Family history
Cronkite has ancestral roots to early settlers of New Amsterdam (now New York City) in 1620. Herck Siboutsen was a ship carpenter and married Wyntie Teunis in 1642 in New Amsterdam. Kipton Cronkite is the thirteenth generation from the immigrant Herck Siboutsen, the progenitor of the American Cronkhite family. Herck arrived in New Netherland before 1642 when he married Wyntie Teunis in the Reformed Dutch Church in Manhattan. Herck was from Langedyck, Friesland, the Netherlands.
