dbpprop:abstract
  • Kiliaen van Rensselaer was a Dutch diamond and pearl merchant from Amsterdam who was one of the founders and Directors of the Dutch West India Company and was instrumental in the establishment of New Netherland. He was one of the first patroons and the only successful one, having founded the Manor of Rensselaerswyck in what is now mainly New York's Capital District. His estate lasted as a legal entity until the 1840s, having lived through Dutch and British colonial times, the American Revolution and eventually coming to an end during the Anti-Rent War. He was married twice and had at least eleven children, two of whom succeeded him as patroons of Rensselaerswyck. Van Rensselaer died sometime after 1642.
