Garrett D. Van Reipen of Jersey City, N.J.
| GARRETT DANIEL VAN REIPEN was born in Bergen, now Jersey City, January 26, 1826. He comes of the old Dutch stock. When a boy, Mr. Van Reipen attended the old Columbia Academy of Bergen, and afterwards finished his education in a private school. Most of his early life was spent on the farm. In 1855 he engaged in the grocery trade. After following that business for three years he gave it up. In 1855 he was elected one of the first aldermen Hudson City ever had. He served one year. In 1856 he was elected mayor of that city, succeeding E. R. V. Wright, who was the first mayor. In 1863 Mr. Van Reipen was re-elected,and filled that position continuously until 1871. When Hudson City was annexed to Jersey City he was elected to the office of alderman, and was president of that body for two years. At the breaking out of the war Mr. Van Reipen was among the first who responded to President Lincoln’s call for volunteers in the three months’ service. He went out as a lieutenant and was made captain of Company A, Second Regiment, on the field. At the close of the war the regiment was reorganized as the Fourth Regiment, N. G., N.J., with Col. Hiram Van Buskirk in command, and Mr. Van Reipen was made reg-imental paymaster. In 1862 Gov. Olden appointed Mr. Van Reipen quartermaster at Camp Olden, located at Hudson City. He held that position until the end of hostilities. In 1868, when the Hudson City Savings Bank was incorporated, Mr. Van Reipen was elected treasurer of that institution, and in 1870 he was made president and treasurer and has presided in that capacity ever since, to the entire satisfaction of stockholders and others interested in the bank. Mr. Van Reipen has been a director in the Hudson County National Bank for a number of years. He is also a member of the American Institute and the Holland Society, of New York City. He is a trustee of the Hudson City Savings Bank,a member of the county board for equalization of taxes, He has filled almost every local position of honor and trust, and commands the universal respect of the entire community.

lived at Rutherford. His wife was probably a sister of
Metje Brouwer, who m. Christophel Van Rype in 1746.
When the latter couple had their child Gerrit baptized,
Sept. 4, 1764, the witnesses were Christophel Jurrianse and
Annatje Brouwer, showing that friendly relations still sub-
sisted between the families, notwithstanding the change in
name. Tradition says that there was a great lawsuit be-
tween these two men, and each being called Christophel
Van Rypen, dire confusion ensued; hence, it was concluded
to call one of them Van Rypen, and the other Jurrianse.
Another version is that there was a hot quarrel between
them, and Christophel Jurrianse got permission to change his
name to Van Rype. Tradition adds, with a particularity
that ought to be convincing, “And it cost him a big lot of
money, too.” As a matter of fact, however, his children,
with one exception, retained the name Jurrianse, or Yere-
ance.

now lives. Fifteen or twenty years later he bought a tract
of 300 acres of land between Waterloo and Geneva, in New
York, and for several years was wont to journey there every
year, to sow fifty or sixty bushels of wheat. He finally sold
his Wesel farm (about 9·89x 60 chains in area, containing
53.90 acres, bounded south by John M. Vreeland and John
Hedden, west on the railroad, north on David Alyea, east
on Passaic river),(5) April 26, 1834, for $5,500, to Simeon
Pye, of New York, a locksmith or lock manufacturer, and

to escape the contagion his family carried him out on his
bed, placed him aboard a periagua, and sailed up the Pas-
saic river. At a point just below Passaic Bridge, a benevo-
lent female, seeing their pitiful plight, invited the fugitives
to come ashore and into her house, declaring that she feared
not the plague. She proved to be a distant relative, and in

ism); he came to this country in 1790 establishing himself
in New York as a merchant tailor. He subsequently re-
moved to Orange county, where he died. On his hundredth
birthday he received a large number of friends, and was
bright, cheerful and vivacious. He remarked to his son
that afternoon that during the sixty-eight years of his mar-
ried life death had never entered his door; neither child,
relative, servant or wayfarer had ever died under his roof!
His venerable wife survived him but four months. She
often told how her father and mother, after the Revolution,
journeyed through the wilderness and over the rugged
mountains, via Shamokin, to the Wyoming valley, to make
their home on the frontier, but were glad enough to get
back to the Wesel neighborhood with their scalps and little
possessions. As a girl she was remarkably lively and
attractive; in maturer years she was a good mother and
thorough helpmeet. Issue:

fequently;walked from Acquackanonk out to Waterloo, N.
Y, to visit his brothers and sisters, upon whom he would
drop in as unceremoniously as if he lived in the next village,
and after a social call of a dlay or two would bid them a
cheerful “Good morning,” and start back on his homeward
walk of two or three hundred miles. On one occasion he
extended his pedestrian journey as far as Cincinnati, in the
early days of that beautiful city. When he was past eighty-
five he thought nothing of walking from Passaic to Pater-

1787; 2d, Rachel Meedt, Nov. 10, 1799; d. of apoplexy,
—–, aged 54 years. He lived on the east bank of the
Passaic river, near the Wesel bridge, where his father had
lived before him. He was a blacksmith by trade. The
neighbors called him “Siemen’s Yerry”-Simon’s Uriah.
Jurie’s nephew, Simeon Van Houten (son of his sister
Lea), having become involved in one of his periodical en-
counters with the law, persuaded his uncle to go security
for his appearance when wanted. In order to indemnify
his uncle, Simeon and his wife Mary conveyed to Jerry Van
Riper, Feb. 13, 1809, two tracts of land in Paterson, one at
the southeast corner of Main street and Broadway, l00 feet
on Main street, and 50 feet deep, formerly owned by the cel-
ebrated Dr. Peter Wilson, of Columbia College ; the other
lot adjoining the same on the south, 55 feet front on Main
street, and 210 feet deep.(l) Simeon finding his situation se-
rious, “jumped his bail.” Word came to Jurrie one night
that Simeon was in hiding in Trenton. Early the next
morning he hitched up a great bald-faced horse, the fastest
and most enduring in his extensive stables, and with his
friend Henry I. Van Blarcom, also one of Van Houten’s
sureties, started for Trenton. It was a drive of sixty or
seventy miles, over rough country roads, but the big horse
got them there the same night. “Sim” was found en-
entrenched in an upper room, fully armed, and threatening to-
shoot the first man who entered. Jurrie called for an axe,
smashed in the door, and dashed in; Van Blarcom threw
his arms around Van Houten, and Jurrie secured him. The
horse was never of much use after this extraordinary drive.

Carl Van Riper (b. 1879)
| Carl Van Riper
CARL VAN RIPER has put himself in the front ranks of lawyers in Western Kansas and has developed a large and influential practice at Dodge City. His career has been identified with Western Kansas since early childhood, and he has the spirit of enterprise which is the characteristic of the people of this region. A native Kansan, Mr. Van Riper was born at Iola December 27, 1879. His father, Joseph Van Riper, now a farmer in Ford County, was born September 2, 1854, in Illinois. Joseph’s father, John, was left an orphan and was reared by a family in Massachusetts. In 1859 he brought his family to Fort Scott, Kansas, but on account of the border troubles in that region, as described on other pages of this history, he moved the following spring to Iola. There he enlisted in the Ninth Kansas Cavalry and was in active service three years in Arkansas, Texas and Mississippi. His record is largely the record of the regiment, which is given elsewhere in this work. He was mustered out without ever having been wounded or captured. Joseph Van Riper was about five years old when the family came to Kansas, and he grew up and married at Iola. In 1885, when his son Carl was six years of age, he moved to the vicinity of Yates Center in Woodson County, and in the spring of 1887 went to the extreme western portion of the state, to Hamilton County. There he took up a claim and managed to exist, though with extreme difficulty, until 1891. He finally gave up the attempt to prove up his homestead. He encountered the scarcity of water and he found the country poorly adapted to farming. All that region was open land and was chiefly used for grazing cattle. While there he acquired a little stock, and not being able to succeed in farming his only improvements were a sod house and dugout stables, such as the majority of homesteaders had. From Hamilton County he moved to Clark County for two years, and there his efforts as a farmer were more successful. He then bought a half section of land in the southwest corner of Ford County, and has since lived there, having made a well improved farm. Joseph Van Riper married Delila George, who was born in West Virginia, in 1857, a daughter of J. W. and Jane George. The George family lived for several generations in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia and became extensive slave holders. All of J. W. George’s brothers were in the Confederate army, while he was a Union soldier, with a West Virginia regiment of infantry. He saw some strenuous service with the Army of the Potomac at Antietam, second Bull Run, Gettysburg, and was at Appomattox Court House when Lee surrendered and was one of the soldiers who secured a couple of small sections of the famous apple tree under which the terms of surrender were concluded between Grant and Lee. This apple tree has always been famous. It was a massive tree before the surrender, but in half an hour’s time not a particle of it was left, even the roots and ground surrounding them being torn up and carried away for relics. The children of Joseph and Delila Van Riper are: Carl; Frank, a farmer and stock buyer and shipper in Ford County, who is married and has four children; John, a lawyer practicing at Denver, Colorado, married and has one child; and Herbert, who is still single and living at home. In the several communities of Western Kansas above mentioned Carl Van Riper had his early experiences and acquired an education in the common schools. He graduated from the high school of Dodge City in the spring of 1900, following which he taught school a year at Minneola. In the fall and winter of 1901-2 he was in the business college at Salina, taking the shorthand and typewriting course. Returning to Dodge City, he entered the law office of Button & Scates, old practitioners of the county, and while doing their stenography applied himself diligently to the study of law. In 1905 he passed the successful bar examination and was admitted to practice, and then continued with the firm as an employe. In 1907 he entered upon his duties as county attorney, to which he had been elected in the preceding fall as the successor of Judge Finley. Mr. Van Riper proved a vigorous prosecutor and maintained to the full the record established by his predecessor against law violators, especially in the enforcement of the prohibitory law. Mr. Van Riper served two terms as attorney for Ford County. On retiring from office he formed a partnership with L. H. Madison, and the firm of Madison & Van Riper still exists and handles much of the legal business in the local courts, and Mr. Van Riper has also tried cases before the Supreme Court of Kansas and the Federal Court. While in the office of county attorney his first case was the prosecution of a party for stealing a white mule. After several continuances, and after the prosecuting witness and others had left the country, the case was finally dismissed. Mr. Van Riper has been a figure in local politics for a number of years, is a republican and cast his first presidential vote for Roosevelt. He is a member of the Masonic Lodge and the Independent Order of Odd Fellows, and was superintendent of the Methodist Sunday School at Dodge City for six years, until he resigned in 1917. He is now a member of the board of trustees of the church. While a great deal may be expected from Mr. Van Riper in the future, since he is still a young man, his success has already been such as to constitute him a prominent lawyer and man of affairs. He owns some wheat land in Morton County and at 801 Fourth Avenue in Dodge City he has a modern home. This home was first built by him in 1905, and in 1916 he remodeled it, making a two-story, eight-room home, with concrete terrace and surrounded by a fine lawn and trees. On June 21, 1905, Mr. Van Riper married Miss Stella Imel, who was born in Jefferson County, Indiana, July 25, 1877. Her father, P. M. Imel, who was born in the same Indiana County October 24, 1847, is a pioneer merchant at Dodge City but now retired. His father, Thomas Imel, was a Virginian, while the grandfather, Peter Imel, was born in Germany and at an early day came with a brother and settled in Virginia. P. M. Imel married Margerite Lyon, daughter of William and Margerite Lyon, who were early settlers in Indiana, P. M. Imel’s mother was Elizabeth Leatherberry, who died in Ford County, Kansas, in 1897, at the age of eighty-one. Her father, Thomas Leatherberry, came from England. Mrs. Van Riper was a teacher of the primary grade in the Second Ward School in Dodge City for eight years. Mr. and Mrs. Van Riper have one child, Ruth.

Rutgina. He came to America with his parents in 1846,
spent three years in Columbia grammar school, New York,
and three years more in the agricultural college at Gronin-
gen, Holland. In 1853 he returned to New York, and in
1854 took up his residence in Passaic county, where he has
been for 40 years an honored and useful citizen. In 1859 he
engaged in the manufacture of varnishes, and later was
connected with his brother, John Rulgert Planten (for many
years Consul of the New Netherlands, in New York), in the
manufacture of drugs. For some years past he has been
interested in Paterson industries. He lives on a handsome
place near Haledon, and owns considerable property in Pat-
erson. As a successful business man, of superior intelli-
gence, he has been frequently called upon by his fellow-cit-
izens of Manchester township to fill various offices—as as-
sessor and collector, school trustee, and Chosen Freehold-
er, 1871, 1882-87 ; he was Director (presiding officer) of the
Board of Chosen Freeholders of the county, 1884-87, per-

1886 he carried through the Board a project by which the
county acquired the greater part of Colt’s Hill (90 city lots,
and the extensive buildings) for court house purposes, for
$115,000 ; but he was in advance of the times ; the action
was criticised, and the bargain was relinquished. Five years
later the county paid $70,000 for 20 lots on the same site,
and the people who questioned Mr. Planten’s judgment in
1886, regretted that his plan had not then been fully consum-
mated. Issue: 1. Herman, b. June l, l858; m. Matilda,

Gerrebrant lived on a farm on the east side of the Passaic

Broad way bridge to Hackensack. This farm (113.02 acres)
and one adjoining (53 acres), formerly the property of his
grandfather, Gerrebrant Gerritse, he sold by deed May 2,
1833, to Brant Van Blarcom, for $8,200,(1) taking in exchange
a plot on the northwest corner of Broadway and Washington
(the deed erroneously says Fair) street, 45×120 feet. For
prudential reasons, the deed for the latter property was
given by Brant Van Blarcom to Cornelius Van Riper, in
trust for the maintenance of his son Gerrebrant, for
life, and then to be conveyed to Gerrebrant’s children. (2)
This transaction turned out better for the Van Ripers than

| EXCERPT FROM “HISTORY OF HUDSON COUNTY” By Charles H. Winfield THE VAN RIPEN FAMILY VAN RIPEN – V. REIPEN – V.REYPEN – V. REIPER – V. REYPER – V.RIPER- V. RYPER This name with its present multitudinous orthography, is derived from the Latin ripa, and was the name of a city on the North bank of the river Nibbs, sometimes called Nipsick, or Gram. North Jutland ( so called to distinguish it from South Jutland or Schleswig), in Denmark was divided into four dioceses, the most southwesterly part of Cimbri, who, at one time, invaded the Roman Empire. (1) Fenning’s Geography ii, 123. In Winfield’s Land Titles, the name is written Rypen. It is thus laid down on a map of Denmark in old geographical work, published in London during the reign of Queen Anne, the title page of which, of the copy I have ,is destroyed. I am now satisfied, from the origin of the word, that the name should be written Ripen, and it is thus written in the text and on a map in Fenning. Every other way of writing it is clearly wrong, though sanctioned by generations. Juriaen Tomassen had ch,: 2. I. Tomas (III), bap. June 10, 1668; m.

Yerry’s Stoffel”—-Christopher Uriah’s Christopher. He
bought from the heirs of Dr. Ebenezer Blachley, April 30,
1814, for $1,750, the former residence of the Doctor—a
long frame building, two stories high, set a few feet back
from the street, on a half-acre plot on the south side of
Market street, 125 feet 9 inches east of Clark street, or, as
the deed says: “beginning at a stake standing in the south
side of the street leading from the Factory to the bridge
erected by Thomas Kean, and distant from the margin of
the brook at the south end of said bridge about 230 feet,”
etc.(1) The plot was 66 feet front on Market street, by 330
feet deep. By deed Feb. 22, 1830, from the S. U. M., for
$175, he added a plot 25×300 feet on the east side of his
first purchase.(2) The ground in the rear of the house was
low and swampy until within fifteen or twenty years. In
the yard was a well, with an old-fashioned sweep attached.
The house had the entrance in the middle of the front, ap-
proached by a small stoop, on one side of which was a cellar
door. “Stoffel,” as he was always called, was a carpenter
by trade; he had a shop back of his house, and employed
three or four men when he had occasion, and at other times
worked as a journeyman. In person, he was very short and
very stout, and like most corpulent men he had an unfailing
fund of humor, enjoying nothing better than a joke, under
any and all circumstances. His fame rests principally
upon his military prowess, for he was Captain of one of the
unorganized militia companies, which in his day were com-
posed of the citizens who were required by law to turn out
periodically for training. They were a motley crew, with-
out uniforms or arms, often in their shirt-sleeves. “Stoffel”
entered heartily into the absurdity of the spectacle, as at-
tested by countless stories that have come down to us. Yea,
even the poetic muse has been invoked to celebrate the
martial deeds of his “trained band:”
“March! March’
Stoffel Van Riper’s men!
Up to the sidewalk, and right away back again.”
Or thus:
“Stoffel Van Riper!
Stoffel Van Riper!
Turn out your toes when you go ‘round a corner.
Stoffel Van Riper!
Stoffel Van Riper!”
When drilling the men in “marking time,” his order
would be, “Hay foot, straw foot.” Once when parading on
Main street, between Ward and Oliver, he was somewhat
puzzled, but finally gave the command, “With your backs to
the Sandy Hill,(3) and your fronts to the Brick Church,(4) for-
ward, march !” At another time his company were advanc-
ing across a field; they approached a fence; “Stoffel” for-
got how to stop them, and the men, in a spirit of mischief,
began climbing the fence into a cultivated field. In de-
spair, their commander appealed to Capt. Garrabrant: “Cap-
tain, Captain, stops my men!” “Halt!” rang out the order.

“Gracious! why couldn’t I think of that,” ejaculated
“Stoffel.” One day he was drilling his company in Market
street, opposite his residence, and was particularly zealous
to impress his wife and neighbors with his dignity and his
abilities. As he put the company through one manoeuvre
after another, he gradually backed nearer and nearer to his
house—and suddenly disappeared through the open cellar
door! In great alarm his wife ran to his relief. But the
military instinct was uppermost in his breast; he waved her
imperiously away, even as he lay tumbled in a heap at the
foot of the cellar steps, and majestically exclaimed: “Go
away, woman! what do you know about WAR?” The day
at last came, however, when the doughty warrior had to
lay aside his sword and succumb to a greater conqueror.

Minnie – WHO CAN HELP?
| I’m trying to research an aunt of mine named Wilhelmina (Minnie ) Begelspacker ( or Begelspiker ), born in 1858. She married @1882 Cornelius Van Riper, born @ 1853 in New York. In 1900, they lived at 41 Harrison Avenue Richmond County ( Staten Island ), New York. They evidently had a daughter named Vance born in New Jersey @1886.
I would be interested in finding out more information about this |
