see below for a note...
Note that FDR is a HALF 6th COUSIN of Maggie (and all her siblings.) We and the Roosevelts share Jacomyntje Cornelisdocter Sleght as, in my case, 7th great grandmother. This chart shows Jans Barentsen Kunst, her first husband who was the father of her first three kids including the gal leading to the Roosevelts. Jacomyntje then matched up with a Foecken fellow for three more kids and finally she married Jan Roelofszen Eltinge in 1672 in Kingston in Ulster County, New York. Jan and Jacomyntje had five more kids, the fourth was Geertje Janse Elting, our ancestor.
Geertje left the Dutch folks to marry Thomas Hall, an Englishman (that did not go over well with her family - I'll speak to that somewhere else.)
