" Nathaniel Kalsey Suydam died at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Pitt, on 99th Street, Fort Hamilton. He was born at Centerport, L. I., nearly ninety years ago, and his father was the late John C. Suydam, a veteran of the war of 1812. For over forty years the deceased lived in Babylon, where he followed his calling as a farmer. Twenty-five years ago, when his wife died, he retired from active business, and nine years later he went to live with his daughter. Mr. Suydam was a wonderfully active man for his years. Until the day before his death he had not experienced a day's sickness in forty years. Yesterday morning he had a stroke of paralysis while sitting in his chair, and owing to his advanced years could not withstand it. He leaves two daughters, three sons, number of grandchildren, and four great-grandchildren. To-morrow morning the remains will be taken to Babylon, his old home, where the funeral services will take place."

"Stormville, Dutchess Co., N. Y. "Mr. Henry A. Stoutenburgh:

" Dear Sir, —While looking over the Fishkill Times yesterday, I saw a piece from you in regard to your visit to Fishkill last fall. I happened in the village the same time. Cousin James Dean sent for me to come in the bank. I met you there. He wanted to know what I knew in regard to the Van Nostrand family, which was very little, as I was taken by surprise and at the same time had considerable on my mind, as I am a poor lone widow with a farm. My mind was not on my ancestors. He said you had as far as George, who married Hilche Dorland, that was my great-great-grandfather. He bought and settled on the adjoining farm to mine—then the town of Fishkill, now it is the East Fishkill division—but what year I do not know as the family now owning it have not the old deed. George had two children, Joseph and Helena. Helena married late in life a widower, Abram Du Bois of Glenham. Joseph married Elizabeth Mead and staid on the father's farm. They had six children, George (my grandfather), Phebe Ann (Mr. Dean's mother), Sarah, Helen Maria, James (Mrs. F. R. Benjamin's father), and Catherine. After their father's death the farm was sold to settle the estate. The children remained in the town of Fishkill and East Fishkill except two, Catherine, who married Doctor John Clapp and moved first to Ohio, then different parts of the west; Helen Maria married an Adams and went to Ohio in 1835. 1836, they bought a farm of 86 acres for $600 in Berkshire township. I have the first letter she wrote home—is the reason I am able to give these dates. George (the second as I call him, was my grandfather) married Lavina Gildersleeve (who was of Long Island family). They had two children, both boys; the first

died in infancy, the second, Joseph Henry (was my father), born December ist, 1827, died February 29th, 1884. He married Mary Elizabeth Berry, June 9th, 1858. They had two children, Mary Lavina (that is myself), born May 28th, 1859, and Francis Seymour, born August 9th, 1861. He married Harriet N. Page of Syracuse, November 30th, 1897, and on October 5th, 1898, they had a son which I was allowed to name. It being the only one except my brother of the original Van Nostrand family, I thought it should be named after the first Van Nostrand we knew of, so I called it George and they added the Page to it. My brother lives in Syracuse, 203 Borden Avenue. He is a postal clerk running from Syracuse to New York. This is all I know in regard to the V. N's. Mr. John P. Lounsbury of Wap-pinger Falls has the V. N. bible, which has the dates, no doubt. I think I told you of its whereabouts. I have the watch that belonged to the first George, it has his initials on the back; also a chair made by him, even the seat is leather, his own tanning, and the tacks were made by him. I believe he was a blacksmith. It is as good as when made; the second George put rockers on it and it has always been in the living room, as it is very comfortable. The first George carried on blacksmithing with his farm, his son Joseph was only a farmer, the second George and Joseph (my grandfather and father) were both wagonmakers and first class. They also had a farm (small one). Father learned my brother the trade, which he worked at some before going in the mail service. A few years ago my brother received a letter from a Van Ostrand in South Haven, Michigan. I think his name was Stephen. He had a drug store in South Haven, and a son Robert in the post-office at that place. He was born near Kingston this State, but moved out there. When in this state they spelled their name the same as we with two n's. He was quite positive we were of the same family. He had his family tree and offered to send it to my brother, but we knew nothing before George, who married Hilche Borland; I have heard George was of a family of ten children and he came from Long Island to D. C.; so my brother did not send. If you are still collecting, this one at South Haven has his family tree, and perhaps 3^ou would know whether we were a branch of that

same tree. He wrote my brother it would be no disgrace to be a relative, a distant one at any rate. I am very sorry he has lost the letter. I do not know as any of this will interest you in any way. Should you at any time have a chance I would be pleased to know of my V. N. ancestors before George & Hilche, and should you have it in print please let me know. I was always very proud of my name Van Nostrand, although I gave it up before I was eighteen and my husband only lived three years. He had consumption, was sick about eighteen months. I still live on the farm and own it; the only burying since 1762 was after my husband's death. I bought his brother out and the old Van Nostrand homestead is the adjoining farm. I have told all I know and you will really be tired and need rest. After I saw your piece yesterday I thought perhaps the family at South Haven might be a branch. "Very truly,

"Mary L. Rogers, "Stormville,

JACOB JANSEN NOSTRANDT, emigrated to this country in 1638 (O'Callaghan's History of New Netherlands, vol. i., pp. 433, 441) and settled in the colony of Rensselaerwyck,where Jacob Jansz Van Nostrandt, on May 21, 1652, took the oath to the Patroon. The immediate locality was in the south eastern comer of the now Saratoga County, at a place called "Halve Maen," or Half Moon, as his daughter Jannetje on the marriage record stated that she was born there. He was by trade a brewer.

Munsell's History of Albany, Deacons account book, Dutch Church, Albany.—The book opens with an inventory of the investments of the surplus money in the hands of the consistory belonging to the poor.

" Aug. 16, 1651, Jacob Janse Van Norstrant, 72 guilders.

" Nov. 4, 1654. Jacob Jansen Van Norstrant, 300. guilders.

" Apl. 29, 1665. Jakop Jans van Norstran, 40. guilders.

1676, Jacob the Brewer was referred to again. Obtained a patent for land in Albany in 1652, as Jacob Janse Van Nostrandt the brewer, had a patent for a lot on the east corner of Beaver and South Pearl Street, 9 rods by 8^. This plot seems to have been divided into three smaller parcels, Nos. 1.2,3. I^ 1680, he conveyed No. i to Hendrick Gerritse Vander Meulen.

On the same block on Beaver Street, and at the other corner adjoining an alley on lots 5 and 6 was his brewery, which he sold in 1654, to Rutger Jacobsen, alias, Rut Van Woert, viz: Jacob Janse Van Noorstran's brewery and lot in Beaver Street, except the Horse Mill and brewers tools (nearly opposite the present Middle Dutch Church). In 1656 he was appointed inspector of beer barrels.

June 7, 1663, occurred the massacre at the Esopus, when Jacob the Brewer appears to have been present. In Aug. and Nov. of that year he was present at two baptisms in Kingston as getuigenis. In 1676 Jacob Jansen signed a petition of the Inhabitants of Esopus for a minister. The Dutch Church was founded in Beverwyck, or now Albany, about 1640, and was the only one north of Esopus having a permanent ministry, until after 1700, save that of Schenectady. Unfortunately the records of the Albany church previous to 1684 are missing, or some particulars of the baptism of his children might have been found. From the records of the Dutch Church of Kingston and New York he appears to have had issue:
