Hello there.
Wow! That post was from 2003. I am surprised to hear from you!
I have since found out an enormous amount about my Etringer line. First and foremost, I am almost 100% certain that Charles and Nicholas Etringer (child of Baptist Charles and Margaretha Simon) are one in the same. So yes, they only had 3 children.
Grace's line descends to me. She only had 1 daughter, Grace (Margrata) Hackett, who had only 1 son, Richard Hartog, my grandfather, who passed away in 2001.
Mary Etringer O'Connell died fairly young. Cornelius (1 of her 4 children) and my grandfather were very close. They all moved down to Florida, where they eventually died.
Nicholas/Charles has 3 children that I know of, from 2 different marriages. Nice story there.
As far as Simmons or Simon for Margaretha's maiden name, Simon is the one listed on more vital documents, so that's what I am going with for now.
