DYE (DUYTS) GENEALOGY DATA

"Laurens Duyts came over to New Netherland in 1639 in the ship 'de Brant van Trogen.' Among his fellow passengers were the Danes Captain Jochem Pietersen Kuyter, Jonas Bronck(?), and Pieter Andriesen. Duyts and Andriesen were to work for Jonas Bronck: to clear a tract of five hundred acres, which Bronck had purchased from the Indians. Duyts thus became one of the pioneers of the present Borough of Bronx. He was commonly known as Laurens Grootschoe (Big Shoe). He was born in Holstein in 1610.

Died - on Friday, the 29th ult., Isaac Newton, son of John L. and Sarah Jane Dye, aged 1 year, 9 months, 11 days.
"As vernal flowers that scent the morn,
But wither in the rising day,
Thus was this infant's lovely dawn-
Thus swiftly fled his life away.

He died before his infant soul
Had ever burned with wrong desires-
Had ever spurned at heaven's control,
Or ever quenched its sacred fires.

He died to sin, be died to care-
But for a moment felt the rod;
Then rising ont he viewless air,
Spread his light wings and soared to God.

And thus shall faith's consoling power
The tears of love restrain;
O who that saw thy parting hour,
Could wish thee back again.

Triumphant in thy closing eye,
The hope of glory shone;
Joy breathed in thy expiring sigh-
We felt the pang along."

January 13, 1849 Issue
Died - on Monday, the 8th inst., Sarah Jane DYE, wife of John DYE, aged 22 yrs. and 3 months.
"How sweet the hour of closing day,
When all is peaceful and serene;
And when the sun with cloudless ray,
Sheds mellow lustre o'er the scene.

Such is this sister's parting hour-
So peacefully she sinks to rest
When faith, endued from Heaven with power,
Sustains and cheers her languid breast.

Mark but that patience of her eye
That smile upon her wasted cheek;
They tell us of her glory nigh,
In language that no tongue can speak.

A beam from Heaven is sent to cheer
The pilgrim on her gloomy road;
And angels are attneding near,
To bear her to their bright abode.

Who would not wish to die like those
Whom God's own spirit deigns to bless?
To sink into that soft repose-
Then wake to perfect happiness."
