    Biography:
    Captain Richard Brodhead​, son of Captain Daniel and Ann Brodhead, was born at Marbletown, New York, in the year 1666, died in 1758. Little is satisfactorily known of this Richard. It is known, however, that he held a captain’s commission in the Ulster county militia, in 1728, and it is likely that he was engaged in the Indian wars of that period. His wife was Magdalena Jansen, whom he married, April 19, 1692, by whom he had a son Daniel. Magdalena Jansen Brodhead died in 1701 [sic].

    Notes:

    For the Brodhead family I have used information from http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~kdecker/Brodhead.htm and have used Kitty Decker's notes in entirity. This lineage was originally given to me by my uncle LeRoy Johnson. But his information I have found to be incomplete and sometimes inaccurate. There are many sources with often conflicting information. I have found this information to be the overall best. And I unashamedly say that I copied as I was not able to contact the author.

    Captain Daniel BRODHEAD

    Born: Cir 1631, West Riding, Yorkshire, England 1
    Marriage: Ann TYE [10235] about 1661 in England 1
    Died: 14 Jul 1667, Esopus, New York, United States at age 36 1
    bullet General Notes:

    We know nothing about Captain Daniel’s birth except he was born in West Riding, Yorkshire. There has been nothing found about his youth but we do know that times must have been rough on a young man who's family were always supporters of the King and whose youth was spent under Cromwell. When in 1660 Charles II ascended the throne, Daniel became a Captain in the English Grenadiers. In 1661 he married Ann Tye in Yorkshire. When an expedition was mounted to take over New Netherlands from the Dutch, Daniel, his wife Ann, two sons - Charles and Daniel, and all their possessions sailed on one of four ships used for the expedition - The Guinea, The Elias, the Martin, and the William and Nochilas. Since Daniel was a protege of Gov. Nichols, who led this expedition, we can only think that he was on board the Guinea with the Gov. and went with him to Cape Cod and boston to demand the assistance of the Massachusetts residents while the other ships remained in Piscatasay.

    On 18 Aug. the English squadron anchored in Nyack Bay between New Utrecht and Coney Island just below the Narrows. The next day Gov. Nichols sent a committee to Ft. Amsterdam to ask for the surrender of the Dutch. By the following Monday the Dutch people had convinced Peter Stuyvestant that all was lost and to surrender.

    "The Dutch frontier posts were thought of next. Colonel Cartwright, with Captains Thomas Willett, John Manning, Thomas Breedon, and Daniel Brodhead, were sent to Fort Orange, as soon as possible, with a letter form Nicolls requiring La Montagne and the magistrates and inhabitants to aid in prosecuting his majesty's interest against all who should oppose a peacable surrender."
    -The History of New York
    John Romayn Brodhead 1

    bullet Medical Notes:

    "Daniel's death has an air of mystery about it. Many have felt that because he was relieved of his command he died of a broken heart. Others say that he was poisoned by the Dutch in the Inn where he always ate lunch. 2

    bullet Noted events in his life were:

    • Military Service: Captain of the British Grenadiers, 1660, England. 1

    • Miscellaneous, 24 Sep 1664, Albany, New York, United States. 3 He was one of four men who signed the following Indian treaty:

    • Military Service, 14 Sep 1665, Esopus, New York, United States. 4 Captain Daniel received his commission to head the garrison at Esopus.

    "Richard Nicolls, Esq., etc.
    "To Capt. Daniel Brodhead, Chief Officer of the Militia in the Esopus:
    "Whereas, His Majesty hath been graciously pleased by his Letters Patents, under the great seal of England, to grant unto his Royal Highness, James, Duke of York and Albany, et ceters, several tracts of land in America, specified in the said Letters Patents, with full power and authority to nominate and appoint all officers, both civil and military; And, whereas, His Royal Highness hath been also granciously pleased, by commission, under his hand and seal, to grant unto me, as his Deputy-Governor, all thepower and authority expresses to be given in the said letters patents; By virtue of the said authority I do consitute and appoint you, the said Daniel Brodhead, Chief Officer of the Militia in the Esopus. You are to take care and use your utmost diligence for the defense of the place and people against any attempts. You are constantly to keep good guard, and your soldiers in good order and discipline, according to the rule and method of war; Hereby strictly charging and requiring all inferior officers and soldiers, from time to time, to receive and obey you as their Chief Officer over the Militia. And you are also to obey such orders and instructions as you shall receive from me in all cases whereunto you are required.
    "Given under my hand and seal, at the Esopes, the 14th day of September 1665.
    (signed) Richard Nicolls"

    • Miscellaneous: Letter from Gov. Nicholls, 23 Oct 1665, Esopus, New York, United States. 5 "Instructions to Capt. Daniel Brodhead for the management of the Garrison in the Esopus:

    1st. You are to keep strict order and dicipline with the soldiers, that no riots or abuses be done in their quarters; particularly that no soldiers presume to judge or revenge his own cause, but to make it first known to you: And if the complaint be against a Burgher, to make it know to the Schout, who will give you satisfaction therein; and in case you receive not so much justice as you conceive to be due, remit the rest to me and smooth up the business till my directions can be had.

    2d. You are to keep constant guards, yet with respect to the number and health of the soldiers.

    3rd. You are weekly to deliver the soldiers their full weight and allowance of provisions of Beef or Venison, proportionable, when it is to be had, and keep an exact account thereof, as also what Venison you shall buy with powder and lead, in which you must be very sparing, and give but a small quantity for a deer, with regard to your stores, that you may not want ammunition upon occasion.

    4th. You must avoid harshness of words and heat of passion in all occasions, seeking rather to reconcile differences than to be head of a party. Preserve yourself single and indifferent as to justice between soldiers and burghers. Give not too easy an ear to private whisperers and insinuators, which may overrule your judgement and beget a prejudice in your min against the Dutch. For though I am not apt to believe they have a natural affection to (the) English, yet without ill usage I do not find them so malicious as some will seek to persuade you they are.

    5th. that the soldiers do give no abuse to the Indians either in the town or woods; but if an Indian happens to be drunk or abusive in the town you may put him upon the guard till he is sober, without inflicting any other punishment upon him, which point is one of the articles made between me and them. The Indians are not to come (with their arms fixed) into the town, but to leave them at the house without the ports, which I suppose is already built for them.

    6th. That you take some seasonable opportunity to visit that tract of land which I have bought of the Indians, and is described in the articles; to which end, and as the season of the weather presents, it will be best that you get one or two of their Schems and some other of their Indians to go along with you, and thereof to give me the best account you can; as also that in the winter, when there is either an opportunity which offers itself, or some extra ordinary necessity happens, you fail not to send me words of your condition.

    7th. You may yourself to your own use (or any soldier may to his own use) plough and sow corn upon any land which is not already granted to any of the present inhabitants of the Sopes, until you receive order from me to the contrary.

    8th. In all matters which may happen accidentally you are required to make use of your best discretion, as you are punctually to observe my instructions to the particulars herein written and signed by me.
    This 23rd of October, 1665, in James Fort
    (signed) Richard Nicolls"

    Even though the governor had told him not to be prejudiced against the Dutch, Capt. Daniel could not find it in him to understand his Dutch and French neighbors. even the calendar became a battle. The Dutch preferred the New Style while the English used the old style. Capt. Daniel tried to break up a party that some of the Dutch had for New Years.

    Daniel married Ann TYE [10235] [MRIN: 3655], daughter of Francis TYE [10236] and Lettos SALMON [10237], about 1661 in England.1 (Ann TYE [10235] died in 1714 1.)
