About this title

Synopsis

This volume describes the laws and ordinances from the colony of New Netherland from 1647 to 1658 and writs of appeal from 1658 to 1663. The laws reveal the legal thinking of the Dutch on subjects such as Indians, smuggling, crime and everyday issues including wages, fencing and land allocation.

About the Author

Charles T. Gehring is the director of the New Netherland Project with the New York State Library and the coeditor of numerous collections of original documents from Dutch New Netherland. William A. Starna is a professor emeritus of anthropology at the State University of New York College at Oneonta and a coeditor of "Iroquois Journey: An Anthropologist Remembers" (Nebraska 2007). Gehring and Starna coedited "A Journey into Mohawk and Oneida Country, 1634-1635: The Journal of Harmen Meyndertsz van den Bogaert "and (with Dean R. Snow) "In Mohawk Country: Early Narratives of a Native People," Diederik Willem Goedhuys is a native of the Netherlands and thirty year resident of South Africa. In addition to having knowledge of Dutch, Afrikaans, and English at his disposal, he also spent several months at the New Netherland Project in Albany, New York, where he had access to the best reference sources for the translation of a seventeenth-century publication.
