BIydenburgh Family. Augustine Blydenburgh was a Hollander who, in 1676, with his wife Silvestia lived m the present Stone Street, New York, where he owned two houses. He died in 1686, leaving a last will, now on file in the New York Surrogate's office. He had children, Joseph, William, Benjamin, Samuel and Mary, wife of Harmon King of Flushing. The will speaks of William, as then, August 22, 1685, at sea, and provision is made in case he should not return. Presumably he never returned, as his mother's will in Dec. 1688, makes no mention of him. There is no further trace of Samuel. Benjamin went to England in 1695, returned to New York and went to South Carolina about 1704. He was a cordwainer by trade.
