On December 11th, of the same year, William Welch obtained a warrant for one thousand acres of land on the north side of White Clay Creek.... In February, 1666, Colonel Richard Nichols granted to Sergeant Thomas Wollaston, John Ogle, John Hendrick and Harman Jansen a warrant for a tract of land containing three hundred acres lying "in White Clay Kill, near unto Christiana Kill, bounded on the east by land of Hans Boner, on the south by James Crawford's land, on the West by Fresh or Rum Creek (now Mill Creek), and on the north by the waters at the head of Bread and Cheese Island." John Ogle resided at New Castle and vicinity until his death, in 1684.]

10709 On the page following the View of the Marckveldt and ‘T Water is a Plan of New Amsterdam as it existed from about 1644-1657. This is a reproduction of a plan of New Amsterdam, compiled from the Dutch and English records, by J. H. I lines in his remarkable volume, New Amsterdam and Its People. The plot is the lower tip of Manhattan Island, which today is the heart of the financial and business district of the largest city in the world, New York City. In order that the site of New Amsterdam as shown on this early map may be made more clear, in its relation to the position of the modern New York City, the location of the present Wall St., Exchange Place, New St., and Broad St. are shown in dotted lines. The location of these modern streets in the New York financial district was furnished by Mr. John R. Goubeaud, of the New York City Engineering Department.

In addition to the references, listed by Mr. Innes on his original plan, the compiler has added the location of four homes of ancestors of the Staten Island-Pennsylvania group of the Corsons in America. The buildings located are :

No. 1. The house of Cors Pietersen and his wife, Tryntje Hendricks;

No. 2. The house of Fredrick Lubbertsen and his first wife, Styntje Hendrickse, the maternal grandparents of Maritje van der Grift, who became the wife of Cors Pietersen’s eldest son, Capt. Cornelis Corssen ;

No. 3. The house of Cornelis Volkertsen and Maria Du Trieux, whose granddaughter, Blandina Viele, married Benjamin Corssen, a son of Captain Cornelis Corssen of Staten Island ;

No. 4. The house of Joannes Nevius, about 1655. The great granddaughter of Joannes Nevius, Margarietje Neefies (Nevius) married Cornelis Corsen, of Bucks County, Pa., a grandson of Capt. Cornelis Corssen.

The building (No. 2) on the Northwest corner of Maiden Lane and Pearl St., was sold about 1657, by Fredrick Lubbertsen, to Maria Du Trieux and her second husband, Jan Peeck. The build¬ ing designated No. 3, which seems to have been located at the inter¬ section of the modern Exchange Place and Broadway, was probably the first house built on Broadway south of Wall St. after 1644, at which time a lease on this land to Jan Damen expired. Here in this building, Cornelis Volkertsen and Maria Du Trieux kept a tavern, probably until the death of Volkertsen, before 1650. Maria Du Trieux and her second husband, Jan Peeck, seem to have occupied the Lubbertsen house (No. 2) until about 1660, when they sold it to Cornelis Clopper. At this time they seem to have acquired the eastern half of the Lubbertsen Lot, which had been sold previously to Albert Cornelissen, and to have erected here a building used as a tavern, which remained in their possession for many years. Mr. Innes on page 302 of his history has the following: “This house, which must have occupied the site, or a part of the site of the present building, No. 207 Pearl Street, was just sufficiently removed from the observation of the town authorities to afford a convenient drinking house for Indian visitors to New Amsterdam, and is supposed to have been the seat of the illicit liquor traffic for which Mary Peeck was banished from Manhattan Island in 1664.’’ This incident is related in a subsequent chapter.

You will probably agree with the compiler, that it is a privilege, enjoyed by few American families, to be able, almost three hundred years after, to see, in a view of New Amsterdam, the house occupied by the progenitor, and to see located on a plan of this early settlement, the buildings in which at least five maternal ancestors of our family lived and raised their children.

10715 On the westernmost of them, called Kaskutenu, located in Flatlands, purchased of the Indians and patented by Gov. Van Twiller to Andries Hudden and Wolfert Gerretsen (Van Couwenhoven), on the i6th of June, 1636 (the same date as Van Curler's patent for flats), a plantation called " Achtervelt " was established, on which, prior to July 9, 1638, when an inventory was taken, they had a house set around with long round palisades, the house being 26 feet long, 22 feet wide, 40 feet deep, with the roof covered above and around with plank ; two lofts above one another, and a small chamber at their side } one barn, 40 feet long, 18 feet wide, and 24 feet deep ; and one bergh with five posts, 40 feet long.

10716 On their [the local Indians] account the people were compelled to live close together, as also to have stories on their houses provided with loop-holes. By their intercourse with the savages the Swedes became well acquainted with the Indian language, and there are still a few of the older ones who express themselves quite well in it. The savages stayed much with Olof Stille at Techoheraffi, ad were very fond of the old man; but they made a monster of his thick black beard, from which also they gave him a special name.

Olof or Olle Stille, millwright, of Techoheraffi, at the mouth of Olle Stille's Kill, now Ridley Creek, at the present borough of Eddystone, Pennsylvania, was a native of Roslagen, in the parish of Lanna, and Penningsby Court, in Sweden, and came over in 1641. His descendant the late Charles J. Stille was provost of the University of Pennsylvania, and president of the Historical Society of Pennsyvlania.

10718 Once sentenced to death in Sweden, Olof Stille ran a mill and became a chief justice here.
By Amy Grant

Born on the island of Solö, near Stockholm, Olof Stille was the son of Per, a supervisor of the Penningby estate. By 1627, Per, now retired, was granted land by the owners of Penningby on a nearby island called Humblö. Here Olof married and began his family.

Although he was on good terms with Erik Bielke, who inherited Penningby in 1629, Olof did not think well of Bielke’s wife, Lady Catarina Fleming. At the Norrtälje fair in 1636, Olof indiscreetly voiced his opinion of Fleming, who retaliated by prosecuting Olof for defamation and seized his property at Humblö. When Olof refused to leave the island, he was imprisoned.

After securing his freedom, Olof and his family resettled in Matsunda, where he was joined by one of his former servants named Anders. Claiming that Anders had broken a verbal agreement with the late Lord Bielke to be their servant, Fleming, now a widow, had Anders seized in 1638 and imprisoned at Penningby.

Olof breaks in … and frees his friend Anders

Hearing the news, Olof entered Penningby Castle by a secret door, broke the lock to the dungeon, and fled with Anders. After a warrant was issued for Olof’s arrest, he went to trial, was convicted of burglary, and sentenced to death by the sword. The appellate court, however, modified the sentence to a fine.

Three years later, in May 1641, when the Charitas departed for New Sweden, the passenger list included Olof, a mill-maker, his wife, and two of their children. In New Sweden, Olof settled as a freeman at a place called Techoherassi by the Indians, located near Ridley Creek. The Indians liked Olof very much, but they considered his heavy, black beard a monstrosity.

Setting up the first Swedish gristmill on Cobbs Creek

As the only known mill-maker in the colony, Olof was probably in charge of building the first Swedish gristmill on Mill (now Cobbs) Creek. But life under the rule of Governor Johan Printz was unpleasant. Olof and other freemen were placed under unfair restrictions. So Olof led the freemen in protest. They submitted a signed letter of grievances to Printz in 1753. Printz labeled this action mutiny and promptly left for Sweden. His replacement Governor Rising let the matter drop.

After the surrender of New Sweden, the Dutch governor, Petrus Stuyvesant, agreed to allow the Swedes and Finns living north of the Christina River to govern themselves. The first Swedish court, organized in 1656, had Olof as its chief justice.

During his eight years as chief justice of the Swedes’ court, there were frequent policy clashes between the Swedes and the Dutch. Olof proved himself to be an able defender of the Swedes’ position and usually prevailed.

Retiring as chief justice in 1664, Olof moved to Moyamensing (later south Philadelphia). Even in retirement, he was called upon to arbitrate disputes among the settlers. He died about 1684.
