No! No! No!The LDS site is very much incorrect - never trust anything you see there without solid supporting sources.
Reposting from my prior posting on this topic:You'll note that the daughter of Jan Broersen is believed to have married the son of Jan Gerritsen!
Here's what church baptismal records support:
Children of Jan Broersen & Heyltje Jacobs:
Gaerleff baptized 26 Feb 1661 (sometimes referred to as Gerret Janse Decker?) Spouse thought to be Magdalena Willemsz Schutt.
Grietje baptized 31 Aug 1664 (sometimes known as Margriet Janz Decker?) Spouse thought to be Gerret Janz Decker, son of Jan Gerritsen Decker.
Maddelen baptized 3 Oct 1666 (sometimes known as Magdalene Decker?) Spouse thought to be Johannes Westbroek.
Have also seen various persons listing these children & spouses, but have not confirmed: Jacob Janse Decker (b. abt. 1654, married Belitje Janse Cortright); Broer Jansen Decker (b. abt. 1660, married Cornelia Tappen); Cornelis Jansen Decker b. abt. 1670, married Elsje Ten Broeck); Tietje Decker b. bef. 1671, married Jan Gerritsen Van Campen).

Children of Jan Gerritzen & Grietjen Hendricks Westercamp:
Gerret baptized 14 Feb 1664. Spouse thought to be Margriet Janz Decker, daughter of Jan Broersen; also thought to have married Christina Pruyer?
Hendrick baptized 9 Oct 1667. Spouse thought to be Antje Grietje Quick
Jacob baptized 22 May 1671. Spouse thought to be Annetje Hendrick Cortright
Have also seen people listing these children & spouses, but have not confirmed:
Hermanus Decker (b. abt. 1673, married Rachel DeLaMontagne); Johannes Decker (b. 1675, married Heyltje Quick)
I have also seen all of Jan Gerritsen's children listed as children of Jan Broersen, along with his actual children. Someone has made a real mess of these two families!
