Consequently, the group had relatively a little bit more freedom than if they had remained in the hands of the Portuguese. (Of course, the Netherlands later played a large and obscure role in slavery.)

They were bycatch from Zeeuwse hijackers who had raided a Portuguese ship. In the early period, the Netherlands had not yet properly figured out how to deal with enslaved people, and given the small group of colonials, there had to be mutual cooperation to survive.

Farming began on the land until misunderstandings with the tribes over land ownership resulted in violent conflicts until every one of the Dutch settlers had been massacred. The area that became Southern Delaware was left largely abandoned for nearly twenty years.

Commander Peter Heyes brought a colony of 30 settlers to Delaware Bay in April of 1631. Heyes landed his people a few miles above Cape Henlopen, built a brick house and called the area Swaanendael. It included a tract of land twelve miles square that he had purchased from the local tribes.

*Still looking for descendents of the area called New Netherland!

In 1609 Henry Hudson mapped (by order of the Dutch) for the first time the Delaware bay and called it the “Zuidrivier’

Today in NRC Magazine a prepublication of the exhibition research Mad about je boy of #MarloesHeineke en mij!

The exhibition in progress is about love, lust, intimacy, and the relation between the woman (as photographer) and the man. It is also about aging, vulnerability and caring for each other
