1. David VAN SLYKE-[331] ,1,2 son of VAN SLYKE -[9893] and Unknown -[9892], was born on 7 Jun 1820 in , , New York, USA, 3,4 died on 6 Jun 1902 in Lincoln Park, Fremont, Colorado, USA 4 at age 81, and was buried on 8 Jun 1902 in Lakeside Cemetery, Caρon City, Fremont, Colorado, USA. 4,5 The cause of his death was "?" Paralysis.4

Death Notes: Death occurred at 8:00 pm.

Research Notes: In 1850, David and family live in Lenox Twp., Madison Co., New York. There are several other Vanslikes living in the same county, but only one married couple of a suitable age to be his parents: John and Lydia Vanslike, both born in New York which I know should be correct for David's parents as per the 1880 and 1900 censuses.

Roger Peterson, in an email to Robert Baebenroth, stated, "Christopher came to Iowa with a brother David and a Sylvanes who was either a brother or uncle." Roger goes on to explain, "In 1990 two others and I hired a researcher in Madison Co., NY who found some things but nothing to extend the family back from the generation of John Van Slyke. I communicated at that time with Judy Krygier, 835 Sage Circle, Lincoln, Neb. 68520 who was descended from David Van Slyke, Christopher's brother. One of my co-researchers was Janet Dryer, 694 Sage Circle, Highlands Ranch, CO 80126, a descendant of Sylvenus Van Slyke, Christopher's brother or young uncle."

If the Christopher Robert speaks of is a son of Jacob and Elizabeth VS, then they also may be David's parents.
