Nieuw Nederlandt (New Netherland or New York)

The image on the left is the New Netherland with a view of New Amsterdam drawn by 17th century mapmaker Nicolaas Visscher.

Although the Netherlands only controlled the Hudson River Valley from 1609 until 1664, in that short time, Dutch entrepreneurs established New Netherland, a series of trading posts, towns, and forts up and down the Hudson River that laid the groundwork for towns that still exist today.

Kouwenhoven Got Land From Indians

"Stories of Old Brooklyn" can be found in The Brooklyn Daily Eagle, Brooklyn, New York, dated 17 April 1930, Thursday, page 23, with the headlines: "Kouwenhovens Got Land From Indians."

This is an Old story of the Old Kouwenhoven Mansion on Kings Highway. The plot on which the family mansion stood in 1930 was part of a tract bought soon after ancestor came here in 1630.

I wonder if this old Kouwenhoven mansion and the kouwenhoven family tree still exists today? Who has the Kouwenhoven family tree now? Would love to see it and the mansion if it still stands.
