Lubbert Gysbertsen was born in Blaricum, about 12 English miles southeast of Amsterdam, in the district called Gooiland.1 By trade, Lubbert was a rademaecker (wheelwright and wagon maker). He was husband to Divertje Cornelis and father of Gysbert, Thys and Jan. Lubbert and his family came to New Netherland on contract with Kiliaen van Rensselaer, the patroon of Rensselaerwyck in New Netherland (on both banks of the Hudson near Fort Orange, now Albany, New York).1 Upon arrival Lubbert would have a 3-year period to repay expenses to van Rensselaer. During this time, Lubbert could not quit his trade and he could not work for others except through the patroon's agent.1

Early on, the family lived on a farm at Bethlehem, just south of Albany on the west side of the Hudson River. Later, Lubbert was given a Dutch patent for 50 morgens (100 acres) of land on Bergen Neck, now in the Greenville area (just south of Jersey City).1

Lubbert would meet his demise some time between December 5, 1654, when his patent was granted, and May 1, 1656, when his widow and son-in-law requested permission to open a tavern. It is assumed he was killed during an Indian raid on New Amsterdam sparked by a Native American who was killed for stealing fruit from the orchards. During this time occupants of these lands were driven out of Bergen Neck and into Staten Island, which was also in ruins.

From THE FIRST VAN BLARICUMS IN NORTH AMERICA

"On 15 Apt. 1634 in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, Kiliaen van Rensselaer, the patroon of Rensselaerwyck in New Netherland (on both banks of the Hudson near Fort Orange [now Albany], New York), signed a contract with Lubbert Gysbertsen van Blaricum , a 33-year old rademaecker [wheelwright and wagon maker] under which Lubbert was 'to betake himself with his wife and three children at his own expense,' the patroon to pay expenses to the Wester Indian Company for passage on the ship de Eendracht [The Unity], then being made ready to sail to New Netherland.

The contract provided for reimbursement of these expenses over a three-year period, which was to begin upon Lubbert's arrival in New Netherland. During this period, he could not quit the agreed-upon service, could not work for others except through the patroon's agent, and could not enter into private trading in furs, etc.

Lubbert's place of residence was to be chosen 'with the advice and consent of the patroon's agents where he can most conveniently perform his work, namely his trade as a wagon maker or wheelwright, for which he shall take all the necessary tools with him from here at his own expense' (VRBM 285ff).

"Lubbert's birthplace of Blaricum is about 12 English miles southeast of Amsterdam, in the district called Gooiland. The Van Rensselaer records give the name of his wife and the names and ages of the children at the time they left The Netherlands; but for his wife, Divertje Cornelis, we do not have a birthplace nor her age in 1634 or at any other time.

The eldest son, Gysbert, was ten years old in 1634, and had been born 'Uij't de Beemster in Noordt Holland.' This is the district north of Amsterdam along the IJsselmeer [Zuider Zee]. Thys was six, and had been born in 'de Rijp in Noordt Holland.' Jan was one and a half years old, and had been born in dam. These last two birthplaces are within the Beemster area, so it seems safe to assume that, although Lubbert was born in Blaricum, he had lived during his married life in the Beemster area. It is likely that his wife had lived there before their marriage.

"The last lighter with supplies and people for Rensselaerwyck left Amsterdam on 24 Apr. 1634 and sailed up the IJsselmeer to the Texel--the southernmost on the West Frisian Islands, at the mouth of the IJsselmeer. A total of six men, one women and three children were bound for Rensselaerwyck when de Eendracht sailed with favorable winds from the Texel early in May 1634.

"If the ship followed the usual route, she sailed down the North Sea and through the English Channel to Plymouth or some other port in southern England. There her water and other provisions would be replenished and she would sail south until she entered the northeast trade winds. This route continued south, past the Madeira and Canary Islands, 'until the butter melts,' as one rule of thumb had it. This point was usually on or near the Tropic of Cancer. Thence the course was west, sailing before the trades.

About a month after entering the trades, having reached a point about north of the Lesser Antilles, the ship would be turned northwest to the North American mainland and New Netherland. Passengers slept in the hold or on a pallet on deck. Passengers usually had to provide their own food and the means for preparing it. Occasionally, the diet could be varied by catching a fish."

"Lubbert's account at Rensselaerwyck was opened on 20 July 1634 which indicates that the trip from the Texel to Fort Orange took about two and a half months. The patroon had promised Lubbert 'the fourth farm to be established,' but we cannot tell from available records where Lubbert first lived or when he moved onto a farm. Later he did live on a farm at Bethlehem, just south of Albany on the west side of the Hudson River.

We know very little about the life of his family at Rensselaerwyck, but he must have found it to his liking, for he stayed long beyond his stipulated three years.

"His account with the colony was closed in 1647, having run a total of 13 years. Divertje, his wife, witnessed the baptism of young Halmagh Roelofsen Van Houten in New Amsterdam on 25 June 1648. From these facts we may safely conclude that Lubbert and his family moved from the vicinity of Albany to New Amsterdam in late 1647 or early 1648.

"On 5 Dec. 1654, Lubbert Gysbertsen was given a Dutch patent for 50 morgens [100 acres] of land on Bergen Neck, below Cavan Point now in the Greenville area south of Jersey City, NJ. Just south of him was his son-in-law, Jan Cornelis Buys, with 25 Morgens, and then his son Jan Lubbertsen, also with 25 morgens.

Just when these farms were first occupied is not known, but Lubbert Gysbertsen and others were living in New Jersey, presumably on this same land, before the patents were granted. An evidence of this is the fact that Lubbert's granddaughter Tryntje Oosteroom, who was baptized in New Amsterdam on 16 Aug. 1654, was given in her marriage record as born in New Jersey.

"On 15 Sep. 1655, after an Indian had been killed in New Amsterdam for stealing fruit from an orchard, a large war party of Indians terrified the occupants of New Amsterdam for several hours, all of the Dutch soldiers being at the time on the Delaware, fighting the Swedes. The Indians then went across the Hudson where, within a few hours, they burned the Dutch bouweries and plantations and killed or captured everyone who had not fled. They then moved down Bergen Neck and over to Staten Island, which was also devastated. The following account differs slightly from some earlier reports:

' . . . in three days time about 50 Christians were killed and murdered, more than one hundred, mostly women and children, captured, of whom we afterward ransomed 60 to 70 at great expense, the rest being still in their hands, 28 bouweries and some plantations and about 12 to 15 thousand schepels of grain burned, 500 to 600 head of cattle either killed or taken by the barbarians;

. . . [they] have suffered through these barbarous Indians a damage of more than two hundred thousand gilders and more than 200 persons besides those who were killed or are still in captivity, have lost their possessions and have nothing left to procure food and clothing for themselves and their families must be a charge upon this city. (CDNY 13:50, 31 Oct. 1655)

"It seems probable that Lubbert was killed during this Indian raid, for the following entry appears in the minutes of the Court of Schepens and Burgomasters of New Amsterdam under date of 1 May 1656:

'Jan Corns. Buys, alias Jan Damen, and Lubbers Gysbertsen widow, request permission to tap, as they have been driven from their houses by the last trouble with the Indians. Whereon is endorsed: --Petitioners' request is granted like others.' (RNS 2:93).

"At least, he died sometime between 5 Dec. 1654, when his patent was granted, and 1 May 1656, when his widow and his son-in-law requested permission to open a tavern. Lubbert was about 55 years old when he died, and seems to have been the leader of the group that settled Bergen Neck, as he received twice as much land as his companions, who were mainly his sons and sons-in-law."

On 15 April 1634 in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, Kiliaen van Rens­selaer, the patroon of Rensselaerwyck in New Netherland (on both banks of the Hudson near Fort Orange [now Albany], New York), signed a contract with Lubbert Gysbertsen van Blaricum, a thirty-three year old rademaecker [wheelwright and wagon maker] under which Lubbert was "to betake himself with his wife and three children at his own expense," the patroon to pay expenses to the '\-Vest India Company for passage on the ship de Eendracht [The Unity] then being made ready to sail to New Netherland. The contract provided for reimbursement of these expenses over a three year period, which was to begin upon Lubbert's arrival in New Netherland. During this period he could not quit the agreed upon service, could not work for others except through the patroon's agent, and could not enter into private trading in furs, etc. Lubbert's place of residence was to be chosen "with the advice and consent of ... the pa­troon's agents where he can most conveniently perform his work, namely his trade as a wagon maker or wheelwright, for which he shall take all the necessary tools with him from here at his own expense" (VRBM 285ff) Lubbert's birthplace of Blaricum is about twelve English miles south­east of Amsterdam, in the district called Gooiland. The Van Rensselaer records give the name of his wife and the names and the ages of the chil­dren at the time they left The Netherlands; but for his wife, Divertje Cornelis, we do not have a birthplace nor her age in 1634 or at any other time. The eldest son, Gysbert, was ten years old in 1634, and had been born "Uij't de Beemster in Noordt Holland." This is the district north of Amsterdam along the IJsselmeer [Zuider Zee]. Thys was six, and had been born in "de Rijp in Noordt Holland." Jan was one and a half years old, and had been born in Edam. These last two birthplaces are within the Beemster area, so it seems safe to assume that, although Lubbert was born in Blaricum, he had lived during his married life in the Beemster area. It is likely that his wife had lived there before their marriage. The last lighter with supplies and people for Rensselaerwyck left Am­sterdam on 24 April 1634 and sailed up the IJsselmeer to the Texel - the southernmost of the Vvest Frisian Islands, at the mouth of the IJsselmeer. A total of six men, one woman, and three children were bound for Rens­selaerwyck when de Eendracht sailed with favorable winds from the Tex­el early in May 1634. If the ship followed the usual route, she sailed down the North Sea and through the English Channel to Plymouth or some other port in south­ern England. There her water and other provisions would be replenished, and she would sail south until she entered the northeast trade winds. This route continued south, past the Madeira and Canary Islands, "until the butter melts," as one rule of thumb had it. This point was usually on or near the Tropic of Cancer. Thence the course was west, sailing before the trades. About a month after entering the trades, having reached a point about north of the Lesser Antilles, the ship would be turned northwest to the North American mainland and New Netherland. Such a circuitous course was adopted largely because it was faster and easier to sail with the trades than to fight the westerlies to the north of them. Similarly, returning ships normally went south to the vicinity of Ber­muda, whence the westerlies wafted them to Europe. The voyage was probably far from pleasant for Lubbert and his family. The ship, being small, would pitch and lurch most of the time. There were no private sleeping quarters: passengers slept in the hold or on a pallet on deck. Passengers usually had to provide their own food and the means for preparing it, although, because of the small number aboard de Eendracht, passengers and crew may have been served from the galley. Food aboard ship consisted of salt beef, salt pork, and salt cod; ship's biscuits [hardtack]; oatmeal; dried peas; salt, suet, butter; beer, cider, and water. But biscuits soured and became wormy, the water became filthy, and much of the food became contaminated by the numerous rats and roaches. Occasionally the diet could be varied by catching a fish. Lubbert's account at Rensselaerwyck was opened on 20 July 1634, which indicates that the trip from the Texel to Fort Orange took about two and a half months. The patroon had promised Lubbert "the fourth farm to be established," but we cannot tell from available records where Lubbert first lived or when he moved onto a farm. Later he did live on a farm at Bethlehem, just south of Albany on the west side of the Hudson River. We know very little about the life of his family at Rensselaerwyck, but he must have found it to his liking, for he stayed long beyond his stipulated three years. His account with the colony was closed in 1647, having run a total of thirteen years. Divertje, his wife, witnessed the baptism of young Hal­magh Roelofsen Van Houten in New Amsterdam on 25 June 1648. The boy's father, Roelof Cornelisen Van Houten, had lived at Rensselaerwyck, and his mother, Geertje Van Ness, had been a neighbor of Lubbert's fam­ily at Bethlehem. From these facts we may safely conclude that Lubbert and his family moved from the vicinity of Albany to New Amsterdam in late 1647 or early 1648. On 5 December 1654 Lubbert Gysbertsen was given a Dutch patent for fifty morgens [100 acres] of land on Bergen Neck, below Cavan Point, now in the Greenville area south of Jersey City, New Jersey. Just south of him was his son-in-law, Jan Cornelis Buys, with twenty-five morgens, and then his son Jan Lubbertsen, also with twenty-five morgens. A little farther south were the twenty-five morgen farms of his sons Lubbert and Gysbert Lubbertsen and his son-in-law Hendrick Jansen Oosteroom. Just when these farms were first occupied is not known, but Lubbert Gysbertsen and others were living in New Jersey, presumably on this same land, before the patents were granted. An evidence of this is the fact that Lubbert's granddaughter Tryntje Oosteroom, who was baptized in New Amsterdam on 16 August 1654, was given in her marriage record as born in New Jersey. On 15 September 1655, after an Indian had been killed in New Am­sterdam for stealing fruit from an orchard, a large war party of Indians terrified the occupants of New Amsterdam for several hours, all of the Dutch soldiers being at the time on the Delaware, fighting the Swedes. The Indians then went across the Hudson where, within a few hours, they burned the Dutch bouweries and plantations and killed or captured everyone who had not fled. They then moved down Bergen Neck and over to Staten Island, which was also devastated. The following account differs slightly from some earlier reports: ... in three days' time about 50 Christians were killed and murdered, more than one hundred, mostly women and children, captured, of whom we afterward ran­somed 60 to 70 at great expense, the rest being still in their hands, 28 bouweries and some plantations and about twelye to fifteen thousand schepels or grain burned, 500 to 600 head of cattle either killed or taken by the barbarians; ... [they] have suffered through these barbarous Indians a damage of more than two hundred thousand guilders and more than 200 persons besides those who were killed or are still in captivity, have lost their possessions and haw nothing left to procure food and clothing for themselves and their families must be a charge upon this city ... (CD NY 13:50; 31 October 1655) It seems probable that Lubbert was killed during this Indian raid, for the following entry appears in the minutes of the Court of Schepens and Burgomasters of New Amsterdam under date of 1May 1656: Jan Corns Buys, alias Jan Damen, and Lubbers Gysbertsen widow, request per­mission to tap, as they have been driven from their houses by the last trouble with the Indians. "Whereon is endorsed:- Petitioners' request is granted like others (RNA 2:93). At least, he died some time between 5 December 1654, when his patent was granted, and 1 May 1656, when his widow and his son-in-law re­quested permission to open a tavern. Lubbert was about fifty-five years old when he died, and seems to have been the leader of the group that settled Bergen Neck, as he received twice as much land as his compan­ions, who were mainly his sons and sons-in-law. Divertje Cornelis, Lubbert's widow, apparently did not move back to the west side of the Hudson when the settlers were permitted to return to their land holdings. She married second Jan Aertsen Vanderbilt and lived on Long Island, at or near Midwout [Flatbush]. Her date of death is not known, but her widower married 11 December 1681 (by banns of 7 November at Flatbush and 11 November at Bergen) Magdaleentje Hannsen, widow of Harman Eduarsz. Harman Eduarsz' first wife had been Jannetje Hendricks Oosteroom, one of Divertje's granddaughters. Lubbert Gysbertsen and his wife Divertje Cornelis had seven children, the sequence of birth of the last four being uncertain:

Lubbert was one of our earliest Dutch an

Lubbert was one of our earliest Dutch ancestors. He was a wheelwright and a very early settler of Renssalaerwyck,N.Y. His account at Rensselaerwyck opened on 20 July 1634, and indicated that the trip from the Texel to Fort Orange (now Albany, New York) took two and a half months. He settled on a farm at Bethlehem, just south of Albany, on the west side of the Hudson River. He stayed long beyond the stipulated three years of his patroon. His account of that colony closed in 1647. Lybbert and his family apparently moved to New Amsterdam in late 1647 or early 1648. On 5 December 1654 he was given a Dutch patent for 100 acres of land on Bergen Neck, now in the Greenville area south of Jersey City, New Jersey. His sons and sons-in-law received 50 Acres each. He lived a little north of his son-in-law Hendrick Jansen Oosteroom. On 15 September 1655 after an Indian had been killed in New Amsterdam for stealing fruit from an orchard, a large war party of Indians terrified the settlers of New Amsterdam for several hours (at a time when the Dutch soldiers were fighting the Swedes on the Delaware.) The Indians then crossed the Hudson and burned Dutch plantations, and killed or captured those who had not fled. It seems probable that Lubbert was killed during this Indian raid. The New Amsterdam Court of 1 May 1656 recorded that the widow of Lubbers Gysbertsen had been driven from her home. That same day his widow and son-in-law requested permission to open a tavern.

Lubbert Gijsbertsz, from Blaricum, (near Naarden, in the province of North Holland), wheelwright, came to Rensselaerwijck in 1634 aboard de Eendracht (sailing from Texel). He made a contract with the patroon on 15 April 1634, and sailed with his wife Divertgen Cornelis and three sons, Gijsbert, Theus, and Jan. His account with the Rensselaerwijck colony runs from 20 July 1634 until 1647. Ibid., (Another source gave the sons ages, "Gysbert, aged 10, Theus (Mathew), aged 6, and Jan, aged 1 1/2").

He moved to New Amsterdam in 1647/48 and was at Begren (Jersey City) by 1654. Harry Macy Jr., "Gerritsen-Garrison, Van Wicklen, Hardenbergh, Wiltsie: Descendants of Gerrit Lubbertsen of Jamaica, L.I.", New York Genealogical and Biographical Record Vol. 116 (1985): 116:157.

Married 1623 to Divertje Cornelis in Blaricum, Gooiland, Netherlands,

"From Blarcom, near Naarden in North Holland, to Renselaerwyck in 1634, to work as a Wheelwright. With him were his wife and 3 children. Moved to New Amsterdam about 1648, patented land in Bergen Co 1654 and moved there (near Jersey City). Indian troubles in New Jersey drove settlers from their homes in Sep. 1656, including Lubbert's widow.

Patent to Lubbert Gysbertsen: To Lubbert Gysbertsen a piece of land on the other side of the North river, between Jan Vinge on the North side and Jan Cornelissen Buys on the South side, running along the river S. W. by W. for 90 rods, width in the rear in the woods 90 rods, stretching into the woods N. N. W. for 333 1/3 rods on either side, together 50 morgens. December 5, 1654. He was the first wagon maker in New York. Lubbert moved to Bergen, NJ in 1654. He was killed there by the Indians in 1655. ∼
Birth year is circa. __________________

The Peach Tree War: Lubbert and his family began their time in New Netherland in what's now northern NY. They resettled in the part of NJ known as Pavona, which had been the site of some of the colony's worst violence. The Dutch massacre of 120 Lenape men, women, and children occurred on 25 February 1643, a dozen years before Lubbert's first-born son Gysbert and his new wife Lysbet made their home there, but the event set off years of counterattacks and reprisal killings. The Pavona Massacre (or Kieft’s War) “united the Algonquian peoples in the surrounding areas, to an extent not seen before."

In 1655, the year Lubbert's son Gysbert and his new wife Lysbet were beginning married life, Europe’s battle for control of the Delaware Valley reignited this conflict. Sweden had been expanding a colony in what's new Delaware since 1638 and had formed a trading and defense alliance with the Susquehannock. That summer, Dutch West India Director Pieter Stuyvesant undefended and led 600 men down the Delaware to wrest control from Sweden of large swathes of land in what’s now Delaware, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania. In September, on the same day as the surrender of the Swedes to Stuyvesant, several hundred Susquehannock attacked New Amsterdam and its surrounding outposts in Pavonia, Harlem, Staten Island, and the Bronx." The siege itself lasted 3 days; about 100 Dutch were killed and another 150 were taken hostage, though later released. At the time, some Dutch wrongly assumed the attack was in response to Henry van Dyck shooting an Algonquin girl for eating a peach from his Manhattan orchard. The event is still known as the Peach Tree War (Goodwin). Gysbert’s father might have been killed in the violence.
