Book The Blauvelt Family Genealogy

Download or read book The Blauvelt Family Genealogy written by Dorothy Ackerman Moos and published by . This book was released on 1987 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Blauvelt surname seems to have been derived from the coat-of-arms of Pieter Blaeuwvelt of Enkhuysen in Holland. The "Association of Blauvelt Descendants" feels confident that Gerrit Hendrickson (1620-1683/1684) was a direct descendant of Pieter, and rightfully entitled to the surname. Gerrit himself was baptized as Hendricksen and never used the surname of Blauvelt. He was a son of Hendrick Gerryts and wife Grietje, and he immigrated in 1637 from Holland to work in Rensselaerwick, a patroonship along the Hudson River. By 1646, Gerrit had settled in New Amsterdam, where he married twice and was a farmer. All of his children used Blauvelt as a surname. Des- cendants and relatives lived in New York, New Jersey, Wisconsin, California and elsewhere. Some descendants were Loyalists during the Revolutionary War, and shortly afterwards immigrated to Nova Scotia and elsewhere in Canada.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Integrating sophisticated demographic techniques with clearly written narrative, this pioneering book explores the complex social and economic life of a major colonial city. New York City was a vital part of the middle colonies and may hold the key to the origins of political democracy in America. Family histories, public records of births, marriages, and assessments, and records of business transactions and poll lists are among the rich sources Thomas J. Archdeacon uses to determine the impact of the English conquest on the city of New York. Among his concerns are the changing relationships between the Dutch and the English, the distribution of wealth and the role of commerce in the city, and the part played by ethnic and religious heritage in provincial politics.
