| Anecdote | 1689 | George Nicholas Hack was not only a magistrate of the county, he also had intellectual leanings-in 1689, he discussed the political/religious situation and had two or three London Gazettes on a table by a bed. In light of this, his confession of early 1697, is somewhat surprising; he didn't know how old his children were. He admitted that by "inadvertency he had neglected in setting down ye ages of his children by which means ye certain ages of his children could not be known." He claimed that this ignorance was the cause of his failure to pay taxes on his son Spencer, who had become old enough to be a tithable.10 |

| Marriage* | circa 1645 | He married Ann Varlet, daughter of Casper 'Jasper' Varlet and Judith Taintenier, circa 1645 at Amsterdam, Holland. That Dr. Hack was married to Ann Varlett is proven by a document recorded in the Northampton books; this was a deed from Jervrien Blanck of New Amsterdam to "Mrs. Anna Varlet the wife of Mr. George Hacke dwelling in Virginia," and was for the pinnance FORTUNE and specified the equipment that went with it. Casper Varlett and Nicholas Varlett were securities for the payment by Mrs. Hack of 1,300 guilers, and William Varlett, brother of Anna, accepted the pinnance for her account..4,5,6 |

| Anecdote* | 1659 | In 1659 another certificate for land was issued to Dr. Hack for the transportation of George Nichloas Hack, Sepherin Hack and An Kathrine Hack. The first listed has not been identified by Whitelaw, but he may have been a son who was born earlier; Sepherin is believed to have been a brother of Dr. Hack, who was later killed by the Indians in Maryland; an the An Kathrine is believed to have been the mother of Dr. Hack.11 |

Ann Varlet
F, b. circa 1622, d. before 8 July 1685
| Birth* | circa 1622 | Ann was born circa 1622 at Amsterdam, Holland.4,5 |
| Marriage* | circa 1645 | She married Dr. George 'Joris' Hack, son of Severin Hack and Katherine Varlet, circa 1645 at Amsterdam, Holland. That Dr. Hack was married to Ann Varlett is proven by a document recorded in the Northampton books; this was a deed from Jervrien Blanck of New Amsterdam to "Mrs. Anna Varlet the wife of Mr. George Hacke dwelling in Virginia," and was for the pinnance FORTUNE and specified the equipment that went with it. Casper Varlett and Nicholas Varlett were securities for the payment by Mrs. Hack of 1,300 guilers, and William Varlett, brother of Anna, accepted the pinnance for her account..6,7,2 |
| Married Name | circa 1645 | As of circa 1645,her married name was Hack. |
| Anecdote* | | Already well-connected in the Netherlands and New Amsterdam, Herrman solidified his trade to the Chesapeake when he married Jannetje Varlet (var. Warleth) in December 1651. Varlet was also the sister of Anna Varlet, who had recently moved to Virginia after marrying German-born Dr. George Hack. Trading on her own account, Anna Varlet Hack organized a steady trade between the Chesapeake and New Netherland. Soon after he married her sister, Herrman became one of Anne Varlet Hack's trading partners. Seeking to further augment his Chesapeake trade, Herrman also acquired land in Northampton County on Virginia's Eastern Shore, near Hack's plantation, in 1655. Whether he intended to plant tobacco there or simply use his land as a place to store trade goods is unclear, but it is more certain that Herrman did not remain in Virginia long. By January 1656 he was back on the South River as one of the witnesses of a land sale between the West India Company and the Native American inhabitants of lands along the Schuylkill River just north of its intersection with the Delaware. At the same time, Herrman also began to trade to the Caribbean, mixing personal trade with work on behalf of the West India Company.2 |

Casper 'Jasper' Varlet1
M, b. circa 1590, d. September 1662
| Birth* | circa 1590 | Casper was born circa 1590. |
| Anecdote* | | According to Henrietta (Ayres) Sheppard, since the Chrisitian named of Nicholas came down in the family of Nikolaus Varlet of Cologne, Germany, and in that of Casper Varlet of Amsterdam, Holland, it seems highly probable that they were closely related, but in what way has not as yet been established. She also states that name of Varleth has an unmistakable French structure, a corruption of perhaps Valet, and it is no improbable it was borne by some French exile who took refuge in Holland, in order to escape the religious persecutions of his native land, which prevailed during the latter part of the 16th century. The first members of the family in New Netherland (New York) were natives of Utrecht and Amsterdam, Holland.1 |
| Marriage* | 17 October 1615 | He married Judith Taintenier, daughter of Abraham Taintenier, on 17 October 1615 at Utrecht, Holland.2 |
| Anecdote* | 1633 | Casper or Jasper Varleth, the ancestor of the family bearing his name in New Amsterdam (New York), was an early resident of the Dutch settlement of Fort Good Hope, Harford, Conn., and was there, according to Savage's Genealogical Dictionary, Vol. IV, p. 365, perhaps as early as the completion of the Fort in 1633. He may have been domiciled for a short time at New Amsterdam (New York), as we find reference made to an inventory of articles taken at his house in July 1651 and that his son-in-law, Paulus Schrick, on 17 Oct 1661, petitioned for a deed of a house and lot on the Fresh Water, Manhttan Island, sold to him by his said father-in-law. He was shown as a Dutchman of some consequence at Hartford in 1656, who may have lived there near 30 years and died there in September 1662, who had a wife Judith who died before him, and children Nicholas, Mary Judith and Jane. Beside these he probably had a daughter Catharina, born in Amsterdam, who married Francois De Bruyn in New Amsterdam, in August 1657.3 |
| Death* | September 1662 | Casper 'Jasper' Varlet died in September 1662 at Hartford, CT.3 |

He was shown as a son Francis Ayres and given 289 1/2 acres where I now live in the will of Francis Ayres. In the patent which was dated 23 Dec 1714 it is stated that this land had escheated from Wm. Gowers (will dated 31 Jul 1668). As the latter had bequeathed 300 acres of land to Francis, father of Francis 2nd, it is apparent why the patent was claimed and issued..1,4 |
| Land sold* | 6 1723 | Francis sold land on 6 1723 at Accomack Co, VA. It was in this year that Francis Ayres sold for 10 shillings and 7 barrels of corn his right in land sold by John Ayres Junr during his life to George Haizlup (this was merely to clear the title as this father Francis would have inherited from John Ayres as heir at law to this brother and Francis Ayres 2nd, the eldest son of Francis 1st, would have had his right in the land, hence the quit claim.) This shows that John Ayres Jr., mariner, left no male descendants, as his nephew Francis 2nd inherited part of his land..4 |

| Birth* | 1733 | Jacob was born in 1733 at Accomack Co, VA. According to Turman, Jacob Ayres was born in 1729 or earlier according to estimation from his youngest brother's death. However Ayres, Dawson and Allied Families shows 1733-1736..2,3 |
| Marriage* | circa 1755 | He married Ann (-----) circa 1755 at Accomack Co, VA.1 |
| Anecdote* | 4 July 1757 | Jacob Ayres first appears in Acc County records on 4 Jul 1757 when he leased a portion of his land to William Litchfield for a term of 20 years.3 |
| Heir - named as* | 29 January 1762 | Jacob was named as an heir on 29 January 1762 at Accomack Co, VA. He was shown as Jacob Ayres and received a legacy and was one of the executors along with Thomas Riley in the will of Finley McWilliams, who was evidently his great uncle, having been the brother of his grandmothers Sarah & Margaret MacWilliam.

| Death* | before 1 May 1782 | Jacob died before 1 May 1782 at Accomack Co, VA. It was on this date that his will was probated and his son George Ayres was named heir at law to the testator. The fact that he neither bought nor sold land, and that he expressly stated in his will that his heirs "shall not sell, lease or mortgage land devised" by him, which land he describes as "the plantation my father lived on" proves that he inherited and ancestral estate. By elimination, and the further proof in the descent of family lands, and the perpetuation of unusual family names, Jacob Ayres is shown to be a son of Francis Ayres 2nd and Tabitha his wife, having a son and daughter bearing these names, also a daughter Sarah, the name of his grandmother, and Edmund and Richard, names of uncle and great uncle..5 |
