The Penn in Pennsylvania was inserted at Charles I's insistence as a tribute to Admiral Penn, not William Penn. The Admiral is the captain of the ship that brought Charles back to England prior to the restoration. The Penn family had long & strong tie to the Stuarts - William was a fervent Jacobite, loaning large sums of money to James II for his failed attempt to retake the throne. William Penn was charged with treason and his Irish estates and his Province were confiscated by William & Mary for two years while Penn either hid out in England and/or gained enough supporters to have the charges dropped and his estates restored - or rather, his right to govern & profit from them as the land itself was not confiscated, only the right to govern was. His travels to Germany was actually a trip to find one of the Stuart girls; the proselytizing was a side show.

george clinton was my ancestor!

Great history lesson!

I've read 'The History of New Jersey' Samuel Smith, 1765, several times the last 15 years. Samuel Jennings, Lt. Governor, who signed the constitution of West New Jersey on 25 November 1681, is one of my paternal ancestors. You've done a good job & I'll be subscribing. Speaker Samuel Jennings representing both the New Jersey & New York Assemblies delivered The Remonstrance to Lord Cornbury on 8 May 1707. He concluded with- "And we cannot but be uneasy, when we find by these new methods of government, our liberties and properties so much shaken, that no man can say he is master of either, but holds as tenant by courtesy and at will, and may be stripped of them at pleasure. Liberty is too valuable a thing to be easily parted with, and when such mean inducements procure such violent endeavors to tear it from us, we must take leave to say, they have neither heads, hearts, nor souls, that are not moved by the miseries of their country, and are not forward with their utmost power, lawfully to redress them.” Smith's History of New Jersey, 1765, Chapter XV, p. 295.

I'm from South jersey and descended from early quaker stock. This was really great to see and learn that my people really did have their own thing going and their own peaceful arrangement with the Lenape. It makes me want to read the history books and see which of those 1400 were my people. It really solidifies the difference between north and south jersey, and it's amazing to learn that south or west jersey is older than Pennsylvania or Philadelphia. We really are our own place, aren't we.

Fantastic series on NJ.., Thank you! I have Quaker roots, so feel I can say this (I hope).... Someone told me that the Quakers came to the New World to do good, and they did damn well.

28:44 my 9x great grandfather was arrested for possessing wampum, only it’s written way fancier lol but I think wampum was also items that were considered illegal

If Trump gets re elected; he’s gonna do what’s right and bring back East/West New Jersey! Just kidding!😂

Not sure I like the choice of stock imagery; makes me doubt your homework/research. Should just stick with images of Quakers to make the video seem factually accurate.

Wondering what was the cause of the Dutch English war ?

really great history. Thanks. I know Esopus well but nothing about this fascinating history.

Great episode of a delightful series. Keep up the great work Sir!

The last map had an error , Quincy was not a town yet . The correct name is Braintree .

I live near Quakerbridge Road," in Hamilton. I always wondered if there were any Quakers in the area giving the road its name.

Great video. Keep 'em coming. I have a personal interest as the founders of Plymouth, New Haven, Maine, etc include many ancestors.

Okay, what's your fake cover name going to be? "I wanna be Willie!" Come on now, this is important and we need to be serious. You need a full proper name. "Ugh fine, Willie Person Man!" They're all going to be onto that in 5 seconds dude. "Willie Person Man...gum" Fuck it fine whatever!

This is a major reason the NJ Nixons became the PA Nixons.

I appreciate all of these vignettes into U S VP history because it makes our past so 'human.'

Interesting and factual. Thank you for creating this. As a native West Jerseyan, I appreciate what you've put together here.

As someone resident and with deep ancestry on both sides of the Delaware including West Jersey I thank you for making this video. I have always believed that "New Jersey should be split along the Province Line again and the West portion must be united with southeastern Pennsylvania (Philadelphia and all surrounding counties) and the Lower Three (Delaware, or at least just New Castle County) as one culturally cohesive state. Even today the cultural divide of the Province Line is reflected in elements such as phonology, dialect, food and sports team allegiances. 🦅

Nice video on john Tyler as I had no clue about his pre VP Life other than he he was Born in 1790 .

Do you know about the several chambers across New England such as the Upton Chamber?

I grew up in Trenton and was familiar with the Quakers but thank you for the in depth history very interesting

Appreciate all you do. Ir a kwa

This sounds like how so many dishonest politicians got started in New Jersey. Nowadays.

Thank you for this podcast! I love it!

Reagan winning was the start of the downfall of America!

Quaker influence and presence is still large in Philadelphia. The Friends own some great real estate there.

But our system totally isn't corrupt guys. It's just one big coincidence that all the wealthy elites on the presidential ballot for the past several decades have been related. There is only like a billion people in America so I'm sure the odds are good that every single presidential candidate is related.

Hutchinson was put on trial , convicted, and banished - like the Quakers were - because of her inner spirit - the Puritans didnt like that idea at all.

Please do a series on Delaware!

Recently found your channel and it’s really helpful! fyi re: your audio: your “s” sounds are ear-splitting while the rest of your audio is maybe a little quiet, so that when I have the volume high enough to generally hear you, your “s” sounds stab my eardrums. Not sure how you’d fix that but I listen to a lot of content and your channel is the only one that does that to my ears (at least the most recent vids), so wanted to let you know.

This is truly an underrated podcast series. Thank you for continuing to make these incredible and informative videos !

A very detailed and entertaining playlist regarding the Dutch Revolt ruclips.net/p/PL5kdplBvGykUDWHX8m5HwPfn-h302Oe7d&si=pecdnCOiym8AKYSW

In the maternal line of my family, I have European ancestry from the Netherlands. My Dutch ancestors came during the time when New York was owned and colonized by the Netherlands.

I grew up in that little bitty slice of modern day Massachusetts..still live there..love our history. Keep up the good work amigo.

Excellent

Well done! Two constructive remarks. 1. Why not show pictures of maps for example? 2. The Old Frisians largely left Frisia after the demise of the Roman Empire. Nobody knows where they went. Some say Belgium/France, some say Scotland, some say northern England. They were replaced by the current Frisians, they came from southern Denmark and northern Germany. So if you say the Frisian language of the original Frisians influenced English, that is probably incorrect. Probably, because we don't know where they went to nor do we not know what their language sounded like. And you mix up Liechtenstein and Luxembourg. Lastly, the VOC was in its first instance a military undertaking to deprive Spain and Portugal of their resources. To give them room to maneuver, they could declare war themselves and mint coins overseas.

I like your point that they are unique (Haudenosaunee is more elegant in many key ways), but to be fair to Franklin, it seems to me he commends the Six Nations for being such a long lasting (solid) government, and from the standpoint of American perspective, they were "savage"....arrogant maybe, but not necessarily malicious.

I created the wikipedia page for this Dutch raid on North America a few months ago. When I discovered the reconquest of New York by the Dutch I was suprised how little attention it gets. It is a really fascinating story that unfortunately forgotten. Well done!

Any knowledge of Steven Bishop and Tabitha wilkman married on May 26th 1656 ...Anyone ???

The Trump supporters are very supportive of the Electoral College. When Biden loses the popular vote and wins Electoral College, we shall see how they feel then.

I liked our way of farming. Neat to learn that haudenosaunee domesticated bears from cubs and plump them up to enjoy later like Japanese tribes back in the day...

New Netherland had an aggressive streak at one point also, they also assaulted the Swedes.

There has only been *one* European colony which A) did not have any wars with Indigenous people, and B) did not participate in the sale of African slaves, and C) purchased land agreements from Indigenous people before actually arriving. There's only one European colony that met all of this criteria, and this was it.

Id pray for the person and say be healed in Jesus name, thank Jesus for who he is what hes done an continue. After a few minutes ask them and tell them be truthful if theres good change. If theres not continue a few more minutes and pause again. Speak boldly to this sickness in Jesus name. 😊❤

This is hilarious 😂 a God of butts, i bet after some chili and fry bread with a pint of Guinness hes quiet powerful 😂 I hear usually if a person talks nonsense theyre talking out of their butts. 😂

Wish there was more information on the Mi'kmaq people as i have Mi'kmaq ancestry. My great-grandfather could not speak of their heritage because they would get punishment. Sadly i dont know much about my ancestry except knowing my ancestor was a war chief. I dont know anything about him or when he lived or the things he did, which is sad. My grandmother's cousin had paperwork to prove what was stated, but I sadly dont know who has these papers now. 😢

Seems as though the Innu were more or less eskimos. 😊

my great grandmother was named idaho coffin. I did our geneology via family search and find a grave. Were related to Tristam Coffin, Edward Strbuck, Thomas Gardener, Thomas Macy and Thomas Mayhew. They all had families toghether, for generations.
