REYERSZ, REYERSZEN or RYERSS [modern Ryerson]
Adriaen, therefore, became the first progenitor of the Adriaensen [since Adriaense or Adriance] family in America, also of the Martense family, [now extinct], of Flatbush, L. I., and the Ryers, or Ryerss, family of Staten Island, a branch of the Ryerson family. The descendants of his brother Martin's family are all known by the name of Ryerson and Ryerse. The peculiar Dutch custom of changing the names has been explained in the previous part of this work. While the name of Reyersz is of considerable antiquity in Holland and belongs to the privileged classes they retained their Dutch family name until coming to America. In all probability the spirit of liberty and democracy which prevailed in the colonies led Adriaen to permit his children to follow the local American custom. Hence his two older sons, Elbert and Martin, became the ancestor of the Adriance and the Martense families.
Elbert Ariaensen married Catalina Remse [Van der Beck], daughter of Rem Jansen and Jannetje Jorise Rapalje, at Reformed Protestant Dutch Church, Flatbush, Kings Co., Long Island, New York, on 18 April 1689.
