Notes for John Haring:
The very possible father of Pieter who is shown next, was a well known figure in the Hoorn Castle area of Holland. He was a famous soldier who fought the Spanish conquerors who were invading the Dutch countryside. He was said to have held off a large Spanish invading force by the Castle, with rapier in hand he stood on the pier, and killed many of the invaders. Afterwards he jumped into the water, and swam to his safety. He later was killed on board one of the Spanish ships which lay anchor in the bay, while trying to take down the Spanish flag. John is listed by most historians as either the father of Pieter, or an Uncle. At any rate he was related to this line.
