Joseph, brother of Pieter, married Anna, daughter of Jacobus Peek of the Second flat on the south side of the river. In 1755 he was living in "Maquaasland."

These brothers were stepsons of Benjamin Roberts, who by will made June 28, 1706, devised his farm at Maalwyck to his wife Maria, and in case of her remarriage, to his stepsons, Pieter and Joseph Clement.

In 1710 Pieter sold his half to Cornelis Vielè, together with half Benten island for 445 pounds, and in 1712 Joseph sold the other half to Carel Hansen Toll for 400 pounds. (103-1)
