The history of the last name VanBlaricom

The surname VANBLARICOM is of Dutch origin, originating from the Low Countries region of northwestern Europe during the early modern period. It is believed to have derived from a combination of the prefix "van" meaning "from" and the toponym "Blaricum," a small town located in the province of North Holland, Netherlands.

In its earliest recorded form, the name was spelled "Van Blaricum," indicating that the initial bearers were likely residents of or originated from the town of Blaricum. This naming convention, combining the locational prefix "van" with a place name, was a common practice in the Netherlands during the medieval and early modern periods.

One of the earliest known references to the name VANBLARICOM can be found in the records of the Dutch Reformed Church in New Amsterdam (present-day New York City) in the mid-17th century. This suggests that individuals bearing this surname were among the early Dutch settlers in the New World.

Notable individuals with the surname VANBLARICOM include:

1. Cornelis van Blaricum (c. 1620-1692), a Dutch merchant and land owner who was among the first settlers of New Amsterdam.

2. Jan van Blaricum (1675-1745), a Dutch farmer and landowner in the colony of New Netherland (later New York).

3. Pieter van Blaricum (1710-1778), a Dutch-American soldier who fought in the French and Indian War.

4. Gerrit Van Blaricom (1758-1829), an American Revolutionary War soldier and early settler in upstate New York.

5. Jacob Van Blaricom (1785-1861), an American farmer and entrepreneur who established a successful business in the manufacturing of agricultural tools and implements in Kinderhook, New York.

Over time, variations in the spelling of the surname emerged, including VANBLARICOM, VAN BLARICOM, and VAN BLARICUM, among others. These variations likely stemmed from differences in pronunciation, transcription errors, or local dialects in the regions where the name was adopted.
