    Notes:

    "van Ginkel" seems to have come from a Dutch general in the sevice of William of Orange of England. Ginkel was left in command in Ireland after the Battle of Boyne (July 1, 1690. Ginkel's conquest of Ireland was completed with the signing of the Treaty of LImreick on Oct. 3, 1691. He was then created Earl of Athlone and Baron Aughrim on Mr. 4, 1692. Some of the Presbysterian Dutch (second and third generation in Ireland) may have fled to Scotland fromt time to time, seeking work, thus earning the namd Scotch Irish. These comprised a lot of the early immigrants from Ireland to Pennsylvania. Kilwaughter Castle was where Godard van Ginkel was living for a time during his stay in Ireland . Its remains are there to this day. A child that he fathered ( C1680-00)was called "Ginkel's" as a surname . This was soon taken as Gingles by locals. The male line kept this name till the present. In Athlone there is a castle museum in which his exploits are catalogued. Across the way is a nightclub called "Ginkels"! He later returned to Holland and bult a castle called "Midachten" still occupied by his family. His early years were spent in Amarongen castle , and it was in his youth that he became friends with William who took him to britain to help with his new "job" Original letters can be examined at the historical document office in Belfast. He returned to The Netherlands later in life returning all his seazed land to the Irish from whence it came. As a military commander he had the reputation of losing remarkably few men in battle. Similar to Macarthur and Montgomery I believe.
