LONG ISLAND Colonid PATENTS LONG ISLAND Colonid PATENTS BY FREDERICK VAN WYCK BOSTON A. A. BEAUCHAMP I935 PREFACE LL the publications cited by the author in this A tract have been consulted in the Boston Public Library, the Harvard Law Library, and the library of the New England Historic Genealogical So- ciety, some in one of them and some in the others, and for the unfailing courtesy shown to him by all three of these libraries and for the favors and privi- leges freely extended to him by all of them while he was making these researches he expresses here his appreciation and gratitude. The first patent by the King to the Duke and the Duke's commission to Governor Nicolls have been reproduced from photostatic copies of these instru- ments as published by Brodhead. The comparing of the other quoted matter in Part I with the sources has been done without assistance, and while care has been exercised it is hoped that those interested in the subject will consult these sources direct. As is in effect said in the tract, it is mainly a collection of authorities thought to have a bearing on a certain legal question, but arguments have been avoided and no assertive position on the question is taken. -..+. $ On the subject of Seventeenth Century chirography, reference is here made to Oyster Bay Town Records, Volume I-1653-1690 . Compared, Annotated Cvl and Indexed By John Cox, Jr., New York, Tobias A. Wright, Printer and Publisher, 1916, " Introduction," at pages viii, ix. It is there said: "The most common contraction was the use of y for th, at the beginning of a word, with the re- mainder of the word raised, as ye for the . These . letters have not been raised in this copy. When c was substituted for ti, as in consideracon, a mark was used to indicate the sound. Writers generally did not double m in such words as common, but put a mark over the letter to indicate the omission of the second consonant. No attempt has been made to reproduce the superior marks and specially formed letters, ex- cept as here stated, as no increased clarity would result and the text would be confusing to the average reader. The capitalization has been followed as closely as may well be done, rendering for the ancient capital F the nearest printable approximation, ff . .7 7 In the present tract " the superior marks " have been in most cases omitted, as well as the punctuation marks under the raised letters. The use of y for th is more fully explained in the Oxford Dictionary, under "Y" and "Th." 49 Wall Street, New York City, January, 1935- CONTENTS PARTI CHAPTER PAGE I .

I907. NO. I ' THE VAN RENSSELAER FAMILY. BY W. W. SPOONER. the early Dutch colonial families the Van OF Rensselaers were the first to acquire a great landed estate in America under the "patroon" system; they were among the first, after the English conquest of New Netherland, to have their possessions erected into a "manor," antedating the Livingstons and Van Cortlandts in this particular; and they were the last to relinquish their ancient prescriptive rights and to part with their hereditary demesnes under the altered social and political conditions of modem times. So far as an aristocracy, in the strict understanding of the term, may be said to have existed under American institu- tions—and it is an undoubted historical fact that a quite formal aristocratic society obtained throughout the colonial period and for some time subsequently, especially in New York, — the Van Rensselaers represented alike its highest attained privileges, its most elevated organization, and its most dignified expression. They were, in the first place, nobles in the old country, which cannot be said of any of the other manorial families of New York, although several of these claimed gentle descent.

  • The Lees of Quethiock Cornwall Their Family History from Ancient Times
    THE LEES OF QUETHIOCK CORNWALL THEIR FAMILY HISTORY FROM ANCIENT TIMES "Brave men have lived before Agamemnon, lots of them. But on all of them - eternal night lies heavy, for they left no records behind. (`ODES` Horace 65-8BC) This is the story of those who did This is the story of my ancestors, the Lee family, who have left records behind and from which the line can be traced from Alexander and Thomas born 1994 and 1990 respectively, back to John of Legh, alive in 1433, and Richard de Leye, alive in 1327. John and Richard lived at, and took their surname from Legh, a pre-Norman settlement in Cornwall recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086. Legh is situated in the present parish of Quethiock, some 5 miles west of the River Tamar and 5 miles east of Liskeard, just in the southeast corner of Cornwall. To uncover the history took ten and more years of research. So what stimulated me to commence? In 1986 I watched a television programme on early portraiture. It was explained that during the time of the Roman Empire (146BC-410AD) it was fashionable to have a statue carved of oneself together with ones father and grandfather. To illustrate this a statue from the 1st century AD was shown; I was astounded to note that it bore a likeness to my family and in particular to my brother, David Henry Lee. I immediately commented on this to my wife, Brenda, who replied `No, it is more like you`. From that moment the question lay in my mind `I look like a Roman from 2000 years ago; I have the surname of Lee which is derived from a Saxon-German word meaning pasture; my father`s family were known to have come from Cornwall and so presumably I have West Welsh Celtic blood; my mother claimed her family came from Devon and I was born in Devonport on the borders of Devon and Cornwall; so who am I? Cornwall over the millenniums had been invaded by 6 or so groups of different people; Ancient British (7000BC), Celts (700BC-63AD), Danes (800AD), Romans (63-401AD), Saxons (447-1066AD), Normans (1066).

  • Nicolls/Esopus Peace Treaty of 1665
    An Agreement made between Richard Nicolls Esq., Governor and the Sachems and People called the Sopes Indyans. 7th day of October 1665 A Publication of the Ulster County Clerk’s Office Records Management Program—Archives Division 2015 Nicolls/Esopus Indian Treaty 1665 — A Special 350th Anniversary Commemorative Edition Publication of The Treaty between Governor Richard Nicolls and the Sachems and People called the Sopes Indyans made 7th October 1665. 2 — Ulster County Clerk’s Office 2015 INTRODUCTION hree-hundred and fifty years ago the Esopus natives and the TDutch and English settlers entered into a Treaty for peace between their peoples. This Treaty is significant because it brought to a close hostilities between the Esopus and the settlers that had begun back in 1659. Both parties promised to cease hostilities, to establish a course of justice and conduct trade with each other. In addition to the cessation of fighting, the Treaty proclaimed that all past injuries were forgotten and that the peace would be kept in perpetual memory. This Treaty was so important that it would be renewed 13 times, with the latest renewal dated 1745. What was life like? How did people manage? The best answer to these questions is found in the primary documents written in their own hand. Thanks to the due diligence and stewardship of the forty-four Ulster County Clerk’s before me, a number of very important primary documents from that period have survived. The Richard Nicolls/Esopus Indian Treaty of 1665 is one of them. The County of Ulster is required, not only to identify and preserve its primary documents of historical value, but also to make them available to the public.

  • English Colonization in the 19 Century
    English Colonization in the 19th Century Examples of Colonial disunity were not surprising – Reasons: English Crown awarded colonial charters to: 1. Merchants 2. Religious idealists – different types of colonists 3. Adventurers Decisions to Emigrate 1. Rapid Population growth (1580-1650) in England created competition for food and jobs 2. New World was the land of opportunity 3. Institute a purer form of worship 4. Escape poverty, debt, jail terms, bad marriages 5. Religious and political persecution in Spain and England Upon arriving the colonist brought ideas and subcultures of which some were changed by the American environment. The New England colonies, the Middle Colonies, and the Southern Colonies all were distinct in various ways A. Economy B. Religion The Chesapeake: Dreams of Wealth Post Roanoke, New World interest lessened English interest reappeared with English rivalry with Spain Jamestown Colonization was very costly Solution – Joint Stock Company, large amounts of cash available with a stock investment plan, with hopes of high cash returns. 1st charter – London Company – John Smith 30 miles up the James River Problem – wealth was the motivation, not permanent settlement. Wealth rather than farming (planting corn) Captain John Smith – Prevented a Roanoke repeat A. Brought order and prevented anarchy B. Traded with Native American tribes for food C.

  • Dutch Trading Networks in Early North America, 1624-1750
    COUNTRIES WITH BORDERS - MARKETS WITH OPPORTUNITIES: DUTCH TRADING NETWORKS IN EARLY NORTH AMERICA, 1624-1750 A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Kimberly Ronda Todt August 2012 © 2012 Kimberly Ronda Todt ii COUNTRIES WITH BORDERS – MARKETS WITH OPPORTUNITIES: DUTCH TRADING NETWORKS IN EARLY NORTH AMERICA, 1624-1750 Kimberly Ronda Todt, Ph. D. Cornell University 2012 Examining the Dutch in early America only through the prism of New Netherland is too limiting. The historiography inevitably follows a trajectory that leads to English takeover. This work explores how Dutch merchants fostered and nurtured trade with early American colonies at all levels and stages – from ship owners to supercargos to financiers – and over the varied geographical and political terrains in which early American commodities were grown, hunted, harvested, and traded. Chapters are organized geographically and chronologically and survey how Dutch trading networks played out in each of early America’s three major regions – New England, the Middle Colonies, and the Chesapeake and later the Lower South from 1624 through 1750. Chronicling Dutch trade also serves to emphasize that participants in early America were rooted in global – as well as in local, regional, and imperial – landscapes. Accordingly, while each of the chapters of this work is regional, they are also integrated into something larger. In the end, this is a study that thinks across the Atlantic world yet explores various commodities or individual merchants to understand markets and networks. This narrative also demonstrates how profoundly Dutch capital, merchants, and iii goods affected early America.
