About Theunis Thomaszen Quick

He was the son of Thomas Quick, (1579-1650) who was born in Naarden, Holland. He grew to adulthood in Naarden and married there, 9 Mar 1625, to Belijtgen Jacobus. He became a mason by trade. At least two children were born to them before they set sail for the New World.

They settled on the tip of New Amsterdam (now Manhattan) across the street from the fort. As the city grew he was kept busy with his trade. He was sometimes known as Theunis Quick de Matzelaer van Naarden, meaning the mason from Naarden.

He was granted "Small Burgher Right" at New Amsterdam on 14 Apr 1657. He took the Oath of Allegiance 22-26 Oct 1664 at New York.

He had more than 20 dealings of buying and selling real estate between 1645 and 1663. On 19 April 1666 he was living on the Beaver Graft.

He may have died in the first half of 1667 as several times his real estate sales of previous years are made clear in the courts in the summer of that year.

He was the father of seven known children;

  1. Weytje bpt.-23 July 1628, Naarden
  2. Jacob b-Naarden
  3. Hellegonde bpt.-25 Nov 1640, New Amsterdam
