Ruloff De Kype [5] was born in 1510 in Alencon, Bretagne, France. General Notes: Ruloff De Kype was a warm adherent of the Guises, and took a prominent part in the Civil War between the Catholics and the Protestants. On the triumph of the Protestants, which occurred soon after the general massacre of the inhabitants of Vassey in Champagne, in 1562, his Chateau was burned and he fled from his home at Alancon in Bretagne to Holland with his three sons, where they lived for several years under an assumed name. In 1569, with his son Henri, he returned to France, joined the army of the Duke of Anjou, and on the 13th of March 1569 fell in the battle fought on the banks of La Charante, near Jarnac. By the care of his son, Jean Baptiste, who was a priest, he was buried in a small Church near Jarnac. The Church and grave marker were destroyed during the French Revolution.

Hendrick Kype [3] (Ruloff 2, Ruloff 1) was born in 1576 in Amsterdam, Netherlands. General Notes: On arriving at manhood he took an active part in the "Company of Foreign Countries", an association formed for the purpose of obtaining access to the Indies. In 1609, they employed Henry Hudson to sail westward in the Half Moon. Sept. 11, 1609 Henry Hudson discovered the mouth of the river that would bear his name. Kype was one of the active means that led to the settlement of New York by the Dutch. He came to New Amsterdam in 1635 with his wife and family. He could not become accustomed to the ways of the New World so returned to the old country with his wife where they ended their days. Sources: History of The Kip Family In America, by Frederic E.

Hendrick Hendricksen Kip [1] was born in 1600 in Niewenhuys, Groningen, Netherlands, died Sep14 1685 in New York, NY, and was buried on Sep 16, 1685 in New York, NY. 3 Produced by Legacy on Aug 24, 2008 Descendants of Ruloff De Kype Fourth Generation (Great-Grandchildren) 6. Hendrick Hendricksen Kip [1] (Hendrick 3, Ruloff 2, Ruloff 1) was born in 1600 in Niewenhuys, Groningen, Netherlands, died Sep14 1685 in New York, NY, and was buried on Sep 16, 1685 in New York, NY. General Notes: In 1624 his trade was tailor. He was living in Amsterdam, Holland before 1636. He came to America about 1637 with his wife and five children, as on the map of New Netherlands of 1639 he is recorded as owning one of the Plantations. In 1647 he was chosen as one of the first Board of "Nine Men" to act as Governing Tribunal for New Amsterdam. Apparently he was satirically called "Hendrick Kip of the haughty lip" because he was strong and fearless. He also held office again in 1649 and 1650. He was appointed a Grand Schepen on Feb. 2, 1656, and on April 11, 1657 he was admitted to the Rights of a Great Burgher. Thus he took an important part in the government of New Amsterdam. After New Amsterdam was surrendered, he took the Oath of Allegiance to the English in October 1664. His will (found in the Kip Family papers, NYPL) apparently was never officially recorded. It was drawn by notary Willem Bogardus. Since both will and accounting cite the notary, it seems likely that Bogardus, who was city treasurer 1680-85 and later postmaster of New York province, entrusted the papers to Hendrick's son Jacob, especially since Jacob, who served five terms as city schepen, aided in administering the estate. His 7800 guilder estate was a substantial one for that time period. Will dated Feb. 2, 1671; Codicil dated Aug. 4, 1680; Estate accounting March 8, 1686. SONS: Isaac Kip's descendants settled in Rhinebeck,NY. Jacob Kip's descendants settled in Kip's Bay, NY, and Westchester Co., N.Y. Hendrick Kip settled at New Amstel on the Delaware River and then at Midout (Flatbush), Long Island. Sources: History of The Kip Family In America, by Frederic E. Kip and Margarita L. Hawley, 1928.
