On March 3, 1660 (1036) Albert Roosa, living in Herwijnen, conveyed half a tract of land as yet undivided between the heirs of Govert Ariensen De Jongh, in Hellouw ( a mile or so from Herwijnen) and again he pledged his interest in the estate of the late (2074) Adrian Meertensen De Jongh as security for the fulfillment of the contract. It is further proof that the wife of (1036) Albert was the daughter of (2074) Adrian Meertensen. The de Jongh family owned large fowler preserves in Hellouw in the 17th century. (1036) Albert was a wealthy man for those days, bringing to New Netherlands considerable property from Holland, and he speedily occupied an influential position in the new settlement.
Pursuant to the directions of Their Lords High Mightinesses of Holland, Governor Stuyvesant and his Council, at New Amsterdam on May 16, 1661, granted a charter to organize a civil government at Wiltwyck. By this Charter Evert Pels, Cornelis Barentsen Slecht and Elbert Heymans oose were appointed the first three Schepens, or Magistrates, who with the presiding Schout, Roeloff Swartwout completed "the Organization of the first village and first judicial tribunal in this section of the State. (1036) Albert Heymans was banned from holding public office after the Esopus Mutiny. His sentence was subsequently modified, and he returned to Esopus. Governor Francis Lovelace restored Roosa to favor and in 1669 appointed him as one of the Overseers for Hurley, called New Dorp or New Village. In 1673 he was confirmed as one of the officers at Esopus by Governor Anthony Colve and described as "Captain Albert Heymans, who had been prominent in the riot of 1667". Albert served in the military forces of the Colony as mustering officer and in other capacities and on April 5, 1670 at the military rendezvous held at Marbletown, he was present as Sergeant of (1037vii[1]) Captain Henry Pawling's Company at which also appeared his son (518) Arie Roosa as private, and in 1673 Albert was Captain of a company recruited from Hurley and Marbletown. -- http://w3.gwis.com/~cmcgraw/family/wayne/roosa.htm For subsequent events, see The Esopus War, the Wiltwyck Massacre and the Mutiny Against the English In the spring of 1661 Albert joined with his son, (518) Arien Albertson Roosa and Jacob Jansen Van Etten, (515iii[1]) Tho. Quick, (2223[2]) Roeloff Swartwout, Mattys Blanchan, Louys Du Bois and others, to the petition to Sir Edmund Andros, Governor of New York, praying that he would assist them in procuring a minister for Esopus "that can preache bothe Inglish and Dutche, wch. will bee most fitting for this place, it being in its Minority." (1036) Roosa was the most prominent member of the RDC Consistory, which played an active role in the life of Esopus. On February 12, 1664, they sent the following petition to the court: "The Reverend Consistory here.. request... that the public, sinful and scandalous Bacchanalian days of Fastenseen [i.e. Mardi Gras or Shrove Tuesday], coming down from the heathens from their idol Bacchus, the God of wine and drunkenness, beain also a leaven of popery, inherited from the pagans, which the Apostle, in 1 Co. 5, admonishes true Christians to expurge, may, while near at hand, be proscribed in this place by your Honors, by proper ordinances, while we admonish against and publicly reprehend those abominations, so that through God's grace and blessing we shall mutually have done our duty, and we may thereby do some good for this place and its inhabitants, their bodies as well as their souls,- the more so as we are passing through such woeful times of God's judgement over us in this place [a strange disease was then ravaging Esopus], inflicted because of our sins- and so we may not, through such scandalous sins as Fastenseen, and sinful doing, continue to irritate the Lord and still further call down his judgements upon us, for we are still under his rod, and his sword of war still threatens us yet more to try the land and its inhabitants." -- Jim Miller at millerpl@frontiernet.net |

Pels
The history of this ancient South Holland family traces its ancestry as a family of Netherlands origin before the year 1100
(1038) Sch. Evert Pels and Martin Hendricksz Beekman (1616/17-) bought a brewery (in Fort Orange, NY?) together in 1650.
"It was recorded that a son of Evert Pels was captured by Native Americans during the outbreak of the Second Esopus War (just prior to the surrender of New Netherland to the English). The son was adopted by and married into the tribe. He and his wife, who became pregnant, were unwilling to part. Unfortunately, I do not know the name of this son or of his wife."
