(II) Hendrick Van Rensselaer, third child of Colonel Jeremias (the third Patroon) and Maria (Van Cortlandt) Van Rensselaer (q.v.) was born in Rensselaerswyck, October 23, 1667, died there, July 2, 1740. His eldest brother, Kiliaen, was the fourth Patroon, and was known as the "Second Lord of the Manor," being the second patroon to reside in and manage affairs of the colony. Besides Kiliaen, he had no other brother, and only two sisters, consequently to him came an important share in the vast landed property of the Manor. A settlement was made in New York City, November 1, 1695, with all those living in Holland in any way concerned through blood relationship with the estate in this country, and following that solution of the future status of the land, a division was made by Kiliaen, as the oldest child, by which he conveyed to Hendrick, on June 1, 1704, the Claverack patent and some one thousand five hundred acres on the east side of the Hudson river, in Columbia county, located opposite Albany. This was commonly called the "Lower Manor." The name Greenbush was derived from the Dutch, Greyne Bosch, a title applied to the woods covering this tract, by the first patroon when corresponding with his managers residing in the colony.
