REGISTER OF ANCESTORS
REGISTER OF ANCESTORS
The Society of the Daughters of Holland Dames is unique
In that it accepts as members only women whose Ancestors
were born in Holland and came to America before 1700. This
limitation prevents its referring to the records of many illus-
trious men who served loyally under the Dutch Crown in this
country.
The men sent out by the " Dutch West India Company "
to the new Colony had offices awaiting them, while those who
followed in their wake waited years to have their abilities
recognized — indeed it was more often the second generation
that produced the most notable men.
To give its first " Record Book " a character in keeping with
that of the Society, the Editors have used the original Dutch
spelling of names of persons and places as far as possible, de-
parting from it only when the orthography itself varied with
the different periods of ancestral service.
Of the provinces mentioned In the Register of Ancestors the
following, enumerating them from north to south, are in Neder-
land, or what we call Holland: Gronlngen, Friesland, Drcnthc,
Overyssel ; North Holland, containing the cities of Amsterdam
and Haarlem; South Holland, containing Leyden and Rotter-
dam, Utrecht, Gelderland, Zeeland, North Brabant, LImburg;
and the following are in what Is now Belgium, but was at one
time a part of Holland : West Flanders, East Flanders.
NIeuw Nederland comprised the territory between the Con-
