Life Sketch
He made his first appearance in Beverwyck records on August 22, 1654, when a burgess and citizen he bought a lot in Fort Orange, the central part of the village. A day later he purchased a suit and offered clothing for sale, beginning his career as a tailor. He purchased more land in Beverwyck on July 27, 1657. Beaver skins were the chief product of the region, and his enthusiasm for the business brought him afoul of the law on July 15, 1660. He and others were charged with going into the woods or employing Dutchmen as brokers for trade with the Indians. On April 20, 1661 he declared that he was about to depart for the Esopus (an early name for Kingston, New York, also applied to the area of the Esopus river, and finally a town east of Kingston). By September 11, 1663 he sold his house and lot in Beverwyck. The summer of 1663 was a trying one for him. On June 7 the Indians sacked and buried Wildwyck and took his wife Grietje and their child. When Jonathan Withart sued him for debt in July, the judge was lenient with him because of his situation. The story has not been revealed about how his wife was recovered. He settled in Ulster County, bought land in Kingston on January 30, 1671. On June 27, 1671 he conferred power of attorney for the collection of debts in New Albany. In 1674 he became magistrate for the town of Marbletown.
