  • Louisa Wood Ruby
    CHAPTER ONE DUTCH ART AND THE HUDSON VALLEY PATROON PAINTERS Louisa Wood Ruby One of the earliest "schools" of American painting, the Hudson Valley patroon painters, has often been considered to have derived from seventeenth-century English portraiture. Portraits of English aristo- crats appealed to Dutch patroons as displays of the kind of social status they aspired to in their new country. British mezzotints after original paintings by Sir Godfrey Kneller and others provided the patroon painters with readily available models on which to base their portraits of wealthy Dutch Americans. Unfortunately, this convincing analysis vastly underestimates the influence of Dutch art and taste on the development of these paintings. Frequently overlooked in the discussion of the appeal of British portraiture to Dutch patroons is the fact that English portraiture of the seventeenth century was, in fact, a direct descendant of the Netherlandish portrait tradition. Kneller, the main source for the mez- zotints that flooded New York, was trained in Amsterdam. Sir Peter Lely was born in Holland, and of course Sir Anthony Van Dyck was from Antwerp. Wealthy Dutch families in New York would have been aware of the Netherlandish tradition through works of art they brought with them from their homeland. Indeed, the first paintings produced in New Amsterdam and early New York were essentially Dutch, since no other tradition existed here at the time. When British mezzotints finally arrived in 17 10, they did indeed appeal to the patroon families, most likely because they were works grounded in the Dutch tradition, then overlaid with elements of British culture and style.

    CHRONOLOGY AND ANCESTRY OF CHAUNCEY M. DEPEW WITH FIFTY-FOUR OTHER AFFILIATED FAMILIES OF NEW YORK, NEW JERSEY AND NEW ENGLAND AN APPENDIX ON THE HEGEMAN ANCESTRY WITH TWENTY-FIVE OTHER AFFILIATED FAMILIES COMPILED BY WILLIAM A. EARDELEY, M.A. NEW YORK 1918 C.0PYJUGHT. 1918 BY CHAUNCEY M.• DEPEW i-'O"l.CHAUNC!::Y M.D!::PE:W .:.- - .... :: AGE: o::- 63 PREFACE THE desire of an individual to trace his or her ancestry and to per­ petuate, in print, the salient facts in the lives of these same ancestors, is commendable to the last degree. Hence this book of Records with the main authorities for the facts herein contained. The 1907 Ogden Family Genealogy says "There is something peculiarly gratifying to the average American citizen to be able to trace his lineage to the primal days of colonial life, and especially to a worthy, virtuous and honored ancestor . the undying satisfaction in the knowledge that one is heir to strong and enduring ancestral character: in the fact of being able to point back to him who first came to the New World. There is much fascination in the tracing back of ancestral lines, in spite of the many discouragements and the tediousness of the work." The realization that one's ancestors were patriotic citizens. who fought for the independence of this Great American Republic, should be a strong incentive for the descendants to emulate such sterling deeds. The mingling of the blood of the fine French Huguenot Families of Depew and See; of the Dutch Families of Cranckheyt and Siboutsen and Van Lent and Wiltsie and Van Boerum and Storm and Van Wert; of the English Families of Mitchell and Minot and Sherman and Prescott and Ogden and Root and Curtiss and Wellington and Winship and Wilder and Willard; with the touch of the Irish in the Johnston Family-has given us one of our grandest men in the person of the Honorable Chauncey Mitchell Depew.

  • The Military Tract (Compiled by Walter Gable, Seneca County Historian)
    Chapter Seven – The Military Tract (Compiled by Walter Gable, Seneca County Historian) It is very difficult to talk about parcels of property in Seneca County without coming across a reference to some Military Lot number. That is because most of the county was originally the western-most portion of the New York Military Tract. This article provides detailed information about the nature of the Military Tract in general and specifically those in what is today Seneca County. The Nature of the Military Tract in General On September 16, 1776, the recently organized Congress of the United States met and considered the report of the Board of War. The Revolutionary War was now a definite part of the life of the new nation and more men were needed if the war was to be won. Each state was asked to furnish its quota of men according to its population. Delaware and Georgia, with the least, were to provide one battalion each, New Jersey and New York, four, and Massachusetts (which then included what is now Maine) and Virginia, having the most people, were to furnish enough men for 15 battalions. Congress realized that men would not be willing to leave their homes and bear the hardship of war unless they and their families benefited by such an effort on their part. Granted they would be willing to serve in the militia for short tours, guarding the frontiers of their neighboring countryside, but they were being asked to sign up for the duration of the war or until they might be discharged by Congress.

Each year our students and staff work tirelessly to reach new heights. We believe the Annual Report reflects this work. As we continue to hear about mandates and changes to mandates, our Croton staff remains committed to our mission and vision. We have spent this last year reinforcing the concept of the “Croton Core.” The Croton Core embraces the tenets of the Common Core Learning Standards; however, it maintains our Croton focus on the District’s vision and mission. The Croton Core is possible because of our dedicated educators that reviewed the Common Core Learning Standards and continued to hold onto what makes a Croton education special and second to none. The Common Core Learning Standards have informed our instruction; not replaced our instruction.

    HISTORY OP THE Lent (van Lent) Family IN THE UNITED STATES GENEALOGICAL AND BIOGRAPHICAL From the Time they Left their Native Soil in Holland By NELSON BURTON LENT, NEWBURGH, N. Y. 1-cwburi:h Jounial Printing Howie and Book-Bindery, Cor, Smith and Third Streeta, •QOJ. PREFACE. ~ S time rolls on changes take place that we never dreamed of. To­ e-'"' day family history and tradition are the prevailing topics. Realiz- ing the family of Lents to be a large and patriotic one, the author and publisher of this work attempted to collect information on the Lent family. After about seven years or more of hard work, entailing a large expense collecting the necessary information-both biographical and genealogical-to warrant the publication of a work of this kind, it is now submitted to the reader for his criticism. The family is one of the most widely extended in the United States. This fact made the preparation of the work very difficult. This being the first Lent family history ever got­ ten up, made it a still greater undertaking, but " where there's a will there's a way." So after working diligently and energetically, tired often, dis­ couraged at times, we kept at it. Finally the information came in rapidly, and this gave us new vigor, and at last we came off victor. Several persons had undertaken to publish a book of the Lent Family, but after a time they gave it up. It was too hard an undertaking-the work covering the very long period of two hundred and si~y-five years.

GRAY, PRINTER, 95 and 91 Cliff Street, N. Y. INTRODUCTORY SKETCH. The Reformed Protestant Dutch Utiurcti in JNorth-America is the oldest offspring of the Reformed Church of Holland, which was one of the earliest children of Protestantism. That Church adopted its " Confession of Faith" in 1561, just one year before the first "Articles of Religion" were set forth as the standards of the Church of England under Queen Elizabeth. While the Protestants in the Netherlands were thus establishing the religious sentiments of John Calvin, they took good care to carry out his views in regard to the instruction of the people ; for, eminent as he was as a theologian, Calvin, beyond dis- pute, was also " the father of popular education, the inventor of the system of free schools." Accordingly, we find that neither the perils ; of war, nor the pursuit of gain, nor the excitement of political strife ever caused the Calvinistic Hollanders to neglect the duty of educating their offspring to enjoy that freedom for which their fathers had fought. Schools were everywhere provided, with good schoolmasters to instruct the children of all classes in the usual branches of education, as well as in the catechism and doctrines of the Church ; and the several con- sistories were bound " to use their best endeavors that a sufficient number of students in theology should be constantly maintained at the public expense." In 1574.
