  • Peter Minuit Story
    ONE A NEW LAND By ten and twenties the settlers came in 1624 and 1625, pitching on the inhuman waves in frightfully vulnerable vessels. Two months it took to follow in the wake of the English explorer Henry Hudson, three if the winds failed. Hudson had sailed, in 1609, on behalf of the Dutch East India Company, so the Dutch claimed the territory and named their colony New Netherland. The Dutch provinces were the melting pot of Europe, and the settlers were themselves a mix of peoples. The colony stretched across a huge swath of North America, covering all or part of five future states: New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Pennsylvania and Delaware. The ships arrived at what would later be New York Harbor. “We were much gratified on arriving in this country,” one settler wrote home. “Here we found beautiful rivers, bubbling fountains flowing down into the valleys ...” TWO PETER MINUIT He had grown up speaking German, but his ancestry was French, so his name was pronounced in the French way - Min-wee. He had no military training, but he was an individualistic, take-charge sort who would alter the course of history by sheer force of will. Peter Minuit married and settled in the Dutch city of Utrecht, but then, learning of a venture to the New World, went to Amsterdam in 1624 and asked the West India Company for a posting to New Netherland. He shipped out with one of the first groups of settlers. The director must have been impressed by his wits and energy, for the company ordered the colony’s leader, Willem Verhulst, that “He shall have Peter Minuyt ..

Analyzing Multiple Sources New Netherlands in 1644 By Rev. Isaac Jogues, S.J. On this island of Manhate and in its environs there may well be four or five hundred men of different sects and nations; the Director General (Governor) told me that there were persons there of eighteen different languages; they are scattered here and there on the river, above and below as the beauty and convenience of the spot invited each to settle. The river, which is very straight and runs due north and south, is at least a league broad before the fort. Ships lie at anchor in a bay which forms the other side of the island and can be defended from the fort. Shortly before I arrived there three large vessels of 300 tons each had come to load wheat and furs. When any one comes to settle in the country, they lend him horses, cows &c, they give him provisions, all which he repays as soon as he is at ease, and as to the land he pays in to the West India Company after ten years the tenth of the produce which he reaps.

  • Chronology of Colonial Swedes on the Delaware 1638-1713 by Dr
    Chronology of Colonial Swedes on the Delaware 1638-1713 by Dr. Peter Stebbins Craig Fellow, American Society of Genealogists Fellow, Genealogical Society of Pennsylvania Historian, Swedish Colonial Society originally published in Swedish Colonial News, Volume 2, Number 5 (Fall 2001) Although it is commonly known that the Swedes were the first white settlers to successfully colonize the Delaware Valley in 1638, many historians overlook the continuing presence of the Delaware Swedes throughout the colonial period. Some highlights covering the first 75 years (1638-1713) are shown below: New Sweden Era, 1638-1655 1638 - After a 4-month voyage from Gothenburg, Kalmar Nyckel arrives in the Delaware in March. Captain Peter Minuit purchases land on west bank from the Schuylkill River to Bombay Hook, builds Fort Christina at present Wilmington and leaves 24 men, under the command of Lt. Måns Kling, to man the fort and trade with Indians. Kalmar Nyckel returns safely to Sweden, but Minuit dies on return trip in a hurricane in the Caribbean. 1639 - Fogel Grip, which accompanied Kalmal Nyckel, brings a 25th man from St. Kitts, a slave from Angola known as Anthony Swartz. 1640 - Kalmar Nyckel, on its second voyage, brings the first families to New Sweden, including those of Sven Gunnarsson and Lars Svensson. Other new settlers include Peter Rambo, Anders Bonde, Måns Andersson, Johan Schaggen, Anders Dalbo and Dr. Timen Stiddem. Lt. Peter Hollander Ridder, who succeeds Kling as new commanding officer, purchases more land from Indians between Schuylkill and the Falls of the Delaware. 1641 - Kalmar Nyckel, joined by the Charitas, brings 64 men to New Sweden, including the families of Måns Lom, Olof Stille, Christopher Rettel, Hans Månsson, Olof Thorsson and Eskil Larsson.
