Misc. Notes
According to a genealogy published by Allen Rosenkrans in 1900 the family emigrated to Holland where they remained about one hundred fifty years and then went to Norway where they became engaged in whaling and fishing.
Harman was a soldier in the service of the Dutch West India Company. He was sometimes referred to "Harman, the Portuguese", which referred to a stint of service in the Portuguese colony of Brazil. He probably came to New Amsterdam as a part of the reinforcements brought from Brazil in 1655. He received a discharge from this service 17 Apr 1657 shortly after his marriage.
