Notes |
- BIOGRAPHY: ...born (say ca. 1630?), came with his wife Antoinette
(Terrin) and their nine-year-old son Michael to Niew Amsterdam (now New
York City) in 1663, on the ship "Spotted Cow." Apparently they had
originated in the city of Courtrai, Belgium and as Huguenots had been
driven by the Spanish invaders to Mannheim, Germany.
BIOGRAPHY: They settled at Bedford, Long Island, (part of present-day
Brooklyn), and conducted a grist-mill there. In 1670 the father was a
trustee of the town and in 1671 an overseer of Brooklyn. After a brief
interlude at Harlem, the family moved to Kingston, Ulster County, where
he died in 1701.
BIOGRAPHY: The only known child of this couple was Michael.
