In response to the comment that "i didnt know the dutch were that dispersed through out New england," yes, indeed, Dutch traders were dispersed throughout both New England and the Chesapeake. For example, Boston merchant Jacob Melyen, whose daughter became Samuel Sewall's second wife, was the son of Staten Island "patroon" Cornelis Melyn. Maryland justice Jacob Loockermans was the son of New Amsterdam merchant Govert Loockermans, and brother of Elsie Tymens, wife of Jacob Leisler. An extensive list could be constructed of Dutch traders and settlers in both New England and the Chesapeake; these are two such examples. David William Voorhees
