     Denyse Teunissen Denyse, son of Denyse Nyssen and Femmetje Jans, was born at New Amsterdam, New York.1
     Denyse was baptized on 16 April 1654 at New Amsterdam, New York.1

     Denyse married Elizabeth Polhemus, daughter of Rev. Johannes Theodorus Polhemus and Catharine Van Werven, on 22 October 1682.1

     Denyse married Helena Cortelyou, daughter of Jacques Cortelyou, on 12 April 1685, at Kings, New York. The marriage record of Denyse and Helena is as follows (Flatbush Church Records, State Library, Albany): 'Dionys Teunisz, widower of Elizabeth Polhemus, residing at Midwoud (Flatbush), and Helena Cordeljau, widow of Klaas Rutgersz, residing at New Utrecht. Betrothed March 29, 1685. Married at New Utrecht, April 12, 1685.

Denyse Teunissen was a master carpenter. He bought land in Flatbush in 1687 and was a resident there when he took the oath of allegiance. His name appears on the Flatbush patent of 1685.

After his marriage to Helena, Denyse Teunissen removed to property which she owned in the Najack tract at the Narrows.

Denyse is said to have owned land also at Yellow Hook and on Staten Island. According to an unconfirmed statement, Denyse may have resided on Staten Island for a time and while there held the office of Justice of the Peace.

According to the census of Kings County, N. Y., about 1698, 'Denys Teunisse' had five children and was the owner of five slaves. (MS. Hist. of N. U., p. 885).2

The reason for the latter is that his descendants adopted 'Denyse' or 'Denise' as their surname.
