Everything about Beverwyck totally explained
Beverwyck was a fur-trading community north of
Fort Orange on the
Hudson River in
New Netherland that was to become
Albany, New York when the
English took control of the colony in
1664.
During the
1640s, the name
Beverwyck began to be used informally for the settlement of fur traders north of the fort. In
1652, the
Dutch West India Company took control of that area and made the name official. By
1660, a
palisade was built around Beverwyck and it had become economically and politically successful, with large families residing in the community.
Another Beverwyck
is situated in
New Jersey and was a large
estate around the time of the US Civil War. There is, of course, also the "original"
Beverwyck in the
Netherlands, situated on the North Sea coast.
