He met and married Heyltien Aetsse, had three children, and sailed back to Holland, when the Portuguese invaded Recife. The family sailed from Holland and landed in New York (New Amsterdam)in August, 1654. All Probasco's are descendants of Jurriaen Probasco, also known as George. You will find the history of the Probasco lineage at the web site of Nora Probasco. It is truly remarkable.
