| 851 | Cornells Volckertsen died in New Amsterdam about 1648-9, and his wife, Maria du Trieux, who was destined to be the grandmother of Blandina and Elizabeth Viele, married in 1650, Jan Peeck, part Indian trader, part broker between the English and Dutch merchants, and part general speculator. Maria du Trieux, called de Truye by the Dutch, continued with her second husband to operate the tavern, but Jan Peeck's trading expeditions made it necessary for him to be away from home for long intervals, at which time his very capable wife managed the tavern business. It was in 1664, while thus engaged, that the authorities at New Amsterdam accused her of the serious offense of selling liquor to the Indians. That she must have been guilty of “bootlegging” is evident, as she was fined 500 guilders, and banished from New Amsterdam.

These two youths are believed by police to have attempted some 30 daring robberies, may of which turned out so badly that the youths’ efforts seems almost Don Quixotic.

| 886 | Daniel Janse Van Antwerpen. He was born in 1635 ; in 1656 he was a deputy schout fiscal at Fort Orange; in September, 1661 he agreed with Adrian Appel (who was an innkeeper in New Amsterdam and trader in Albany, and doubtless traded sub rosa among the Indians on the Mohawk river), to serve him " in all matters and affairs that are just and right " for one year for 35 beavers [280 guilders] and all expenses ; in 1662 he was at Altoona (on the Delaware river) as deputy schotit fiscal. He went to Schenectady very early in its settlement, probably about 1665. He had much to do with the Indians, probably as a trader and settled eight miles beyond the village with impunity, though it is believed he took the precaution to build a stone walled house on the bank of the Mohawk in the centre of his bouwery, where he and friends were protected against hostile Indians and yet were well out into the narrow channel of trade, along the Mohawk valley. The house being close to the bank the river furnished a route for communicating with the village of Schenectady. This house now exists essentially as it was, or possibly as rebuilt by Jan Pieterse Mabee,f in early part of the last century, with little change since. The English surveys (Sauthier's map) mark the house as late as the French and Indian war as Jan Danielse [Van Antwerpen's], and itineraries of the Mohawk Navigation Company show the adjacent shallow in the river as " Van Antwerp's Reef " where boatmen expected a struggle with the current. His village lot was on the east corner of Union and Church streets which was occupied by him prior to 1671, when a confirmatory grant was made to him by Governor Francis Lovelace. Daniel Janse Van Antwerp owned this lot until 1715 when, at eighty years of age he released it to the consistory of the Nether Dutch church " good causes and consideration him thereunto moving " for the sole and perpetual use of the church. In his deed it is described as " That Certain Lot of Ground Situate, " Lying and being in the Town of Schenectady and house thereon Erected " Containing In Lenth on the East Side Where It butts to the Lott of " Ground now belonging to Julius [Jillis] Van Vorst two hundred foot and " on the South Side by the Highway one hundred foot and on the west Side " Likewise by the High[way] and on the North Side abutting the Lott now " In Possession of John Peterson Mabee, that formerly belonged to Jan " Jans Yoncker where it is in breadth and lenth as before And so men" tioned In the Confirmation above mentioned It being a Corner Lott," etc. Prior to 1670 he settled on the "Third flat" on the south side of the Mohawk river about eight milen above the village of Schenectady. On the 22 Oct., 1677 (having probably secured a deed from the Indians for it at that time),* he solicited letters of administration from the board of magistrates to the Governor and Council for " the third plain situated on this [south] side of the Mohawk river." The magistrates granted his request " acknowledging that he had done many services in their favor." A week later, to wit, on the 29 Oct., this letter was laid before the Governor in New York and he was granted the preference, " when it shall be deemed * [It is to be observed that in taking up lands, the Indian title was first purchased. This required time, besides duffels, strouds and brandy. The next step was to procure the approval of the magistrates and [their "letters of administration" to the Governor and Council soliciting them to confirm the Indian deed and issue a patent. Indian deeds were often given, but being valueless without the Governor's patent were not heard of again, the land in question being otherwise disposed of. Probably the Indians sold the same body of land repeatedly — they certainly demanded repeated pay for land in some instances. The policy of the magistrates of Albany was against extension of the white settlements into the Indian country as dangerous to their trade. — M'M.] proper to take possession of these lands."* In furtherance of this grant of the Governor and Council the following survey of this flat was made soon after by surveyor Van der Baast. " De derde Vlachte aen dese zyde Van de Maquaase rimer versoecht by " Daniel Jansen is lanch by de boskant in het geheele van de ptmt tot de an" dere 356 Rooden ende buy ten de punten 193 rooden ende op zyn breetste " dwars ouer van de boskant tot de rivier 83 rooden maeckende te samen 31 " morgen en 379 rooden. "Aldus gemeten door. " Joris Arissen Van der Baast." The patent for this land was granted 21 Aug., 1680, by Gov. Dongan, and on the 22 Jan., 170 5/6 Van Antwerp sold the westerly half of said farm to Jan Pieterse Mebie. The whole parcel was then described as being 356 rods long along the woodland and in breadth 193 rods and from the wood to the river 83 rods, containing altogether 31 morgens, 379 rods or 63 acres and 79 rods, in accordance with Van der Baast's measurement.]; A portion of this flat is still owned by descendants of Jan Pieterse Mebie. In 1676 he was one of five members of the court of justices of Schenectady and in 1701 was supervisor of the township. Van Antwerpen married Maria, daughter of Symon Symonse Groot, and had five sons and three daughters, all of whom arrived at maturity and left families. Jan the eldest son married Agnieta, daughter of Harmen Vedder and had eleven children; Symon married Maria, daughter of Jacobus Peek and had ten children; he bought land and settled in Schaghticoke, made his Avill in 1744 and devised the westerly sixty feet of the lot of the late S. C. Groot in Union street to his son Jacobus.§ Daniel married Ariaantje, daughter of Gerrit Symonse Veeder and had a family of eleven children, and Pieter married Engeltie, daughter of Jan Mebie and had twelve children, Arent married Sara Van Eps and had nine children. Of the Van Antwerps living in eastern New York it is believed the major portion are descendants of Symon who founded the Schaghticoke branch of the family. From these they have spread throughout the country. A history of the Schenectady patent in the Dutch and English times. page 159-162. | van Antwerpen, Daniel Janse (I5976)

| 890 | Daniel Vance Fieseler October 25, 1958 - January 27, 2024 Daniel Vance Fieseler (65), Son of Donald Vance Fieseler and Barbara Mae Maudsley, was suddenly and unexpectedly taken from this world January 27, 2024, while in his home in Alexander, North Dakota. Daniel, fondly referred to as Danny or Shakey Dan, was born October 25, 1958, in Belflower, California. The fourth of five children and always known for being in some kind of mischief with (or without) his two brothers. Danny was often described by those who love him most as being a tease, a flirt and full of mischief. They also describe him as having an unmistakable laugh, a readiness for fun and joy, and a full and complete love of family, with a heart of gold. However, he was happiest when anyone with long nails would scratch and tickle his back. He enjoyed playing in the Little League when he was young and later, tennis, volleyball and skating. When he was 11 his family relocated from California to La Verkin, Utah where he helped build their forever home from the ground up. Danny graduated from Hurricane High School and shortly after moved up to Northern Utah to start adulthood. In early 1980 he met the mother of his children while out skating. Daniel married Rose Mary Hayford on May 3, 1980. (He lovingly fathered six healthy beautiful children starting with a daughter born on his 22nd birthday.) Dan worked hard all his life to provide for his family and be able to indulge in his passion for vehicles. He spent the majority of his life as a Floor Coverings Specialist. Even though it was hard on his body, his career was (more than carpet tile and hardwood to him. It was) an art (form, that he put his whole heart into. Oftentimes, his source of pride resulted in beautiful Parade of Homes jobs in Park City and around Utah.) After many years of working so hard in his career, his knees were too worn out to do flooring any longer, so Daniel changed to Truck driving. Despite a divorce, he embraced his new freedom in his big rig. He enjoyed the scenery on the road and the joy of being behind the wheel. He also used the opportunity of his travels to visit family anytime he could. After several years of driving and pushing his body, he retired early to his home in Alexander, ND where his middle son helped care for him while on mild disability from his years of hard work. Friendships and relationships with loved ones were everything to Dan. He enjoyed spending time with friends and working on projects in these last few years. He also treasured time with his sweet grand babies. He was so happy they all lived close and was such a proud "Popi". He loved seeing them grow and learn, and the way they reminded him of his own children at that age. Daniel is survived by his six children, Anndrea (Gregory) Diemart, Benjamin (Jessica) Fieseler, Christina Fieseler, Donald Fieseler, Elliott Fieseler, Gyneine Fieseler. Three grandchildren, Alivia Fieseler, Damian Fieseler and Rigel Fieseler. He is also survived by his sisters, Deborah (Charles) Layton, and Teresa (Stuart) Spendlove, and brothers Michael (Debi) Fieseler and Timothy Fieseler. Daniel was predeceased in death by his parents, grandparents and nephew Christopher Fieseler. Dan was well known and loved by the local communities. He loved making friends at the drive-up windows and watching local life from his porch. He will be missed greatly by all who knew him. While Dan left us far too soon, the impact he had on our lives and community will be felt for years to come. Funeral services will be held Friday February 9, 2024, at 11:00 am at the Leeds LDS Church in Leeds Utah. A visitation will be held from 9:30 a.m. – 10:30 a.m. prior to services at the same location.
