  1.   Andries Rees and Celitje Jans arrived in New Amsterdam, NY before 1656. Andries came from Lippstadt on the River Lippe, Germany. He was a soldier with the Dutch West India Company. His wife, Celitje Jans, and at least one son, Willem, accompanied him. Andries was promoted to the rank of Cadet on 19 Jun 1657. He bought a house on Smits Street (now William Street) in 1672, and his name appears in the New Amsterdam records as late as 1674.
