| 9908 | New Evidence on Hans Mansson The Gloucester County Historical Society has scored another historical "scoop" with the publication, in its June 1991 issue, of an article on the origins of Hans Mansson, progenitor of the Steelman family in America. The earliest published account on Hans Mansson in America was in 1879 when Dr. Gregory B. Keen (later a co-founder of the Swedish Colonial Society) wrote a note about the third (1641) Swedish expedition to New Sweden. His account, in volume 3 of the Pennsylvania Magazine of History & Biography, noted that Hans Mansson, a member of this voyage, came from Skara. He also translated C.T. Odhner's 1876 work, 'The Founding of New Sweden, 1637-1642," which reported that shortly before the 1641 voyage the governor of the Swedish province of Skaraborg was directed to permit a trooper, condemned for having cut down six apple trees and two cherry trees in the monastery at Vernhem, Vastragotland, to choose between the punishment of hanging or embarking for New Sweden. In Dr. Keen's opinion, it was "most likely" that this trooper was Hans Mansson. Later research cast doubt on Dr. Keen's opinion. The full text of the letter, as translated by Dr. Amandus Johnson, showed that the trooper had a wife and child. Yet Hans Mansson was obviously unmarried when, in 1654, he married Ella Stille, the widow of Peter Jochimsson. Two Steelman descendants, Rev. Robert B. Steelman (a Methodist minister in Penns Grove, Salem County, NJ) and his brother James F. Steelman (a retired U.S. Army officer and government employee of Mays Landing, Atlantic County, NJ), have now put an end to the mystery. Their article, "A Riddle Resolved: Hans M:nsson Was The Swedish Trooper in 1641," published in the June 1991 bulletin, provides the missing documentary proof. That proof, doggedly tracked down by James F. Steelman in the Landsarkivet in Gothenburg is the trial record of May 31, 1641, which reads in revelant part: 'The same day a young trooper called Hans Mansson from Hanaskede was brought before the court who had last autumn entered the Crown's garden at the monastery of Vamhem and there ruined 6 of the best apple-trees and 2 of the best cherry-trees which were tp be found in the garden in order to obtain material for some mane combs. Then was read to him the declaration and resolution of the Royal Regency, dated Stockholm, 13th April, and received by the honorable Governor on the 16th, saying that the said Hans Mansson should decide whether he was willing with wife and children to sail upon the Crown’s ship from Gothenburg to New Sweden, or to hang. He chose the voyage and was consequently imprisoned in order to be taken to Gothenburg.” The full article is four pages long and is recommended as an outstanding piece of scholarship. Copies may be obtained from the Gloucester Historical Society, P.O. Box 409, Woodbury NJ 08096, for $1.50 (postage included).

| 9912 | New Sweden Forefathers: Peter Larsson Cock (Cox) Peter Larsson was given his surname Kock, "cook" in Swedish, because he served in this capacity in 1641 when he was sent to New Sweden from Stockholm on the ship Charitas. The name Kock evolved into Cock, and among his descendants finally became Cox. Born in 1610 in Bangsta, a hamlet in Turinge parish, Sodermanland (now Stockholm fan), Sweden, Peter Larsson Cock was the eldest of six sons of Lars Persson. Before departing for New Sweden, he had been an imprisoned soldier at Smedjegarden in Stockholm. The reason for his imprisonment is not known. Also on board the Charitas when it left Stockholm was the family of Mans Svensson Lorn from Roslagen, including Mans' daughter Margaret, then about 15 years old. Early in 1643, she married Peter Cock in what probably was the first marriage performed in New Sweden. In New Sweden, Peter Cock soon became a freeman and played a prominent role in the colony. In July 1651 he was an interpreter for Governor Printz in negotiations with the Indians confirming the Swedish claims to the lands on which the Dutch had built their Fort Casimir (New Castle, Del.) Under Governor Rising, he served on the New Sweden court. After the surrender of New Sweden in 1655, Cock continued to serve as a justice for the up-river Swedes in present Pennsylvania until succeeded by his eldest son, Captain Lasse Cock, in 1680. He owned an extensive plantation which he called "Kipha," located on "Peter Cock's Island"-actually two islands in the Schuylkill that would later be known as Fisher's Island and Carpenter's Island. Peter Cock and his wife Margaret had 13 children, 12 of whom grew to adulthood. married and had children of their own. The surviving children were: I. Lars (Lasse) Cock, born March 21, 1646, died October 1699, who married Martha Ashman (English), May 15, 1669. 2. Eric Cock, born c. 1650, died August 170 I , who married Elizabeth (daughter of Olof Philipsson) c. 1673. 3.

Mans Cock, born c. 1654, died after 1720, who married Gunilla (daughter of Jonas Nilsson), c. 1679. 5. john Cock, born 1656, died December 1713, who married Brigitta (daughter of Nils Larsson Frande or Friend) c. 1678. 6. Peter Cock, born 1658, died May 1708, who married Helena (daughter of Israel Ackesson Helm} c. 1681. 7.

Maria, born 1661, died after 1717, who married Andrew Rambo (son of Peter Rambo) c. 1684. • 9. Gabriel, born 1663, died after 1714, who married Maria (daughter of Nils Larsson Frande) c. 1686. 10. Brigitta, born 1665, died 1726, who married John Rambo (son of Peter Rambo) c. 1686. 11. Margaret, born 1667, died 1701, who married [ l] Robert Longshore (an English surveyor) c. 1687 and [2] Thomasjenner (an English tailor) c. 1691. 12. Catherine, born 1669, died 1748, who married Bengt Bengtsson (son of Anders Bengtsson) c. 1691. 3 Through these 12 children, Peter and Margaret Cock had over 100 grandchildren. Peter Cock died November 10, 1687 at the age of 77. His widow, Margaret Cock, was also 77 when she was buried at Gloria Dei on February 13, 1703.

| 9915 | news article about monument marking Steelman's cabin This Morning's Comment by Henry W. Shoemaker The Two Battles Of Bull Run; The Field Is Admirably Marked Thanks To Efficient Virginia Historical Commission. It has been asserted in many quarters if Dr. Albert Cook Myers had been continued as secretary of the Pennsylvania Historical Commission the historic sites of Pennsylvania would be as well marked as those of Virginia, the model of its kind. Of late the warlike, peppery little Quaker historian has appeared in the limelight again to protest against the moving of the John Hanson Steelman monument, by the present Historical Commission, stating with emphasis the marker should remain where the heroic Swedish pathfinder's cabin stood, and not on a broad highway miles away.

| 9921 | Newspaper clippings giving historical and genealogical sketches of Chester, Pennsylvania families. Sketches of Chester - No.56. "The new Ridley public school house stands on the next lot but one, west of the old Plummer meeting house, and opposite the properties of William M. Maddock and Miles M. Stille. The later is the descendent of an old Swedish family, who were among the earliest settlers in this vicinity. Olof Stille, whose passport or certificate of character bears date Dec.2, 1634, came from the lordship of Penningby and Nyanes, in the Ducky of Lodermania, about 30 miles south of Stockholm, in Sweden; he resided on and owned the land between Ridley and Crum creeks. On Lindstron's MS. map, this tract is designated as "Stillen's Land, le pays de Stillen," and Ridley creek is called, "Ogle Stillen's Kill. The Indians called it Techorassi or Teguirasi. Olf Stille was one of the principal men in the Swedish colony, having been deputed by Governor Printz, as the bearer of the official protest made by the Swedes to the Dutch Governor, against the encroachments of the West India Company on the rights of the Swedish Crown on the Delaware. In 1658, after the Dutch took possession of the country, he was one of the four commissioners or magistrates appointed to administer justice among the inhabitants, and thus became a Judge of the first court of which history gives us any information, held among the Europeans on the banks of the Delaware. He was also employed in various negotiations with the neighboring colonists and with the Indians, by whom he was styled, "The man with the black beard." He died about the year 1666. His son John Stille, was born near Tinicum, in the year 1640, and died April 21, 1722, aged about 76 years, and was buried in the graveyard of the Swedes' church at Wicacao, where his tombstone still remains. He was one of the original trustees of that church and the pastor in recording his death adds: "He lived a goodly life in this world." | Stille, Olof Persson (I5687)

| 9925 | Next adjoining the house of Pieter Andriessen upon the east, in a garden of nearly seventy-five feet front upon Hoogh Straet, stood at the time of our survey the dwellinghouse of Jacob van Couwenhoven, previously alluded to,1 which was sold in the following year to Nicholas de Meyer. This building was of stone, and of much greater pretensions than most of its neighbors, for at its sale to De Meyer, which was at public auction, it was already mortgaged for about 3500 guilders, or $1400 of the present currency; it stood upon the site of the present buildings, No. 47, and a part of No. 45 Stone Street. This house was occupied as a residence for more than thirty years by Nicholas de Meyer. He was from Hamburg, then claimed to be under the jurisdiction of the Duchy of Holstein, from which cause he was occasionally called by the Dutch of New Amsterdam, Nicolaas van Holsteyn. The ordinary appellation of De Meyer (that is, the “steward” or “farmer”) seems, however, to have been preferred by Nicholas and his descendants, and became the family name. Nicholas had married, in 1655, Luda, or Lydia, daughter of the ex-fiscal, or prosecutor, Hendrick van Dyke; he became, in later years, a man of considerable prominence in the city, having been one of the magistrates in 1664, at the time of the surrender to the English. Afterwards, in 1676, he was mayor of the city. He was a man of active business interests and took a considerable part in developing the settlement of the village of Haerlem, where he had purchased various parcels of land amounting to between sixty and seventy acres in extent ; he also owned a wind-mill near the intersection of the present Chatham and Duane streets, and a brewery in the Smits YJy, or modern Pearl Street, near Platt Street. After the death of Nicholas de Meyer, in 1690, the property upon Stone Street was divided, and the original homestead passed to his daughter Anna Catrina, wife of Jan Willemsen Noering. The eldest son of Nicholas, Wilhelmus or William de Meyer, became a prominent citizen of Esopus and Kingston in the present county of Ulster. As we advance along the road, or “High Street,” farther eastwards from the fort, the plots granted to settlers become larger, for they were given at a time when there was no immediate likelihood of a demand for the land for the construction of dwellings. In this way, Wessell Evertsen, the next neighbor to Van Couwenhoven and to Nicholas de Meyer, obtained in 1646 the grant of a parcel of land with a frontage of nearly two hundred and twenty-five feet along the road, and extending back to the Slyck Steegh. Evertsen came from the old town of Naerden, upon the south coast of the Zuyder Zee, some thirteen or fourteen miles east of Amsterdam, — an interesting place, with many a tradition of Spanish atrocities perpetrated here in the war for independence; a picturesque spot, too, where the flat western coast of the Zuyder Zee, and the interminable dyked meadows in the direction of Amsterdam, give place to the heights of Gooiland; and where, to the observer gazing southeastward, New Amsterdam and its people, page 170-172 https://archive.org/details/newamsterdamitsp1902inne/page/172/mode/2up?q=couwenhoven | Van Couwenhoven, Jacob Wolphertsen (I5788)
