General Notes: Husband - Capt. Daniel Brodhead

---

Ancestors of the Brodhead family are said to have emigrated from Germany to England and settled in Yorkshire during the reign of Henry VIII. In the parish records at Royston, which are nearly perfect from 1530, the name is spelled "Brodhead" until about 1640, when it began to be written "Broadhead", as it was still spelled by members of the family in England two hundred years later.
He was with the expedition sent out from England in 1664 under Colonel Richard Nichols by the Duke of York to make a conquest of New Amsterdam and the other Dutch possession in New Netherlands. He was a captain of the British grenadiers, was present at the surrender, and September 14, 1665, was commander of the British post at Esopus, near Kingston, Ulster county, New York. [CRFP, 906]

The progenitor of the Brodhead family is said to have come from Germany to England and to have settled at Royston, in Yorkshire, in the reign of Henry VIII. On Feb. 28, 1610, King James I granted the manor of Burton, or Monk Britton, in the West Riding of Yorkshire, to John Brodhead and George Wood, the principal freeholders of that place. Daniel Brohead was a grandnephew of the above grantee and was the first of this family to reach America. About 1664, as a captain of grenadiers under Charles II, he came to America with Colonel Nichols from Yorkshire, and was present at the surrender of New Netherlands to the British crown. He had brought his household with him, intending to settle in the province after its conquest, and, being a zealous royalist, he was stationed at Esopus, Ulster County, New York, upon the surrender of the colony, where he remained till his death. [CAB, 726]

The county of Ulster having been settled by Hollanders and Huguenots, the Brodhead family from the first became so interwoven with these and identified with them in feelings and interests as to give to the world a people distinguished by the most valuable traits of character.

The Brodhead name and family are plainly traced back in English history to a time previous to the reign of Henry VIII. The American branch descended from Captain Daniel Brodhead, who came from Yorkshire, England, in 1664. He was appointed Commander-in-Chief of the military forces at Esopes, New York, on September 14, 1665, which, in expedition captured New Amsterdam from the Dutch. Among the descendants are such names as Jacob B. Brodhead, D.D., who founded the First Dutch Reformed Church in Philadelphia; John Romeyn Brodhead, the historian; John B. Brodhead, who traveled as a Methodist preacher in New Jersey and Maryland in 1794-6, and then went to New England and became the founder of Methodism there and in Canada, and later was Congressional Representative from New Hampshire; Captain Daniel Brodhead, who was sent by Gen. George Washington against the Seneca and Muncey Indians in 1778 and was able to make several important treaties with them and the Chereokees, as well, receiving the thanks of Congress for his success. For several years he was surveyor General of Pennsylvania.

Capt. Daniel Brodhead, of the English army, came to America in 1664, as a member of the expedi-tion commanded by Col. Richard Nichols, in the service of King Charles II, after the Restoration. After the surrender of Stuyvesant Captain Brodhead was sent up to Albany, in September, 1664, and was a wit-ness to the treaty made with the Indians there in that month. He was afterward promoted to the command of the military forces of Ulster county, by commission from King Charles, dated Sept. 14, 1665, which position he held till his death in 1670. He left one daughter and two sons. [HAC 1914, 984]
