      On the 12th of August A.D. 1741, Jannetje Hendrickson married Ruliph Couwenhoven. Their marriage license is published in full page 34 of Wells' Memorial Address at Brick Church. It was signed by Lewis Morris so prominent in the early history of Monmouth county, but at that time Governor of New Jersey. These licenses are all recorded in secretary of state's office at Trenton and in annexed note is a list from records of all licenses issued to the Hendricksons and Hendricks in Monmouth county, between 1748 and 1772. Jannetje and Ruliph Couwenhoven her husband had three children...Ruliph Couwenhoven died intestate in 1746. Letters of administration on his estate were granted same year to his brother, Peter Couvenhoven, and his brothers-in-laws, William Hendrickson and Tunis Denise. Jannetje, however, did not remain a widow long, for the next year, 1747, she married Peter, a son of Jan Schanck and Saartje Couwenhoven of Pleasant Valley. He had lost his first wife, Jannetje VanNorstrand or Ostrandt and was ready for another.
