He was baptized in Herwynen, Gelderland, Holland. REFNRoosa Chart Ulster County Genealogical Society Roosa Family Chart Excerpt f om AN ARMORY OF AMERICAN FAMILIES of DUTCH DESCENT... ROOSA - In the article dealing with the van Gaesbeck family, there was a genealogical and heraldic manucript of the 18th century that was authored by Gysbert Van Ryckhuysen of Leide. This city official was a native of Herwynen, province of Gelderland, and his parents were Arien Van Ryckhuysen and Jenneke Ariens Roosa. It's obvious that Gysbert would have been interested in the genealogy of his mother's family, and among his collections there are notes on the branch of Roosa family to which his mother belonged. The notes start with Aeldert Roosa who lived at Herwynen in the first half of the seventeenth century. His Christian name was Aeldert, the
fact that he was a resident of Herwynen and that, in addition, his son, Guert, married in 1638 to Engeltie Ariens De Jongh, the daughter of Burgomaster Arien De Jongh, is incontestable proof that he was a very close relative of the progenitor of the American family of Aeldert Hymanse Roosa (born 1621) from Herwyne, who with his wife, Wyntjie Ariens de Jongh, a sister of the above Engeltie, arrived on these shores in 1660. It would seem that the American settler's father, Heyman Roosa, may have been a brother of Aeldert Roosa. The genealogy mentions a somewhat mythical descent for the family, namely that they had fled on account of religious persecutions from the town of Roosa in Spain. (Modern day map
indicates a town of Reus in the provinvce of Tarragona near the eastern coast of the Mediterranean Sea, about 120 south of France). The pedigree originated at a time when the majority of the Dutch families preferred a descent from foreign lands rather than acknowleding their less illustrious hard-working Dutch forebears who by their industry had made their more opulent descendents ancestor-conscious. Even Van Rychhuysen doubted the truth of these statements and suggested that it was a family, possibly originally named De Roos, which had lived many generations at Herwynen. The genealogy gives the arms of the family, three ropes - Gules. No crest is mentioned. These arms are, therefore, those of the American family. Aldert arrived in America on the ship called De Bonte Koe (The Spotted Cow) about April 15, 1660 with his wife and eight children ages 17,15,14,9,8,7,4, and 2 years old. Other Dutch passengers on the ship with them were Roe(?) of Swartwout, farmer, Cornelius Jacobse Van Leeuwen in the employ of Swartwout, Arien Huybertse in Swartwout's employ. Allard, or Aldert, Heymanse Roosa, the third member of the bench of Schepens in Wiltwyck, came out in May 1660, in the company of his wife, Wyntje Allard, and 8 children. He emigrated from Harwyne(?), Gelderland, where he left a large family of honest kinfolk. On his arrival to New Amsterdam, he secured a passage for himself and his family for Esopus and took up his home in Wiltwyck. When 2 years later a new village was laid out, he removed there, and from that time to his death resided at Hurley. *Hurley was granted a patent on October 19, 1708. The patentees of this tract were Cornelius Kool, Adrien Garretsie, Matthew Ten Eyck, Jacobus DuBois, Johannes Schepmoes, Roelof Swartwout, Cornelius Lammerse, Peter Petersies, Lawrence Osterhout and Jannetie Newkirk. The successors of the original trustees afterward bought 30 acres for the benefit of the corporation. Among the early settlers of the area around Hurley were families named Crispell, DuBois, Cole, Newkirk, Schepmoes, Ten Eyck, Wynkoop, Elmendorf, Roosa, Constable, Louw, Delamater, and others - mostly from Holland and Belgium. In 1719 the following persons held the offices of trustees of the corporation of Hurley : Cornelius Kool, Adrien Garretse, Jacob DuBois, Barnabus Swartwout, Jacob Rutse, Nicholas Roosa and Charles Wyle.

Eyke Aelbert Roosa⁽²⁸⁾ was born on 2 APR 1651 in Herwynn, Holland. She was baptized on 6 APR 1651 in Herwynn, Holland. She died about 1684/85 in Kingston, Ulster Co., NY. Seventeenth century Dutch colonial women were much more liberated than English colonial women. This came from the Dutch laws concerning inheritance and ownership of property. Dutch women could and usually did inherit both personal property and real estate from their husbands. There were usually joint wills leaving property to the survivor. Women owned businesses and kept their maiden names on all official documents. After the British took New Netherlands in 1664, the Dutch laws were supposed to be respected, but slowly changes were made, so that by 1725, British inheritance customs were in effect in New York, even for those of Dutch descent. Women no longer used their maiden names and had lost their rights to own property. It is documented that Eycke was taken prisoner by the Esopus Indians during the attack on Esopus on June 7, 1663. Eyke would have been about 12 years old. She was later rescued around Sept. 5, 1663 from the Esopus Indian Village by the Dutch settlers led by Lieut. Pieter Wolphertse Van Couwenroven.
