Family notes

https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Woertman-20

There is an extremely well researched and sourced series that has just concluded in the NYG&B Record covering the early Sicard/Secord family in America (beginning Volume 150 Issue 1 and ending Volume 151 Issue 3). In this the author argues that Catherine is not the daughter of Dirck Janse Woertman and Marritje (Theunisse) Teunis since she was not named in Dirck's will. She was assigned to these parents by previous researchers because she and Daniel Secord were sponsors for a child of Denys Dircksen Woertman. The author suggests instead that she was not sister to Denys but rather a step-sister, and was in fact the daughter of Dirck's second wife Anneken Aukes and her first husband Wynant Pieterszen.
