This is the first of a series of files on the baptisms at the Reformed Dutch Church of 
New Amsterdam. Accent marks on names have been left out for simplicity so that the data
 is acceptable to all computer platforms and no one will get those funny little squares or 
squiggles on the screen. Ufortunately many of the records I had concerning data prior 
to 1639 are missing, lost, or destroyed after all these years (it  is about 20 years ago that I
 copied most of them). So I only have six baptisms for 1639.

	The following is a  list of Ministers of this church, their births, deaths, and lengths
 of service:
	Jonas Michaelius, b. 1577, served from 1628 to about 1633
	Everadus Bogardus, b. ca. 1607, d. 1647, served from 1633 to 1647
	Johannes Backerus, served from 1647 to 1649
	Joannes Megapolensis, b. 1603, d. 1670, served from 1649 to 1670
	Samuel Drisius, b. 1620, d. 1673, served from 1652 to 1673
	Wilhelmus Van Nieuwenhuysen, b. 1645, d. 1681, served from 1671 to 1681
	Henricus Selyns, b. 1636, d. 1701, served 1682 to 1701
	Gualterus du Bois, b. 1666, d. 1751, served from 1699 to 1751
	Henricus Boel, b. 1689, d. 1754, served from 1713 to 1754
