I am not sure that my people went to Bucks Co., but my ancestor "Duyts" and
his family were kicked out of New Amsterdam for him selling his wife.
Supposedly this man received the worst punishment ever given out by Peter
Stuyvesant (SP). This might be another reason for leaving as getting in
trouble as the Dutch ran a very moral and tight ship.
