5. Pieter Wolphertse3 Van Kouwenhoven (Wolphert2, Gerritt1Couwenhoven) was born circa 1614 at Amersfoort, Netherlands. He married Hester Daws, daughter of Dawes Symon, on Dec 2, 1640 at Dutch Reformed Church, N. Y. C., New York County, NY. He married Aeltje Sibrants on Nov 22, 1665. He married Josynthe Thomas on May 19, 1699; Not historians agree that this marraige took place .

He was also known as Pieter Wolfertsen Van Kouwenhoven. He was also known as Pieter Kowenhoven. He was also known as Pieter Van Couwenhoven. He was (an unknown value) in 1688 at Brewer, Elizabethtown, NJ.

Children of Pieter Wolphertse3 Van Kouwenhoven and an unknown spouse were:

i. Pos Annetje4 I came across this item in the Fall 1997 Swedish Colonial News. It has a Couwenhoven reference which may be of interest to you.
Anders Stille's Wife by Dr. Peter S. Craig

Deeds by Anders Stille, eldest son of Olof Stille, identify his wife as Annetje, the Dutch form of Anna. In testimony before the New Castle court, Anders stated that he had been familiar with the houses and streets of the town since 1658. In the 1671 English census of the Delaware, Anders was shown as residing in New Castle and married to the owner of his house, named Anna Peterson by the English census taker.

Who was Anna or Annetje "Peterson"? This has long stumped me. However, in working up a pending article on this 1671 census for future publication, I was struck by the fact that Wharton's cenuss was a door-to-door survey of each resident. Comparing his census with records of early patents and deeds disclosed, beyond question, that the house occupied by Anders Stille and his wife was owned by a Dutch brewer by the name of Pieter Wolfertsen van Couwenhoven, who was in prison at Manhattan in 1671 because he had defaulted on a mortgage of property in Elizabethtown, NJ, to Governor Philip Carteret of New Jersey. Pieter was not himself named in the census, perhaps to hide his identity from creditors. But, whatever the reason, the father's financial difficulties now tell us that his daughter, known as Annetje Pieters van Couwenhoven to the Dutch, was the wife of Anders Stille, the Swede. The house in New Castle was sold in 1672 and the Stille family moved to Christiana Bridge to live next door to Anders Stille's niece Elisabeth Petersdotter (Yocum), wife of the English soldier, John Ogle.

3. Wolphert Gerretse2 Van Kouwenhoven (Gerritt1Couwenhoven) was born before May 1, 1579; when baptisms began in Amersfoort, Netherlands. He was born circa 1583 at Netherlands; he stated on October 8, 1638 that he was 54 years old. He was born circa 1584. He was born circa 1588 at Holland. Marriage banns for he and Neeltgen Jacobsdochter were published on Jan 9, 1605 at Amersfoort, Netherlands. He married Neeltgen Jacobsdochter, daughter of Jacob Peterss and Metgen Jacobsdr, on Jan 17, 1604/5 at Dutch Reformed Church, Amersfoort, Netherlands. He died between Mar 2, 1662 and Jun 24, 1662 at New Amerstoort, NY.

He was also known as Wolfert Gerretsz Van Kouwenhoven. He was also known as Wolfert Garretsen Van Couwenhoven. He was also known as Wolfert Gerritsz Van Couwenhoven. He was also known as Wulphert Gerritsz Van Couwenhoven. He was also known as Wulpher Gerritsz Van Couwenhoven. He was also known as Wulffer Geritsz Van Couwenhoven. He was also known as Wolfert Gerretsen Van Kouwenhoven. He was also known as Wolfert Gerretson Van Couwenhoven. Dec 15, 1611. The first reference to WOLFER GERRITSE when Wulphert Gerrits signed an agreement with his stylized A. According to the terms of that document, he agreed to assume the property and debts of the deceased parents of his wive Neeltgen Jacobsdr from the other heirs for 100 guilders. Her brother Herman Jacobsz also signed this document as well as her brother-in-law Willem Dircx who was married to Aeltgen Jacobs Petergen Petersdr, the underage daughter of her brother Peter Jacobsz, had already recieved 50 guilders

Apr 14, 1615. Wulphert Gerritsz and his wife Neeltgen Jacosdr sold a bleachcamp outside the Coppelpoort of Amersfoort to Hendrick Janss and his wife Hasgenb Thonis for 1,200 Carolus guilders, the occupation of Wolfert is not disclosed in this document on Mar 22, 1612. In the settlement of the estate of Wolfert's wife in Amersfoort, it was declared before the court that his profession at the time was baker on Aug 8, 1612 at Amersfoort, Netherlands. Wolphert took part in a curious agreement with Herman Zieboltz of Amsterdam, before Johan van Ingen an officer of the court of Utrechet. The name of the Amsterdammer suggests that he was a German or that he was of German descent. His name is also spelled Syboelt and Zyeboltz in those documents. According to a "donatiaq iner vivos" (gift to a living person) Ziebolz gave Wolphert two morgans of turf ground near Cologne in recognition of services rendered) but not payment for them). No monetary amount is mentioned for the services or the turf ground. In a second document of the same date issued by the same officer of the court of Utrecht, Ayeboliz made a debt owed by him by Henrick Adrianesz and Adriaen Adriansz over to Wulpher Gerrits baker and Cornelis Wynantsz inkeeper. This second document authorized Wulpher Gerritss and Cornelis Wynantsz to assume ownership of the two morgens of turfground mentioned in the first document. These documents create the impression thaqt Zieboltz was unable to pay Wolfert money that he owed him, that the Amsterdammer made over a debt on which he had not been able to collect, and that Wolfert may have agreed to these vague terms because he would otherwise not be able to retrieve anything from his business dealings with the Zieboltz

Between Feb, 1617 and Jul, 1617. Wulpher Gerritss baker appeared as a witness before Johan van Ingen officer of the court of Utrecht, in a case in which Willem Gerritz miller testified that Griet Maes was evading the city grain tax. The document does not specify that Wulpher and Willem were brothers, and if such were the case, it is likely that this would have been discussed in the document on May 16, 1616. Hendrick Janss and Haesgen Thonis made the last payment on the bleach camp which they had purchased from Wolfert Gerretse and Neeltge Jacbsdr, and the property was made over to them on Oct 28, 1616. He purchased from Aert van Schayck and his wife Anna Barents a house on the Langegraft in Amersfoort which lay between the house of the aforesaid Aert on the one side and that fo Henrickgen Barents widow of Aelbert Conrneiss on the other side, while the breadt of the house lay on the Lieverrouwestraet (Dear Lady Street). Wolphert was listed as a baker on Jan 30, 1617 at Langegraft, Amersfoort, Netherlands. Within a short time, Wolpeher placed three mortgages on this house. Perhaps the transactions with Zieboltz were unprofitable, and this was one of the causes of his need for money. On Feb 15, 1617, Wulpher Gerritss baker and his wife Neeltgen Jacobsdr borrowed 100 guilders from the Armen to Amersfoort on which he agreed to pay 6 guilders per year. On May 16, 1617, Wulpher Gerritss baker and his wife Neeltgen borrowed 200 guilders from Cornelis Baecx van der Tommen at a yearly interest of 12 guilders. On Jul 25, 1617, Wolphurt Gerritss baker and his wife Neelttgen Jacobsdr borrowed 250 guilders from Anna Goerts widow of Franck Frandkss at 15 guilders interest per year.

Jan 3, 1618. Wulphert Gerritsz and his wife Neeltgen Jacobs purchased a bleachcamp outside the Coppelpoort of Amersfoort with Hubert Lambertsz Moll and his wife Geertgen Cornisdochter as their partners. They borrowed 500 Carolus Guilders from Ghijsbert Cornelisz van Cuijlenburch, a citizen of the city of Utrecht, at an annual interest of 25 guilders and 20 stivers. In addition, Hubert Lamberts and his wife Geertje Cornelisdochter contracted a special mortgage for 400 Carolus guilders with the consent of Wulffert Gerritsz and his wife. On the north side of the property lay the River Eem, on the east the city moat and on the south and west the heirs of Gerrit van Speulde. This property came with two other mortgages: 200 guilders to the Poth and 600 guilders to Jo. Catharina van Morendael not yet conveyed to her. In a codicil, Wulpher Gerritsz baker and his wife Neeltgen Jacobs become party to the mortgage of Hubert Lambertsz Moll and his wife Geertge Cornelis for 400 guilders with interest on Ghijsbert Cornelisz van Culenborch with restriction that Wulpher would pay 150 guilders in the year 1618 and thereafter be free of obligation.

In the margin is a notation that Dirck van Cullenburch as heir of his father Gysbert van Culenburch acknowledged that the obligation on the mortgage was fully paid on Mar 5, 1628.

In the seventeenth century, a bleach camp was a capital intensive, seasonal business which required the labor of relatively many workers. Profits were meager because the buyers of the finished product and the suppliers of raw materials such as low were generally the same persons, and they acted to keep their costs and thus the profits of the bleachers love. There were three types of bleaching activities, and the skills and experience required of workers was generally so high that each bleachery specialized in but one sort of material: Yarn (garenblekerij), woven cloth (lijnwaadblekerij), or clothing (klerenblekerij). In all three cases, the material was first generally cooked in a lye solution and later spread out on green grass for many weeks in small fields surrounding the bleach house where it was kept damp. Later, it was cooked in a solution of wheat meal before being again spread on the field for a lengthy period, the entire process requiring about three months. The consequences of this long procedure was that only wealthy people were the customers of clothing bleachers because only they could afford to part with many items of clothing for so long a time.

No equipment of the bleach camp listed in the purchase document for Wolphert are given. So no indication of what type of bleachery Wolphert purchased. The bleach camp he sold in 1612 included a bleach table meaning it may have been a cloth bleach camp. Wulphert Gerritss baker and his wife Neeltge Jacobs contracted a mortgage with Coenraet Fransz, former mayor of the city of Amersfoort, for 100 guilders at an annual interest of 6 guilders, with the house of Wulphert on the Langegracht as security, which house lay between the house of Aert van Schayck and that of Hednrickgen Speldemaeckster.

It does not appear that Wolferts endeavor as bleacher met with great success, and this may have been caused by a general malaise in the weavers trade in Amersfoort in this period, which in turn lay on a lack of capital. Because Wolfert's work was dependent on this industry, he was limited as a businessman by the lack of success of the parent industry on Sep 17, 1618. Wolphert was appointed guardian over the five under aged children of Willem Gerritsz Couwenhoven.

From NYGBR

Wulffer Geridtz, bleacher residing by the Coppelpoort and Harman Willemsz citizen of Amersfoort as "bloetvoochden" (blood guardians) of the five sons of Willem Gerridsz Couwenhoven, namely Gerridt, Willem, Jan, Harmen, and Willem the Younger, none of whom had yet reached the age of majority, made an agreement with the mother of the children Neeltgen Willemsdr the widow of Willem Gerridtsz assisted by the owner of Cowenhoven the honorable Johan de Wijs.

This document indicates that Wolfert Gerritse had a brother Willem and that he was the tenant of the farm Couwenhoven which was owned by Johan de Wijs. This document indicates that Wolfert is connected to the Couwenhoven by Hoogland. It is at the same time possible that he was also linked to the Couwenhoven near Woudenberg because he was a son of Gerrit Willemsz van Couwenhoven, but documentation for this has not been discovered on Nov 5, 1622. Beermt van Munster made a deposition under oath before the lieutenant, the schout, and the schepenen Dam and Bronchorst at the request of the (police) officer. He stated that the previous Saturday afternoon he had caught a bucket of fish by the Coppelpoort bridge and had given half of it to Wulphert the bleacher according to an agreement which they had made, and that Beernt had caught a small number of fish thereafter. Wulpher and Harmen Teut then took these fish from Beernt, and they would not divide them with him. Wulpher took the net and tried to give it to his wife. Harman hit Beernt in the eye with a weight in the net, but by then, it was ripped. Beernt then went to the defense of his wife, and Wulpher drew his knife and threatened him without harming him. Dirck Gerritsz, stevedore, using well-chosen words, separated the people from each other. On April 1 1623, Dirch Gerrisz was heard at the request of the officer and made a similar deposition under oath on Mar 24, 1623. Hubert Moll and his wife Geertgen Cornelis sold a bleach camp to Wulpher Gerritsz bleacher and his wife in which they had been residing. This was situated in Amersfoort outside the Coppelpoort. The property description differs slightly from that given for the land transaction of 1618, but the mortgages are the same. It is likely that this is the same ground that Wulpher Gerritsz and Hubert Moll purchased then. On the date of purchase in 1623, Wulpher Gerritss sold this property to Monsieur Jacques Chiese Cuirass(ier) of the company of his Princely Excellency (Maurits?) and the purchaser assumed the mortgages.

This is the last document pertaining to Wolfert Gerritse that has been discovered in the archives of Amersfoort.

On Jun 11, 1623. He was a baker and then later a bleacher (bleaching laundry on a grassfield in the sun) before 1624. He immigrated between 1624 and 1625 to New Amsterdam, Kings Co. Long Island, NY. He and Neeltgen Jacobsdochter immigrated in Jun, 1625 to New Netherlands; or July 1625, with his wife and family on a ship of the Dutch West India Company which sailed in the expedition that was comprised of the ships Mackerel, Horse, Cow and Sheep. Wolfert returned to the Netherlands in 1629. He returned from the Netherlands on board "De Endracht" (the Unity) on May 24, 1630. There exists a letter from Kiiaen van Rensselaer to Wolfert which I have to get from sources. At this time Wolfert was in the Netherlands and the letter had to do with terminating Wolfert's contract with van Rensselaer and mentions that Wolfert's wife was unhappy living in New Netherlands. In the letter van Rensselaer states he would not want someone who was not happy working for him to remain in his employ under the circumstances. It was a friendly letter. According to the source there are several letters to Wolfert from Van Rensselaer. The letter above was read over the phone to me and I have yet to receive the exact copy and don't take short hand in 1632. He purchased "Keskateuw" located on Long Island from the Indians. Here was established the first known white settlement on Long Island. Wolphert called his "plantation" Achterveldt, shown on the Manatu Map of New Netherlands as farm No.36 near the Indian long house to the Kestachau tribe. Wolphert's house surrounded by palisades, was the focal pont of the village of New Amersfoort, later called Flatlands on Jun 30, 1636. He got "Small Civil Rights" on Apr 18, 1657. Wolfert Gerritsen Van Couwenhoven was named in a suit filed by Frans Jansen regarding a dispute over a contract in which Jansen was to buy land from Wofert. This was the first time the name Van Couwenhoven was mentioned in reference to Wolfert on Oct 20, 1661.

Children of Wolphert Gerretse2 Van Kouwenhoven and Neeltgen Jacobsdochter were as follows:

4. i. Gerret Wolfersen3, born circa 1610 at Amersfoort, Ultrecht, Netherlands; married Aeltje Cornelis Cool.
5. ii. Pieter Wolphertse, born circa 1614 at Amersfoort, Netherlands; married Hester Daws; married Aeltje Sibrants; married Josynthe Thomas.

He married Aeltje Cornelis Cool, daughter of Cornelius Lambertse Cool and (Unknown) (Unknown), circa 1635 at Flatlands, Long Island, NY. He died circa 1648 at Flatlands, Long Island, NY; Was probably after patent issued.

He was also known as Gerret Wolphertse Van Kouwenhoven. He was also known as Gerret Kouwenhoven. He was also known as Gerret Wolfertse Van Couwenhoven. He was also known as Gerret Wolfersen Couwenhoven. He was also known as Gerret Wolferse Van Couvenhoven. He was also known as Garret Wolfert Van Couwenhoven. 1639. Document (MDC:10).

"This day, date underwritten, before me Cornelis Van Tienhoven, secretary, in the presence of the undersigned witnesses, appeared Wolphert Gerritsen and Gerrit Wolphertsen, as guardians of Lambert Cornelissen Cool, and at the request of said Lambert Cool, have permitted him to go with his cattle to his brother-in-law Claes Jansen, in order to take up together some plantation or farm, and we the principals in the capacity aforesaid have consented hereto as we are bound in the place of father and mother to promote the above named Lambert Cool's interest and we cannot perceive that he will earn anything, much less prosper so long as he remains with his father, Cornelis Lambertsen. We have therefore considered it advisable to permit him to do something for himself in company aforesaid. Done at Fort Amsterdam the 22 of August 1639.

O'Callaghan's manuscript translation of the original in the New York Colonial MSS., Vol. I, p. 155, which was destroyed in the Capitol fire of March 29, 1911, Albany, October 4, 1933 ;signed A.J.F. van Laer." on Aug 22, 1639.

On March 11, 1647, Gerrit Wolphertson (Van Kouwenhoven) received a patent for "a certain piece of land, gouat the (Ma) Rechawieck, both the maize and woodland, on the marsh of the Gouwanus Kil, between the land of Jacob Stoffelsen and Frederick Lubbertsen, extending from the aforsaid marsh till into the woods, till to the land of said Frederick, till to the land of Andries Huddle, northeast by north, a little northerly, 148 rods: behind through the woods, till to the land of the aforesaid Jacob Stoffelsen, southeast by east 80 rods next to the land of Jacob Stoffelsen aforesaid, till to the aforsaid marsh, southwest a little westerly 165 rods, along the marsh to the place of beginning 60 rods, with an oblique outpoint: amounting in all to 29 morgens, 341 rods." Pattents, GG, 172

This plot evidently fronted on the main road leading from Flatbush, through the village of Breuckelen, which was located at this point, to "the Ferry," andis inchluded in lands marked as G. Martense's on Butt's map. Wolphertsen sold this property to Nicholas Jans, baker, of New York on Mar 11, 1647.

Children of Gerret Wolfersen3 Van Kouwenhoven and Aeltje Cornelis Cool were as follows:

i. Willem Gerretse4; born 1636 at Flatlands, Kings County, NY; although his father's purchase of land there was not dated until July 26, 1638; married Altie Jorise Brinckeroff, daughter of Joris Dericksen Brinckerhoff and Susannah Dubbels, Mar 21, 1660 at Flatlands, Long Island, NY; married Jannetije Pieterse Monfoort, daughter of Pieter Monfoort and Sarah De Plancken, Feb 12, 1665 at Kings, Flatlands, Brooklyn, NY; died between 1721 and 1723; died circa 1728; died 1728 at Monmouth, NJ.
He was also known as William Kouwenhoven. He was also known as William Gerretse Van Kouwenhoven. He was also known as William Gerretse Couwenhoven. On the earliest survivig list of members of the Dutch Reformed Church of Brooklyn, Sep 12, 1660, appear the names of Willem Gerritse Van Couwenhoven, his first wife, and her parents. He was Magistrate of Brooklyn 1661, 1662, and 1664. Willem Gerretse, on behalf of his first wiife, was one of the three heirs to the Brooklyn grant of his father-in-law, Joris Dicksen Brinckerhoff, and joined with the other heirs in selling this property on January 16, 1661. He was Signed a petition on May 25, 1662 in 1662 at schepen of Brooklyn, NY. He was deacon in 1663 at Dutch Reformed Church, Breukelen, Breukelen Province, NY. His name apears on the patent of Flatland, 1667 and he apparently removed there about that time. [He was and Elder of the Reformed Dutch churc at Flatlands in 1677. He signed the oath of allegiance at some time between Sep 26-30, 1687 being called a resident of "fflackland" and native born. The Records of th Brick Church, Marlborough, Monmouth Co., NJ, originally known as the Reformed Church of Freehold of the Navasink, begin in 1709 and show that in that year seven children of Willem Gerretse were already members of that congregation namely, Cornelis, Pieter,Albert, Jan, Jacob, Neeltje (Nelke), and Sara. In 1717, two other children appear as members, Annetje (Autie) and Jacomina (Jockamiinke). It was not until 1721 that the chuch shows as members "Willem Ger Kowvenhoven and his wife," and since the wife, Jannetje (Janneke), appears alone on the list in 1723, it seems possible that Willem Gerretse died between 1721 and 1723. He sold his plantation in Brooklyn to his son William and moved to Monmouth County, NJ in Nov , 1709. The existence of the original Bible of Willem Gerrete, with his own record of his marriages and the births of his children, states that he married "Altieu Yoris" in the year 1660. She was Altje, daughter of Joris Dickerson Brinckerhoff, and was the widow of Cornelis Mattys (Mathiews). Se died on June 3, 1663, and Willem Gerretse married secondly, on Febrary 12, 1665, "Jannetie Peters," who was Jannetje, daughter of Peter Monfort.

Jan Gerretse; He was born in 1639, perhaps at Flatlands, L.I., NY; married Gerardina de Sille, daughter of Nicasius de Sille and Cornelia Meulmans, May 18, 1670; married Gerardina de Sille, daughter of Nicasius de Sille and Cornelia Meulmans, May 19, 1670; died circa 1714 at Brooklyn, Kings, Long Island, NY; died circa 1724.

832 Cool had a son Lambert Cornelissen, living in 1642, and left surviving two daughters, the one Pietersje Cornelia, m. Claes Jansen van Enden, who came from Purmerent, a town about 12 miles from Amsterdam, and was sometimes called Claes Jansen van Purmerent, and also known as Jan Pottagie, anglice "soup Johnny" (see p. 42 of Winfield*s Hudson County Land Titles). Long before his death, he abandoned the name of "van Purmerent," and was known as "Kuyper," probably from his being a cooper, of which kuyper is the Dutch. He resided at Paulus Hook; his wife died previous to 1656 (in November of which year he m. again), by whom he had three children. The other dau. of Cool, Altie Cornells, m. Gerret Wolfertse van Couwenhoven, and from her are descended the Brooklyn and New Utrecht Cowenhovens.

Cornelius lost his father, Cornelius Volkertszen when he was only six years of age. His father's place was quickly taken (1650), according to the custom of the times, by Jan Peek. Under the care of a very capable mother and that active trader, his Step-father, he grew up with an understanding of the Indian -- his ways, his language and his manner of trading -- which fitted him to be an interpreter, as was his brother, Aernout, a friend of the Red man, and also, no doubt, somewhat of a trader in his tavern in Schenectardy. There is record of his acting as interpreter and of his refusing to so ace. There is a record of a gift to him from the Indians, which vouches for their friendly feeling, and doubtless, their sense of obligation, for the Indians never forgot a friend any more than they did an enemy. His license as a tavern keeper in Schenectady was granted him in 1672 as a special favor from the Albany authorities for services rendered to them, so that while he may not have been as brilliant as his brother, Aernout, He was a dignified substantial, and worthy representative of that brave and hardy bank of pioneers who held for many years the outposts of civilization in New York State. It has been reported that a party was being held at his tavern the night of a bloody Indian massacre. He probably survived since his name is on the list of survivors to receive assistance, but he undoubtedly died shortly thereafter, perhaps from his wounds. After 1690 he is no longer mentioned in the records and his tavern was taken over by Douve Aukes who also adopted his son, Cornelis JR. Aukes may have married Suster (CC Viele's Widow) after his death. The name "Suster" was perpetuated in the family for 150 years since each descendant had named a child, Suster. The name is not in any other record of early Dutch Families in New York.

844 Cornelis Viele.

Cornelise Viele in company with Claas Frederickse Van Petten, in 1668 purchased the two bouweries No. 8, of Marten Cornelise Van Ysselsteyn, including his house, barn, three ricks, four horses, five cows, eight hogs, wagon, plough and harrow. Viele sold his moiety, the hindmost farm to Jurriaen Teunise of Albany.

He was one of the two licensed tapsters of the village, his inn being on the south corner of State street and Mill lane near Church street. He was succeeded here by Douw Aukes, who married Maria Vielef his grand-daughter. It was at his house that the traditional merry making was going on when the village was destroyed on the night of the*8th Feb., 16ff ; Aukes' wife, two children and a negro servant were slain, and his brother-in-law, Arnout Viele was carried away to Canada.

845 Cornelis Volckertsen Viele
Cornelis Viele was probably born in Hoorn, North Holland. Certainly a trader and tavern-keeper of New Amsterdam in 1639; probably a sailmaker and trader of Hoorn. A document dated June 5, 1614 states that Cornelis Volkertszen, Bookseller resided at Hoorn on the Nieuwland (street) in the house called "`t Vergulde Claver" (the golden clover). He was an investor in the ship "The Fortuyn" which explored the Hudson River in 1613 just four years after Henry Hudson (1609). He was also an investor in the New Netherland Company formed to explore and settle New Amsterdam. He evidently followed his investment by settling in New York.
https://www.deloriahurst.com/deloriahurst%20page/2385.html
 		Viele, Cornelis Volkertsen Seylmacker (I5764)
 
846 CORNELIS VOLCKERTSEN VIELE, the grandfather of Elizabeth and Blandina Viele who married the brothers, Jacob and Benjamin Corssen, came from Kniphausen, in Oldenburg. He sailed for New Netherland on the ship “De Eendracht,” which left Holland in May, 1634. He returned on the same ship, which reached Amsterdam before Dec. 3, 1635, having worked his way over on the boat. (Minutes of the Amsterdam Chamber of the West India Company, 1635-36; see N. Y. Gen. & Biog. Record, July, 1918, Vol. 49, pp. 224, 228.)

Cornelis Volckertsen Viele soon returned to New Netherland as he was a trader and tavern-keeper in New Amsterdam in 1639. He kept his tavern and resided upon the east side of Heerewegh or Broadway, upon a land grant which was conveyed to him by the Dutch authorities about that time. He married, previous to 1640, Marye du Trieux, who was baptised in the Walloon Church at Leiden, Holland, Apr. 5, 1617, as the daughter of Philippe du Trieu (Trieux) and Jacquemine Nouret (Noiret). Marye’s mother presumably died while she was an infant, as the same Walloon Church Register records the Act of Betrothal of July 17, 1621, of Philippe Dutrieux, of Robey (Robaix) Department du Nord, France, worsted dyer, aged 34, widower of Jacquemine Noiret, and Susanna du Chesne, aged 20, orphan, assisted by Jean Pinson, her cousin. On Mar. 9, 1624, Philippe Dutrieux received from the church at Leiden a certificate of transfer “pour Westinde,” meaning that he was about to sail for New Netherland. (Extracts from the Register of the Walloon Church at Leiden, given at the end of Miss K. K. Viele’s Sketches of Allied Fami¬ lies, Knickerbocker-Viele.)

When Cornelis Volckertsen Viele came to New Amsterdam, he probably lodged at the tavern of Philippe du Trieux and thus became acquainted with his future wife. The latter had an illegitimate daughter, who was afterwards adopted by Pieter van Couwenhoven. It may be well to believe as Miss K. K. Viele suggested in a letter to Mr. van Laer, that Cornelis Volckertsen Viele “remained away from New Amsterdam long enough for Marye du Trieux to perhaps have married Pieter van Couwen¬ hoven and then returned like an Enoch Arden.”

Cornells Volckertsen Viele and Marye du Trieux had the fol¬ lowing children baptised in the Dutch Church of New Amsterdam :

Aernoudt, bapt. May 27, 1640, witnesses were Isaac de Forest, Tennis Cray, Schipper (Captain), Jan Cant;

Cornelxs, bapt. Feb. 5, 1643, witnesses were Philip du Trieux, Anneka Bogardus, Gerrit Molenaer;

Jacomintje, bapt. Aug. 20, 1645, witnesses, Jan Evertsen Bout, Isaac Abraharnse, Schipper (Captain), Susanna du Trieux;

Pieter, bapt. Feb. 9, 1648, witnesses, Aert Willemse, Goelman, Henry Schouten tot Vlissingen (Sheriff of Flushing), Evert Van Embden, Maria Thomas, Barentie Gerrits.
(N. Y. Gen. & Biog. Soc. Col, Vol. 2, pp. 10, 14, 19, 24.)

Cornells Volckertsen died in New Amsterdam about 1648-9, and his wife, Maria du Trieux, who was destined to be the grand¬ mother of Blandina and Elizabeth Viele, married in. 1650, Jan Peeck, part Indian trader, part broker between the English and Dutch merchants, and part general speculator. Maria du Trieux, called de Truye by the Dutch, continued with her second husband to operate the tavern, but Jan Peeck's trading expeditions made It necessary for him. to be away from home for long intervals, at which time his very capable wife managed the tavern business. It was in 1664, while thus engaged, that the authorities at New Amsterdam accused her of the serious offense of selling liquor to the Indians. That she must have been guilty of “bootlegging” is evident, as she was fined 500 guilders, and banished from New Amsterdam.

Maria is said, at this time, to have taken up her residence in the settlement of Schenectady, for a short period; but the English took over control of New Amsterdam the following year, and. Maria soon returned to New York and took up her residence in a house on Hoogh Street. Notwithstanding this little escapade, this woman was evidently a good mother as her children became leaders of the pioneers of those days.

Aernoudt had probably the greatest influence with, and enjoyed the greatest confidence of the Redskins of any man of his day. Pie organized large trading and exploring expeditions, penetrating far west into the unknown wilderness. He is credited with being the first white man to view the Ohio River. The early records of our country recount the achievements of Aernoudt Cornelisen Viele, who, as a representative of the government, was entrusted time and time again with bringing to a successful conclusion diffi¬ culties or threatened difficulties with the Indians. For a complete account of these achievements, see pages 1 to 30 in the Viele Family, by Kathryn K. Viele, who sums up these records with the following :

“Here ends the public records of as good a public servant as this country has ever had. One gets a glimpse in these dry records of the difficult life of the early settlers, with enemies and possible enemies on every side. Constant and unremitting had to be the watch on the “Wilden,” capable of such fearful vengeance. None but an intrepid spirit could face them again and again and keep control of them as did Aernoudt Cornelisen Viele.

“We find him associated with the English officials, with military officers, with the French and English Commissioners and with Jesuit priests. And although often placed in trying circumstances in his position as go between, he retains to the last his good name with both sides. Once he was outwitted, perhaps by the Jesuit de Lamberville and the wily French agents, but he failed not to talk to the Indians in the tone of one who expects to be obeyed.
“Take him all in all he was a fine type of the sturdy Dutch pioneers who wrestled so persistently to secure the lands which are ours today. It was due to such as he that the French in the North were held in check and our Empire State was preserved to the English until it became American.”

CORNELIS CORNELISEN VIELE was only six years old when his father died. He grew up under the care of his very capable mother and step-father with an understanding of the Indian — his ways, his language and his manner of trading — which fitted him to be an interpreter and a friend of the Red man as was his brother Aernoudt. He seems to have gone to Schenectady, possibly with his mother in 1664, where he conducted a tavern and no doubt a trading business with the Indians in connection with same. There is record of his acting as interpreter and of his refusing so to act. There is record of a gift to him from the Indians, which vouches for their friendly feeling, and, doubtless, their sense of obligation, for the Indians never forgot a friend any more than they did an enemy.

His license as a tavern keeper in Schenectady was granted to him in 1672,.as a special favor from the Albany authorities for services rendered to them, so that Cornelis Cornelisen Viele, while not the brilliant man that Aernoudt was, takes the position of a dignified, substantial, and worthy representative of that brave and hardy band of pioneers, who held for many years the outposts of civilization in New York State.

Cornelis Cornelisen Viele is mentioned among the heads of Schenectady families who received relief from Albany after the massacre of 1690.

He was one of the two licensed tapsters of the village, his inn being on the south corner of State street and Mill lane near Church street. He was succeeded here by Douw Aukes, who married Maria Vielè (209-1) his grand-daughter. It was at his house that the traditional merry making was going on when the village was destroyed on the night of the 8th Feb., 1689/90; Aukes' wife, two children and a negro servant were slain, and his brother-in-law, Arnout Vielè was carried away to Canada.

The following action was taken Jan. 9, 1671, by the Governor in reference to a "Lycence for Cornelyse Cornelyssen Vielen of Schanechtide to tapp strong Beer & Liquors there" &c.

"Whereas Cornelys Cornelyssen Vielen of Schanechtide haveing made this Address to ye commissarys att Albany, desiring hee may have Liberty to tapp strong Beer & Liquors and to keep an Ordinary, in recompence for several services done by him between us & ye Maques, the wh: they have Recommended to mee for my approbation. But in regard there is a Person already there by name Aques Cornelyssen Gautsh [Van Slyck] an indyan, that doeth ye same by Lycence and Appointmt of my Predecessor, Coll: Richard Nicolls, would give noe Determinaçon therein:

"And it being likewise represented that ye said Acques hath not sufficient Accommadaçon for Strangers wh. ye said Cornely's Cornelyssen Vielen doth promise to bee well provided off ye reliefe of Strangers & Travellers, Upon consideraçon had thereupon I have Thought fitt to graunt ye Request of ye said Cornelys Cornelyssen Vielen & by these Presents doe give him free Lycence and Liberty to tap or sell by Retayle strong Beere & Liquors to Strangers & Travellers at Schanechtide, wth this Proviso, That this Lycence now granted shall not take away ye priviledge of ye former Lycence given by my Predecessor to Aques: And that ye said Cornelys Cornelyssen doe keep fitting Accommadaçon for men and horses, but doe not presume to sell any strong Liquors to ye Indyans to cause any disturbance that way under ye penalty of forfeiting this Lycence & paying such ffine as ye Law shall Require.

"Given under my Hand at Fort James in New York this 9th day of January 1671." (209-2)

A dispute having arisen between the two above mentioned tapsters, Governor Lovelace on the 6th of May, 1672, "ordered that both have Lycense to tap without molesting each other." (210-1)

On the 15th of Aug., 1671, Cornelis Vielè received a patent to confirm to him a parcel of land at Schenectady on the north side of the Mohawk river, "beginning at a certain oaken tree markt on the east and west sides thereof and so goes alonget the river S. S., east to ye Point containing in breadth 130 rods and from ye Point goes again north-west 106 rods, lyeing south [North] west from ye hindmost lot of bouwland belonging to Gerrit Bancker and running along ye bush or woodside north-west, its in length 132 rods; - all ye said land as it lyes having been markt out by ye Indians at the uttmost limits thereof; - as also a certain island [Sassian's] bounded on ye south side by ye Maqaaees river over against ye north end of Jacques Cornelissen's [Van Slyck's] island, on the north-east side with a creek or kil that lies by the aforementioned Hoeke of bouwland, containing in bigness fourteen acres, or seven morgens of land." (210-2)

Benjamin Roberts owned a farm at Maalwyck west of Vielè's, also the land opposite on the south side of the river, called Poversen, which he sold to Hend. Lamb Bont, and Bont to Vielè, to whom
said lands were confirmed by a patent of date Sept. 29, 1677, and by Bont's son to Douwe Aukes who conveyed the same to his adopted son Cornelis Vielè, Jr., son of the first settler. (210-3)

After Roberts' death his farm at Maalwyck came into possession of his two step-sons, Pieter and Joseph Clement; the former sold his share to Cornelis Vielè, Jr., in 1710, being the westerly moiety. The deed recites that "whereas Benjamin Roberts late of Schenectady, obtained a patent July 1, 1669, from Governor Lovelace for a piece of land on the north side of the Mohawk river over against ye hindmost land heretofore belonging to Arent [Bratt] the Norman, &c., and whereas said Roberts by his will June 28 in ye 5th year of Anne gave said land to his wife Mary for her support while living and a widow, and if she married then to [his stepsons] Pieter and Joseph Clement to be divided between them giving to the former the house, barn, &c," - therefore Pieter Clement aforesaid conveyed the westerly half of said farm together with the easterly half of Benten island to Cornelis Vielè [Jr.,] for the sum of 445 pounds. (210-4)

Cornelis Vielè, senior, also had a gift of land from the natives at the Aal Plaas on the north side of the river. This tract extended two miles down the river and five miles into the woods. The certificate
is dated 12 Feb., 1718/9, and states that Vielè had possession thereof eighteen years and then sold it to his daughter, Jannetie, life of Johannes Dyckman, who left it at the time of the massacre (in 1690) after occupying it two years. (211-1)

His wife was Suster [sister?] ---- possibly of Mohawk blood. Children: Arnout Cornelis, Pieter, Volkert, bp. Dec. 1, 1689, [died without issue], Jannetie [wife of Johannes Dyckman], Debora [wife of Daniel Ketelhuyn]. (211-2)

Notes
(208-4) Deeds, II, 740, 741, 777.
(209-1) [The Vielè chart compiled by Genl. E. L. Vielè of N. Y., records: Maria married Matthys Vrooman, Mary married Douwe Aukes. The text agrees with Trouw boek and other Dutch church records. There were but two daughters mentioned. Willempie who married S. J. Schermerhorn, and Maria who married first M. Vrooman; second Douwe Aukes. Sewell's Dictionary Amsterdam 1708, compares names: Maria, Mariken, Mary, Marritje, Marytje, Maartje, Maaike = Mary in the English. Was not this Maria of one marriage the Mary of the other? - M'M.]

(211-2) [The Vielè family chart gives him eleven children: Arnout Cornelisson, 1677; Willempie, ----; Maria, 1684; Mary, 1685; Cornellise, 1687; Debora, 1695; Pieter Cornellise, 1700; Susannah, 1707; Luclovickus, 1709; Teunis, ----; Volkert, ----. It also makes Maria Cornellise instead of Maria Arnoutse, the wife of Mathys Vrooman and Mary Cornellise, the wife of Dowe Aukes. This does not accord with the Schenectady and Albany Dutch Church Records but Gen. Vielè may have family bible of that date as authority. - M'M.]
