Brünkendorf is an old village, first mentioned ca 1350. It has a current population of about 200 people and is now part of the city Marlow in Kreis (county) Nordvorpommern.
You may not find Brünkendorf on a map but Marlow is at map coordinates 54° 9' north and 12° 35' east. About 7km northwest is Brünkendorf and Rostock is about 35km further west.

Palatine Families of New York by Henry Z. Jones Jr.
When Matthys (Brunk,Bronck,Bronk,Brong) came over from Germany by way of England, in 1709, he was in a group of people called Palatines. They were to work off their passage and Gov. Hunter of NY, sent his group to West Camp, along the Hudson.
St. Paul's Lutheran Church, West Camp, (Ulster,NY), records give this marriage record.
11.15.1710 Mattheus Brunk (wid. blacksmith, of Andel, earldom of Veldenz) mar. Anna, (wid. of Sebastian Wormser, of Bubach, commune Lichtenberg, county of Zweybruck).
They had a son, (same Church records) Niclaus b. 28 Feb, bapt. 4 March 1713.
On 21 Jan 1715 Matheus Brunck drowned.
On 15 Nov 1715 Joh. Planck's wife died.
I'm sure he's my link to Mattheus, as the next generation that would follow Niclaus, I have Niclaus m. to Christina Schram and the first two sons are Matthys and Niclaus.
Another book is The Early Palatine Immigration by William Knittle. Much background and passenger lists, although I do not suspect they are complete.

"There was a Nicholas in the Revolutionary War. Perhaps it was our Nicholas-possibly his son Nicholas- or he may have been of the Jonas Bronk family, though I find no record of a Nicholas of the Jonas family of right age and no other record of Nicholas, son of Matthew except his baptism. The Veterans Administration, Washington, DC writes that they have no pension record of any Nicholas BRonk. As above Nicholas was born 1713 he presumably died before pension law was passed."
with a name sounding like THE Bronks must be a Bronk; 2. They wrote down names phonetically. He said that you could determine ethnicity to some extent by which church they attended. Germans-Lutheran/Dutch-Reformed.
Not sure if this is a connection.

began my research with the help of Howard McConville, of the Schenectady Historical Society. He was in fact a descendant of my Brunks. He helped lead me to see that there is a difference between Brunk and Bronk. The former being German and the latter being Dutch. There are various spellings, but Mathys, Nicholas, Jacob, etc. are Brunks and German, orginiating in a village called Andel, on the Moselle River in Germany. All the church records back to Andel are Brunk. I am descended from Jacob and Hester Hurst Brunk's son Henry, who moved to Iowa in the 1860's and then Nebraska; he left there for Washington state in 1903, dying in Toledo, WA in 1904. Please reply.

I am searching for the ancestors and origins of William WELLS born 1759, joined the Dutch Reformed Church of Mayfield in 1800 and lived the remainder of his life in that town. My best guess is that he came from Conn. near Hartford to Mayfield around 1790. The Gloversville museum has a map that shows landowners in that area circa 1840 and on it there is William living next door to Abraham WELLS on the Northwest side of town not far from Riceville. I do not know where he is buried. He married Catherine BRONK and had several children including my great-great-great grandfather Peter WELLS.
