Jan Dyckman1

M, #56442, b. About 1647, d. 1715
Last Edited 13 April 2024 16:00:05
Biographical Note"Jan Dyckman was the founder of the family, came from Bentheim, Westphalia, and was a landholder in Harlem as early as 1666."2
BirthJan Dyckman was born About 1647, in Bentheim, Westphalia, HollandG. Bentheim now belongs in the Federal Republic of Germany. The District of Bentheim is located in the southwest corner of Lower Saxony, bordered by Holland and Nord Rhine-Westphalia.3,4
NoteJan was driven from his home in Bentheim, Germany by Catholic persecution to Amsterdam, Holland, and emigrated to New Amsterdam (New York) in the year 1661. He was one of the original Harlem Patentees, and a member of the Harlem Militia, in which he served with distinction in several Indian campaigns. He was one of eight volunteers for the expedition to help vanquish Indians in Esopus, (eventually in Ulster County) New York. The Dyckman Farmhouse Museum is in Dyckman House Park, 4881 Broadway at 204th Street, New York, NY 10034. Museum Administered by: City of New York / Parks & Recreation, Open to the public: Tuesday - Sunday, 11 am -4 pm, Reservations required for groups of 10 or more. Closed for all major holidays. For more information, call 1-206-304-9422. Eight miles north of Times Square, busy Broadway is the site of one of Manhattan's oldest houses. Not far from Inwood Hill Park at Manhattan's northern tip, the Dyckman House is the only remaining Dutch colonial farmhouse in the borough. The area around the house was settled by Jan Dyckman, who arrived from Westphalia, Prussia, (now a part of Germany) in 1661. His grandson, William Dyckman, inherited the farm, and after the Hessian occupation of the land during the American Revolution, he built the present house in about 1785. Its southern wing, known as the 'summer kitchen' (currently the caretaker's quarters), is an earlier structure that may date from 1725. The Dyckman family sold the prosperous farm in 1868 and moved to a more fashionable mansion on Broadway. In 1915, two sisters, Mary Alice D.Dean and Fannie Fredricka D. Welsh, descendants of William Dyckman, bought back the family house and began extensive reconstruction - - oneof the earliest historic restorations undertaken in New York. They presented it to the City in 1916 with 18th-and 19th-century furniture and objects that were representative of their family's belongings. Today, Parks & Recreation administers the house. The two-story building has wide unvarnished floorboards and a gambrel roof that slopes over front and back porches. Except for the brick front, its lower walls are of fieldstone and its upper story white clapboard. Visitors arrive at a central hall leading to a parlor, a dining room and a farm office. A restored Relic Room contains photographs and artifacts of Inwood from the last two centuries. Many of the objects date from the Revolutionary War period, when the Hessians, German soldiers serving with the British, were encamped there. Upstairs are bedrooms with period furnishings. The cellar kitchen is filled with old waffle irons and sausage stuffers, wooden bowls and pewter dishes, and a large hearth with kettles and a bake oven. The stairs descending to the kitchen skirt large rock outcroppings. Inscribed into the rock is a 'nine man morris' game board where Dyckman children may have played games while their mothers cooked. The house site includes a re-created smokehouse and a Hessian hut erected from original building materials during the 1915-17 restoration. A small herb garden and perennial garden of flowers add local color to this important remnant of early New York. A scanned copy of this article and a picture of the Farmhouse is in Jan Dyckman's scrapbook.
