Rachel Clausse was born about 1619 or thereabouts to Pierre Clausse, a stone mason at Sedan, and Jeanne Famelart. Her paternal grandparents were Rogier Clausse, a stone mason at Daigny near Sedan, and Marguerite Grenet. Her maternal grandfather was George Famelart, a native of Chémery-sur-Bar not far from Sedan, also a stone mason. Her known family were all French Protestants and celebrated births and marriages at the Sedan Temple. There was a castle or fort at Sedan which required stone masons for building and repairs. Rachel had brothers Elie, Jean, and Abraham, and sisters Ester and Judit. There is no surviving birth or baptism record for Rachel; nor is there a surviving death record or record of her burial place. Rachel married Pierre Cresson, another Sedan native, in 1639 and their first child Jacques, baptized at Sedan in 1640, was the only one of their known children to be baptized there. Soon after the Cresson family moved to Sluis in Flanders as Sedan lost its independence. They soon moved again to Rÿswÿck and then Delft in Holland. At each place a child was baptized: Christina, Susannah, Estienne, the two Pierres, and Rachel. After the seventh child the family moved to the Dutch West India Company's colony at New Amstel (now New Castle, Delaware) on the Delaware River in 1657. Pierre soon received an invitation to work for the Company's director at New Amsterdam and in 1658 the family took up residence in Nieuw Haarlem. They remained in Harlem until 1677 or 1678 and then sold land there and moved to a grant of land on Staten Island situated on the Fresh Kill waterway between Manhattan and Staten Island. There Rachel and Pierre died sometime after 1680. Different dates are given for the death dates of Rachel and Pierre, but there does not seem to be any documentary source for either person's death date. Anne H. Cresson wrote that Rachel was on a 1690 census of Staten Island, but she does not cite any source for that record.
