early years

(His father) " Lucas Dircksen procured a bill or sale for this plot (now No. 21 Broadway) in June, 1656 (Liber Deeds, B: 28), and here he kept an inn of questionable character, frequently coming into collision with the city authorities.-Rec. N. Am., III: 334. Some two years earlier, he had received permission to retail beer and wine.-Ibid., I: 163. At this time he was a "Sergeant in the service of the Honble Company," but, on February 15, 1656, he asked for and obtained his discharge from the Company, in order to "transport himself with his family to the South river of New-Netherland, to settle there, where he has bought a house." -N. Y. Gol. Docs., XII: Il9. His stay at the South River must have been very brief, though the records show that he continued for some time to own property at New Castle, Delaware. Before April 13, 1670, Dircksen was dead, and his widow, Annetie Cornelis, was married to Jacobus Fabritius, a German Lutheran minister who came from Albany to take charge of the Lutheran Church in New York-much to the discomfiture of Domine Megapolensis (the younger).-Eccles. Rec., I: 95,606; N. Y. Gol. Docs., XII: 473· " ~• I N Phelps Stokes

leaving us to wonder what occupation Connelis had as he grew up...
