The Nieuw Nederland sailed on or after March 30, 1624.

Philippe du Trieux, a Walllon, was probably accompanied by his second wife Susanne
du Chesne, and his children Philippe and Marie. [Source: Certificate from Amsterdam's

Ghislain and Adrienne (Cuvellier) Vigne and their children Marie, Christine, and
Rachel were on either Niew Nederland or De Eendracht, as their son Jan would be
the first male child born in the new colony. [Source: 375th Anniversary of the
