Summary
In order to assess how Nieuw Nederlanders (New Netherlanders) perceived Indians, it is essential to determine what terms the Dutch used to refer to them. The purpose of tables A.1–A.4 is to provide a sense of how their views of Indians persisted and evolved over time. The data gathered here is summarized in graphs 4.1–4, which can be found on pages 13, 71, 116, and 129. The data was gleaned from a comprehensive cross-section of sources written by Dutch individuals on both sides of the Atlantic who either had first-hand experiences with Indians living in the Northeastern Woodlands or had read first-hand accounts written by those with first-hand experiences. The bulk of the data comes from the original Registers of the Provincial Secretary, Council Minutes, Correspondence, and Patents housed in the New York State Archives. Finally, to determine whether social status and/or place had any influence on how individuals characterized Indians, the occupation and location of each individual is, when possible, identified.
