Misc. Notes
When Dom. Bogardus died and Annetje removed to Beaverwyck, this land became a part of what was called "the King's farm," which extended some distance further south, and embraced the present site of Trinity Church. It is not known exactly how it pasied into the possession of the King's Farm. Whether it was bought from Annetje or her children, or whether it lapsed to the Crown after her death, has never been clearly shown.
On Nov. 15, 1705, a portion of the King's farm, including this tract, was given by partition to the corporation of Trinity Church.
This is the famous "Annetje Janse farm," now situated in
the very heart of New York's most valuable business section,
and worth many millions of dollars, and for the possession of
which many thousands have been spent.

Misc. Notes
In the Minutes of the Qassis of Amsterdam, Holland,
June 7, 1632, it is mentioned that a "Everardus Bogardus, became an ordained minister of the Dutch Reformed Church.
He was sent to New Netherland, and probably came with Director General Woulter Van Twilier, who arrived in New Amsterdam in the ship Salt Mountain April, 1633. He was the first resident minister in the little Dutch Settlement on Manhattan Island, but not the first preacher.
It has been stated by some authorities that Domine Bogardus was a widower when he arrived in New Amsterdam. However that may be, he married at that place Annetje Janse, widow of Roelof Jansen. "June 21, 1642.
In 1647, he resigned his pastorate in New Amsterdam
and obtained permission to return to Holland. He took passage on the ship Princess in August, 1647. While off the coast of England the mariners mistook the channel, entered the estuary of the river Severn and were shipwrecked on the coast of Wales, Sept 27, 1647. All on board perished, among whom was Domine Bogardus. Annetje Janse survived him sixteen years.
She removed to Beverwyck, now Albany, where she died in 1663; her will was dated January 29, 1663. Annetje Janse or Anneke Jans, as she is more often spoken of, is perhaps better known to posterity than her husband, Domine Bogardus, through the litigations which from time to time her heirs have instituted against the corporation of Trinity Church, New York, for the possession of land belonging to that church corporation.
Annetje Janse was the daughter of Catharine, or as the name
is usually given, Trynje Jonas, who was the official midwife of the Dutch West Indies Company in Holland, and as early as 1616 in New Amsterdam.
With her first husband Roelof Jansen'of Maesterland, they removed about that time to Fort Orange, now Albany, where Roelof was employed as foreman or steward by the Patroon Van Rensselaer, on his de Laets Burg Bouwerie, or farm. On July 1, 1662, he was appointed Schepen, an office much like an Alderman. He carried on a trade with the Indians, on his own account A beautiful little stream is called by his name, in Columbia County, "Roelof Jansen's Kill"
Prior to 1635 Roelof Jansen and his wife, Annetje Janse, removed back to New Amsterdam, where he acquired a tract of land from Director General Van Twilier of about sixty acres, on the shore of the North or Hudson River. It was situated some distance to the north of Trinity Church, about the site of the present Jay street and West Broadway.
Here he built a farmhouse, but ere he had time to more than
begin to cultivate his farm he died, and the property passed into the hands of his widow, Annetje Janse, who was left with the care of the farm and four little children.
After her second marriage to Dom. Bogardus, the farm was
known as the "Domine's bouwerie”, and was their home.
