1. FHL book "The Cossart Family," by Joseph A. Cossairt, 1936, p. 50:
"COSSART, COSART, COSSAIRT, CASSAIRT, COSSAART, COESART, COSAT, COSSATT, KOSSART, COZAT, COZATT, CASSAT, CASSATT, COZART, ETC.
151. Jacob Cossart, son , of David Cossart (9) baptised at the Dutch Church January 28, 1702, named for his grandfather Jacques Cossart (3).
He seemed to have married at about the age of 21 to Wilhelmina Kinney or Kenne. The fact that her family name does not appear on the Raritan church records but does appear on the Harlingen church records and the further fact that she had one of her children baptised at the Harlingen Church indicates that her people lived over in Montgomery Township in the vicinity of Harlingen. David Cossart's (9) will was made on June 10, 1736 and in this will be made provisions for the three children of his son Jacob, then deceased. While the Raritan church records show that Jacob had a son Jacob baptised at that church November 14, 1736 indicating that Jacob must have died either from accident or after a brief illness shortly prior to the time his father's will was drawn and that his fourth child, a posthumous child, was born after his death. Nothing further is known of his widow or children. She may have remarried and taken the children to some other locality. Note: See article under Anthony Cossart, son of Anthony (10).
