    • The Abridged Compendium of American Genealogy, 1925: v. 1, p. 642: "Cornelis Van Tienhoven (d 1656) , from Holland in the "Soutberg" to New Amsterdam, 1633, sec. Dutch East India Co., schepen, m Rachel (d 1663) dau. Guillaume Vinjee"

      "Cornelis Van Tienhoven" Updated 25 January 1997. http://wave.park.wy.us/~fulker/1tienhov.html. 7/16/1999: Van Tienhoven arrived in New Amsterdam in 1633 as a Company accountant, working for Director Wooter Van Twiller until the latter's removal in 1638. With the arrival of Director Willem Kieft he was promoted to the title of Secretary and in many instances served as the Director's "right hand man." After Kieft's removal in 1647, Van Tienhoven continued as the Secretary to Peter Stuyvesant. In 1651 he was promoted to "receiver general" of the Company's revenues and domains (New Netherland then included the area from Albany to Delaware) and in the following year Stuyvesant made him Schout-Fiscaal (sheriff and attorney general) of New Amsterdam. Cornelis and his family lived on a "plantation" at Smits Vly (translation: Smith's Flat), on the East River shore north of Wall Street. His land was on the northeast border of his in-laws bouwerie. It stretched from Broadway to the East River, and from Maiden Lane north to about Fulton Street. His house was at 227-229 Pearl Street, near where it intersects Maiden Lane. The New York City street called Pine Street, in the Wall Street financial district, was even in the late 1600's still known as Tienhoven. ... By June 1656 he had been dismissed from office. Van Tienhoven's hat and cane were found floating in the river on November 18, 1656. He was presumed frowned, but there was reason to be suspicious that this was a planned disappearance. The "drowning" occurred while he was pending an appearance before a court of inquiry.

      Murray, J.E. Bunnell and allied families. 1990. p. 68: ... Cornelis Van Tienhoven, and while he served in an important position as Secretary to New Netherland, he was, nonetheless, a disliked man within the New Netherland Colony. He was married to Rachel Vigne ...
      p. 70: Cornelis Van Tienhoven was from Breuckelen, Utrecht, the son of Luyt Cornelisz Van Tienhoven and Jannetje Adriaensd de Haes. He arrived in New Netherland in 1633 aboard the Soutberg with Van Twiller, the second Director General of the Colony, to serve as company bookkeepers of wages. ...
      Van Tienhoven was later appointed Secretary to the colony. From the beginning the New Amsterdamers thought little of Van Tienhoven. They described him as a shifty, loud-mouth bonvivant. Although Van Tienhoven was unpopular in New Netherland, the distant company in Amsterdam was satisfied with his performance during Van Twiller's term and recommended him to Kieft as his secretary. Kieft awarded him with a considerable raise -- a monthly salary of thirty-six guilders, plus two hundred guilders a year for his board.
      Van Tienhoven was one of The Twelve selected by Kieft to serve as his council. ...
      p. 71: Cornelis Van Tienhoven purchased an otter-spoor farm from Jonkheer Van Curler for the sum of 2900 guilders. Van Tienhoven leased the property on 25 January 1639 to Claes Cornelissen Swits. Two span of horses, three cows, farming utensils and twelve schepels of grain in the ground were included in the lease, which was to run for six years, the rent payable in live stock and butter and one eighth of all the grain with which God shall bless the field. [Goodwin, Maud W. Dutch and English on the Hudson] ...
      The records at this point indicate that Van Tienhoven had become increasingly more dishonest and lecherous, and that van der Huygens, was described as a man whose only "science" was drinking. [Several pages of description about how Kieft and Van Tienhoven caused the 1642 war with the Indians]
      p. 75: The colonists knew Van Tienhoven as a shifty, deceitful, lying, man, always making promises he failed to keep. They could easily have forgiven him for being a shameless lecher and for running around like an Indian with nothing more than a patch in front. They could forgive him for lusting after prostitutes and chasing squaws. His wife was reputed to be a whore, and he, himself, was likened to a serpent. But no one in New Netherland would ever forgive him for leading Kieft into war with the Indians. however, even the enemies of the vulgar, thickset, unattractive man, with a red bloated face topped with a wart, had to admit he was intelligent, subtle and sharp witted.
      Stuyvesant considered Van Tienhoven a loyal supporter. ...
      p. 76: Van Tienhoven was sent to Holland to visit the King in 1650 in place of Stuyvesant, but his trip was unpleasant because he was accompanied by other who disliked him. Stuyvesant, too, was disliked by the colonists. They never forgave him for taxes and for retaining Van Tienhoven. ...
      In Holland, Van Tienhoven fought a lonely battle. Others of the council were testifying against him and the Director General. Leaving Holland on 5 May 1651, Van Tienhoven returned to New Amsterdam to find that a complaint had been sent ahead of him, and a new notary public, Dirck van Schelluyne, would take over in that capacity, plus a group had been sent to inquire into Van Tienhoven's part in the Indian wars.
      True to form, Van Tienhoven had found a girl friend in Holland and brought her back to New Netherland with him, ignoring the fact that he had a wife and three children in New Amsterdam. In Holland he had installed the girl, Elizabeth Jansen Croon van Hoogvelt, the daughter of a basketmaker, in an inn on the Overtoom, and then moved her to several other places when his landlords discovered he was a married man carrying on with a single girl. Cornelis promised to marry her after their arrival in New Netherland if she would return with him. On leaving Amsterdam he smuggled her on board and brought her to New Amsterdam. Waiting in the city was Van Tienhoven's wife, Rachel, and his three children, Lucas, Johannes, and Janneken. The girlfriend was somewhat dismayed to find she had been tricked into coming with him, not aware he was a married man. Elizabeth exposed him in court, and won the sympathy of the people.
      Stuyvesant and others indulged Van Tienhoven in his adventures and meanwhile promoted him to be Receiver General of the company's domains and revenues. Elizabeth nursed her broken heart and found another man to marry, while Van Tienhoven went on with his usual corrupt and shifty manipulations. The man
      p. 77: Elizabeth married was Jacobus (Jonkheer) Van Curler -- the man from whom Van Tienhoven had purchased the otter farm in 1639.
      In 1653, Van Tienhoven purchased from Jacob Haie two "large modern warehouses" at No. 33 and No. 35 Pearl Street in Manhattan. The eastern half of No. 35 was to be used as a dwelling house for the family.
      In 1653, Cornelis van Ruyven arrived in Manhattan to take over as Secretary to the colony. During the next three years he came upon one bit of evidence after another establishing the incompetancy [sic] and dishonestly [sic] of Van Tienhoven. It appears Van Tienhoven had used his office to bend and twist the rules to favor his friends.
      While Van Tienhoven was now without his position as Secretary, he soon found his way into another appointment. That same year, the schout, Van Dyck, was found to be undermining the director general, and was exposed by Van Tienhoven, who then in turn, inherited his position as schout-fiscal as well. The burgomaster and schepens were aghast at the appointment and presented a petition to Heeren XIX to get rid of Van Tienhoven as schout. Surprisingly the Lords Directors in Amsterdam agreed to the move and allowed the people to choose their own schout.
      Van Tienhoven, of course, retained his other positions. By this time, his brother, Adriaen Van Tienhoven, had appeared on the scene. Adriaen was clerk of the court on the South River. When Swedish settlers in the area of the Delaware River began to be a threat to the Dutch, the Dutch put up their own fort on the river in the event it was needed. Adriaen was used as a go-between in talking with the settlers. When Adriaen complained to the Dutch that the fort contained no ammunition, he was told to barter with beavers rather than power.
      In spite of the fact that orders from Holland were such that Van Tienhoven was to be replaced as schout, as late as 1655 he was still continuing in that office. Perhaps Van Tienhoven retained his favor with the States General in Holland because he was adept at writing pieces of literature which promoted more and more settlers to arrive in New Amsterdam, a move pleasing to the Council who were anxious that the new colony should grow and succeed.
      [Another description of attack by Indians; Van Tienhoven is inept and causes the capture of many innocent women and children, loss of 600 head of cattle, etc. Known as the Peach War. Settlers called for Van Tienhoven's death.]
      p. 78: By the time the news reached Holland, Van Tienhoven was being blamed for the retaliation. The message was sent on to Heeren XIX and finally he sent a letter to Stuyvesant asking that Cornelis Van Tienhoven be replaced as schout. ...
      In 1656, Van Tienhoven was ordered dismissed from the services of the company by the directors. Stuyvesant was forbidden to ever again employ Cornelis or his brother, Adriaen, who by now had been detected in fraud as Receiver General.
      Cornelis Van Tienhoven was faced with a court of inquiry, but he disappeared before his appointed time. On 18 November 1656 his hat and cane were found floating in the river. Those who knew him best could not believe that the loud-mouthed and lustful official had taken his own life. But as far as the history of the colony was concerned, he had "extinguished himself in the waters of the Hudson River...." ...
      In 1655, Adrienne Culvellier Vigne Damen died, and her heirs sold to Anthony Moore, a burgher of New Amsterdam, a brewery and lot, situated on Maiden Lane. A dispute arose as to the partition of her property, and it was not settled until 1660. ...

      Parry, William J. "A Note on the pedigree of Cornelis van Tienhoven, Secretary of New Netherland." In New Netherland connections, v. 3, no. 3, July - Sept. 1998, pp. [59]-63. p. [59]: Adriaen van Tienhoven was born about 1618. In a declaration dated 11 June 1654
      p. 60: he stated that he was "aged 36 years, a native of Breuckelen" (Edmund B. O'Callaghan and Berthold Fernow, eds., Documents Relative to the Colonial History of the State of New York, v. 1, p. 602; Pennsylvania Archives, second series, v. 5, pp. 254-255). This is the only clue to the origins of this family. [footnote: There are two small villages called Tienhoven in the Netherlands. One is located near Breukelen in Utrecht, the other near Vianen in South Holland (Marcel Kemp, personal communication).] Adriaen van Tienhoven had no known wife or children; he absconded to Barbados in 1657 (Edmund B. O'Callaghan, History of New Netherland, v. 2, p. 322).
      Aefje van Tienhoven was probably born between 1622-1628, as her youngest child was born in 1668. She married Pieter Stoutenburgh (c. 1612-1699) on 24 July 1649 (Collections of the New York Genealogical and Biographical Society, v. 9, Marriages from 1639 to 1801 in the Reformed Dutch Church, New York, p. 15). They were ancestors of President Theodore Roosevelt (Gary Boyd Roberts, Ancestors of American Presidents, 1995 edition, pp. 55-59).
      In order to identify the parents of these three van Tienhoven siblings, we must turn to records in the Netherlands. The first information was published by William J. Hoffman in 1953, in an article entitled "Random Notes Concerning Settlers of Dutch Descent" (The American Genealogist, v. 29, p. 70). The "notes" quoted in this article were originally compiled from notarial archives by Nicolaas de Roever, archivist of Amsterdam, who died in 1893. Hoffman says:
      "From the de Roever notes we learn the (until now unknown) parents of the famous Secretary of New Netherland, Cornelis van Tienhoven.... In a paper passed before Not. J. v.d. Ven at Amsterdam, 7 July 1650, Cornelis signed with his full name: Cornelis Luycasz van Tienhoven, and in another paper of 10 Mar. 1651 before Not. H. Schaeff, at Amsterdam, his parents are mentioned as the late Luyt Cornelisz van Tienhoven and his widow Jannetje Adriaensd. de Haes. These two papers therefore establish the Secretary's parentage."
      De Roever's notes were subsequently edited and enlarged by the late Dr. Simon Hart for his unpublished "Nord Amerika Chronologie." Pim Nieuwenhuis kindly obtained and translated Hart's abstracts of these two papers, which provide some additional details.
      Not. J. van de Ven, 1094/ fo. 312, dd. 7 July 1650: "Cornelis Lucass van Tienhoven, secretary to the Director and Council in New Netherland, acknowledges to have been paid by Vincent Lievens merchant in Amsterdam, of an obligation which itself was lost."
      Not H. Schaef, 1346/ fo. 13v, dd. 10 March 1651:
      p. 61: "Cornelis Schoonderwoert from Utrecht as having 'transport' from Jannetgen Adriaensdr. de Haes, widow of Luyt Corneliss van Tienhoven, living in Utrecht, mother of Cornelis van Tienhoven secretary in New Netherland, declares to have undone the arrest put in August or September 1650 on the money that Tryntje van Scheerenburg, widow of Henrick Jansz who was freeman and tailor in New Netherland from the West India Company."
      In addition to establishing that Cornelis van Tienhoven's parents were named Luyt (or Lucas?) Cornelisz and Jannetje Adriaens, the patronymics indicate that his grandfathers were named Cornelis and Adriaen. In typical Dutch fashion, the Secretary and his brother were names for their grandfathers. Perhaps Aefje (or Aefgen) was named for a grandmother.
      This naming pattern continued in the next generation, as Cornelis van Tienhoven named his first two children Jannetje and Lucas, after their paternal grandparents. One of the witnesses to the baptism of Jannetje, on 10 June 1646, was Jannetje Adriaens, the Secretary's mother (Collections of the New York Genealogical and Biographical Society, v. 2, Baptisms from 1639 to 1730 in the Reformed Dutch Church, New York, p. 20). This was probably by proxy, as there is no other record of Jannetje Adriaens in New Netherland. Aefje (van Tienhoven) Stoutenburgh likewise followed the same naming patter, naming her second surviving daughter Jannetje, and her second son Lucas, after their maternal grandparents
      The search for further information in the Netherlands is hampered by the lack of records from Breukelen. There are no surviving church records before 1675. There are a few civil records from 1538-1556 and 1616-1621, but no records of any description survive from Breukelen for the period 1622-1675. There are no records from the village of Tienhoven before 1695.
      The records from the City of Utrecht are more complete. Marcel S.F. Kemp has been studying these records for many years and generously provided the following information from his data cards:
      "There are not very many Van Tienhovens mentioned in Utrecht around 1600...."
      "The name Lucas is at that time a bit rare in Utrecht, but Luyt or Ludolf is certainly a name in this region. I think that there is some difference between Luyt/Ludolf and Lucas, Ludolf/Luyt being a typical Old Dutch name and Lucas being a Biblical name...."
      p. 62: "A search for the name Luyt yielded the following record: 24 March 1632 a LUYT CORNELISZ from Breukelen, 42 years old, made a statement about a marriage of Sophia Willem Claesdr from Breuckeleveen and Cornelis Adriaensz living in Loenersloot (Archive City Utrecht II, 174). I think this is our man!"
      "I also found persons with the surname HAES in Breukelen (not DE Haes): 14 June 1651 there was an Adriaen Jansz Haes, 'waersman' in Breukelen, married with a Marietje Crijnen (State Archives Utrecht, Hof van Utrecht 236-1), and 6 March 1623 there was a Sweer Jans Haes who made a voyage to East India, according to the attestation of several persons from Breukelen (Archive City Utrecht II, 174)." ...
      Finally, a crucial record was discovered and translated by Pim Nieuwenhuis in the Amsterdam notarial archives. This document was previously unknown and has never been published; it is given here in full:
      Not. Fred. van Barchem, 318/ fo. 67, dd. 31 Jan. 1639: "Appeared before me Frederick van Barchem, notary public: Sr. Andries Hudden, inhabitant of this city of Amsterdam and declared that on the 28th of April 1638 at the Fort Amsterdam in New Netherland to have written and passed in quality of secretary, an instrument of procuration which is added to this under my Notary's seal, in which Cornelis van Tienhoven constitutes Adriaen Jansz Haes to request and receive the inheritance of Cornelis Cornelisz his grandfather and in such way that aforesaid document is passed legally."
      Unfortunately, the attached power of attorney was not copied in the protocol, nor was it recorded in New Netherland. Still, this is a key record, since it shows that Cornelis van Tienhoven's paternal grandfather was named Cornelis Cornelisz, and he died about 1637. Perhaps Luyt Cornelisz had died before his father, since he is not mentioned. Adriaen Jansz Haes was certainly a close relative (probably Cornelis van Tienhoven's mother's brother's son), and undoubtedly the same
      p. 63: Adriaen Jansz Haes who was living in Breukelen in 1651. This supports Marcel Kemp's speculation that Cornelis van Tienhoven's maternal grandfather also may have been named Adriaen Jansz.
      Here is a summary of what we now know about the pedigree of Cornelis van Tienhoven:
      Generation 1. Cornelis Cornelisz van Tienhoven. Died about 1637.
      Generation 2. Luyt Cornelisz van Tienhoven. Born about 1589, lived in Breukelen, Utrecht Province. He was living in 1632, and died sometime before 1649, possibly before 1638. He married Jannetje Adriaens Haes, who was living in the City of Utrecht in 1651. She may have been the daughter of Adriaen Jansz, who was Secretary in Breukelen about 1590.
      Generation 3. The known children of Luyt Cornelisz and Jannetgen Adriaens, born in Breukelen, were: Cornelis van Tienhoven, born say 1612; Adriaen van Tienhoven, born about 1618; and Aefje van Tienhoven, born say 1625, married Pieter Stoutenburgh in 1649.
