Crossroads of Rockland History: The Blauvelts

Blauvelt Family History
The program originally aired on October 18, 2021. To listen, click here.

Ralph Blauvelt joins Clare Sheridan to speak about his new book, Four Hundred Years in America: 17th Century Immigrant Ancestors. This is the story of the first immigrant settlers in New Netherland, some of whom are Blauvelt’s own ancestors. Their lives are reconstructed from the documents they left behind, and their stories are those of strangers in a strange land trying to build a new life.
