  Without the evidence which has been gathered in Holland of the genealogy of the family, the name would imply a relationship to the soldier and warrior, but it is singular, if this account is correct, that the name of Peter does not appear in the family until the fourth generation, when it is well known that it was the custom of the Netherlanders to perpetuate the names of their ancestors, which custom prevails among many of their descendants in this country to this day. These Schencks, according to tradition, owned vessels which traded with the Netherlands, which often,
