Of Interest

Today's New York Times has a feature article called "The Van Dusens of New Amsterdam," complete with an interactive family tree. The article tells about a Dutch settler named Abraham, a miller who came to the New World in the 1620s from Duersen in northern Brabant and, fifteen generations later, has more than 200,000 descendants. Of interest to the Van Deusens of Hudson and everyone else curious about genealogy and our Dutch heritage.
