Thank you for all your responses.
To clarify: Johannes Bogert & Maria Bertholf were the parents of 11 children and I (& my uncle of course) are descended from 3 of them. (There was lot of intermarriage within the Jersey Dutch families). Angnietjen Bogert and Guilliam Bogert are indeed children of Johannes Bogert & Maria Bertholf, they were the 1st 2 children born to the marriage and Sarah Bogert was the 8th child, out of a total of 11 children. Using the ahnentafel numbers generated by the ancestor report for my uncle, Sarah Bogert was # 73 and her father Johannes double that number of #146. That fits very nicely. Coming up through another line in the family, Angnietjen Bogert was #171. Doubling that number for her father makes Johannes Bogert #342. And indeed in the report he is #342. I ticked the box to not have the report repeat duplicate lines so when you look at #342, you see the following: 342. JOHANNES BOGERT (Duplicate. See Person 146 on Page 77) Similarily, coming up another line in the family, Guilliam Bogert was #176. Again, doubling his number makes his father Johannes Bogert #352 and again, when you look at #352 you see the following: 352. JOHANNES BOGERT(Duplicate. See Person 146 on Page 77) Johannes Bogert is my uncle's 5th great-grandfather and his daughter Sarah Bogert, his 4th great-grandmother through one line. But, Angnietjen Bogert is his 5th great-grandmother and Guilliam Bogert is his 5th great-grandfather through their respective lines. I can understand why #342 was chosen for the anhnentafel number for Johannes, because it is the lowest number assigned to him. And I'm OK with the report indicating this is a duplicate line and to see # 146. What I don't understand is why the ahnentafel numbers for his other 2 children were not printed to the left of their names in the children's list. Is it because there is a generational issue here? I hope I've made what my question/issue/problem clear.
