Pane-Joyce Genealogy

A Jonathan and Catharina (but probably not these since they weren’t married yet) were witnesses at the 1777 baptism in Churchtown of Catharina, daughter of Johannes Treber & Geschiel; also the 1777 baptism of Barend, son of Fredrik and Lisabeth Weer. Since there was another couple Jonathan and Catharina Rees of about the same time, special care must be taken to clarify the family members.
Jonathan and Catharina, perhaps these, were witnesses at the 1783 baptism of Margaretha, daughter of Thomas Kerder & Eva, Athens Lutheran Church.
On 1 Nov 1780 Jonathan married Catherine Hoeper in Claverack Reformed Church.300 “Jonathan Rees to Caty Hoeper”.
Was Catherine the daughter or granddaughter of a “David Hooper” who was a freeholder in the north part of Livingston Manor in 1720.109
Catharine, nicknamed Katy, had various spellings for her last name: Hupper, Hoeper, Huber, Hooper, even, apparently, Cooper.
On the same day (23 Oct 1796 in Claverack) that Jonathan and Caty’s daughter Sally was baptized (with witnesses Jonathan & Helletje Herdick), Jan Herdick and Maria Hopper were witnesses at the baptism of Maria, dau. of Hendrick Schermerhoorn & Caty Hardick. What was the relationship, if any?
