"Richard Stout, the first name in America was born in Notinghamshire, in Old England, and his father's name was John. The said Richard, when quite young paid his addresses to a young woman that his father thought below his rank, upon which account some unpleasant conversation happened between the father and the son, on account of which, the said Richard left his father's house, and in a few days engaged aboard a ship of war, where he served about seven years, after which time he got a discharge at New Amsterdam, now called New York, in America. The man and woman from whom the whole race of Stouts descended, got into the city of New Amsterdam, where they became acquainted with each other and were married. And not withstanding, it may be thought by some, that they conducted themselves with more fortitude than prudence, they immediately crossed the bay and settled in the above said Middletown, where the said Penelope had lost her husband by the Indians and had been so severely wounded herself. There was at that time but six families in the settlement, including their own (which was in the year 1648), where they continued until they became rich in prosperity and rich in children."Richard appears to have come to New Amsterdam about 1640.

7281. Penelop VANPRINCIN
4113. Penelope VAN PRINCISS was born in 1602. She was Shipwreck in 1620 in Sandy Hook, New Jersey. Penelope survived a shipwreck at Sandy Hook, New Jersey, the first shipwreck on record in 1620. Penelope's husband a young Dutchman who had been sick most of the voyage, he was taken so bad after landing, that he could not travel. The other passengers being afraid of the Indians, would not stay till he recovered, but made what haste they could to New-Amsterdam; his wife however would not leave him. The Indians came down to the water side, discovered them on the beach, and hastened to the spot, soon killed Penelope's husband, and cut and mangled her in such a manner that they left her for dead. Penelope crawled into a hollow tree, lived in it mostly for several days, subsisting in part by eating excrescences that grew from it. An old Indian found Penelope and nurse her back to health. , as they thought, but soon after the Indians were gone, a certain Penelope Van Princes, whose husband the Indians had killed, found herself possessed of strength enough to creep of a hollow tree, where she remained some days. An Indian happening to come that way, whose dog coming to the tree, occasioned him to examine the inside of the tree, where he found the said Penelope in a forlorn, distressed condition. She was bruised very severely about the head, and her bowels protruded from a cut across her abdomen, she kept them in with her hand. She had been in this fearful condition seven days when the Indian found her. In his compassion he took her out of the tree and carried her to his wigwam where he treated her kindly and healed her wounds, and in a short time conveyed her in his canoe to New Amsterdam, where he sold her to the Dutch, who then owned that city,
Penelope VAN PRINCIN and her first husband sailed from Amsterdam on a Dutch ship, headed for New Amsterdam, now New York. But off the coast of New Jersey the ship wrecked. All managed to disembark but Penelope's husband who had been sick the whole journey and was too ill to travel. Everyone was fearful of an Indian attack so they left him and promised to send help. Penelope refused to leave her husband alone on the beach. Soon a band of Indians found them there. They promply killed the man. Then they cut , mangled and partially scalped the woman in such a manner that they left her for dead. She had strength enough to crawl to some logs not far distant and getting into a hollow one stayed within it for several days, subsisting in part by eating the mushrooms that grew from it. The Indians had left some fire on the shore which she kept together for warmth. Penelope survived alone and gravely wounded for eight days. At that time two Indians appeared and started discussing her fate. The younger Indian wanted to finish her off but the older Indian wrapped her in a blanket, tossed her over his shoulder and took her to his wigwam where he nursed her back to health. After some time the Dutch of New Amsterdam, hearing of a white woman among the Indians, concluded who it must be and some of them came to her relief. She was given the choice of staying with the Indians or returning to the white people. She chose to return but remained friends with the old Indian for many years to come. On one occasion he came to see her and after some time told her of an impending Indian attack on her people. She told her husband but he did not want to believe her. She said that her Indian friend had never lied to her so she gathered her children and found a canoe the Indian had left for her. Richard then considered what she had told him and gathered together all of the neighbors. They set up guard and about midnight heard the dismal war hoop, presently they come upon a company of Indians. They told the indians that if they persisted in their bloody designs, they would sell their lives very dearly. Their arguments prevailed, the Indians desisted, and entered into a league of peace, which was kept without violation for many years. From this woman, thus remarkably saved, with her scars visible, through a long life, is descended a numerous posterity of the name Stout. Penelope went on to have a total of 10 children, seven sons and three daughters. She lived to reach the age of 110 with more that 500 descendants.
7284. Phillippe du TRIEUX
Philippe de Trieux became engaged to Jacquemyne Noiret on 11 Apr 1615 and they married 10 May 1615. She was from Lisle, according to the marriage register of the Walloon church in Amsterdam. Philippe, age 27, had lived on the "Wale pad" or Walloon Avenue for 3/4 of a year, and was a bachelor. Jacquemyne, born at Ryssel, age 22, had lived on the Wale pad for 12 years. Their son Philippe was baptized 3 Jan 1616 with Arnoult Noiret (her father) and Jaspar du Trieux (of whom there is no other record) present. There is also record of "Jacquemyne, widow of Philippe du Trieux" transferring in 1601 from the Walloon Church of Norwich to that of Leyden. Daughter Marye was baptized in Amsterdam 5 Apr 1617. The family was received into the Leyden church in Oct 1617, then went back to Amsterdam in Dec 1617. The 2nd son named Philippe was baptized in Amsterdam 10 Feb 1619; daughter Madeleine was baptized in Amsterdam 9 Feb 1620.
Philippe became engaged to Susanna on 17 Jul 1621 and they married in Amsterdam 30 Aug 1621. Philippe's 5th child, Gerome, was baptized 20 Oct 1623 at the Walloon Church of Amsterdam. The family left for New Netherlands by ship on 30 Mar 1624 and arrived May or June 1624."He was a dresser of plush or mock velvet, and a Walloon ... From the records of the Walloon church at Leyden, Holland, we find that on 15 Aug 1617, Philippe and Jaquemyne became members. This church had been established by ... French speaking Protestants who in the 16th century were driven by religious persecution from their homes...."
quoting the Archives of Amsterdam: "On 17 Jul 1621 appeared before the Commissaries of matters concerning marriages, Philippe Dutrieux of Roby aged 34 and living in the Runtstreat, worsted dyer, widower of Jacquemyne Noiret, to Susanna du Chesne, of Sedan aged 20 years, orphan, assisted by Jean Pinson her cousin, ..." It looks like the 2nd wife was a cousin of the first.
"Philippe and Susanne received a certificate of transfer - "an attestation" - from the church at Leyden "as pour Westinde" on 9 Mar 1624 and came to America aboard the "New Netherland" in its voyage from Amsterdam to New Amsterdam arriving in May or June of that year. He was among that company of Walloons who came in that year under the leadership of Jesse de Foreest, and have the honor of being the first citizens of what is now New York. There are no records of Philippe for the next 13 - 14 years, although his children were born during that period, and he most certainly was one of the first to build upon the Bever Graft, or the modern Beaver Street.
"In 1638 was appointed Court Messenger, or Marshall, by Gov. Kieft, and on 22 May 1640 received a patent for the land adjoining Sec. Van Tien Hoven's farm in Smith's Valley, Manhattan Island, on which it appears he resided. On a map of New Amsterdam as it was abt 1644 ... will be seen a large tract of land on the east of the island marked "land of Philip de Truye." This was situated in what was then known as "Smit's Vly" and in 1914 was partly occupied by the Fulton Market. Philippe was one of the few early settlers whose land can be readily located, and although he did not take out a patent for it until 1640 he doubtless had owned it long before.
"Philippe died between 23 Jul 1649 when Cornelius Segersen of Renselaerswyck granted power of attorney to `Philip de Truy', and 8 Sep 1653 when the following appears in the Records of New Amsterdam (vol 1 p114): `Carel Van Brugge, pltf. vs Isaac d'Foreest, deft. Pltf. as venduemaster of the personal estate of Pieter Cornelisen, mill-wright, demands payment of fl. 59.8 for goods purchased at public vendue. Deft. acknowledges having purchased the goods, but says, in the name of Philip d'Truy's widow, that her son Philip (who was also murdered) had earned fl. 100 monthly wages of Pieter C., dec'd, which are still due him. Deft. is ordered to prove at the next Court day his demand against the estate of the abv-ment'd P.C. dec'd.'
"From the above we learn that Philippe du Trieux was dead, and that his son Philippe had been murdered (probably by Indians), and it is possible that the father, Philippe, may have also been murdered. On 23 Oct 1654 `Susanne de Scheeve, widow of Philippe De Truwe, late Court messenger at New Amsterdam, confers power of attorney upon her son-in-law Isaack de ---, burgher and free trader at New Amsterdam.'"
