settlers of Kings Co, Long Island by Teunis G Bergen pg 94) that he was a child of Teunis Nyssen, probably mostly because brother Jan Teunise Van Middleswaert took the name Van (Von) Middlebout/Van (Von) Middleswaert around the same time to differentiate themselves from other Tunisons/Nyssens in the area (signifying that they were from Midwout (Middlebout), being the settlement between Flatbush and Brooklyn). (Van being most commonly used, although Von - Dutch for from - is also seen on some genealogies.
