"Jacob Melyn came here from New Haven, CT, but was previously of New Amsterdam. He was the son of the patroon, CORNELIS MELYN, whose name is familiar to every student of Dutch American History. The father was born, 1602, at Antwerp, Holland, and emigrated, in 1639, to New Netherland. He returned, in 1640, for his wife, Janneken and children, and obtained a grant of Staten Island. There he planted a colony, in 1641, which was broken up by the Indian war of 1643. Removing to New Amsterdam, he took up his residence in Broad, between Stone and Pearl, sts., on the E side. He espoused the popular side in politics, for which he was heavily fined by Gov. Stuyvesant, and banished for seven years. He returned to Holland for redress, was wrecked, Sep 27, 1647, and lost one of his sons, barely escaping his own life. The home government sustained his appeal, but Stuyvesant still persisted in his opposition. After another voyage to Holland, he reestablished himself, in 1650, on Staten Island, continuing there until the colony was agian dispersed by Indians, in the massacre of 1665. He removed to New Haven, CT, where he and his son Jacob, took the oath of fidelity, April 7, 1657. In 1659, he repaired again to Holland, effected a settlement of his difficulties, relinquished Staten Island to the West India Company, and soon after returned to New Netherland. He had died in 1674, leaving his wife, three sons -Jacob, Cornelius, and Isaac, and three daughters, Marian, Susanna, and Magdaleen. (Hatfield does not mention Cornelia, but he does say a daughter m Jacob Schellinger, a merchant of NY.) ....Jacob m Hannah Hubbard, daughter of George Hubbard of Guilford, CT, and resided in Elizabethtown, NJ "His house lot contained four acres and was bounded by his brother in law Humprey Spinning (who m Abigail Hubbard) and John Winans.

#4 son of James Haines Sr., b. 1613 at England, d. 1652 at Southold, LI, NY
* most likely came from England to Salem, MA, then to "Yennicot" or Southold, LI, NY; listed as an original settler of Southold in 1640, but then, why is Benjamin recorded and his siblings as being babtised in 1643 in Boston, MA? possibly, he settled at Southold, and later brought his family?
There is a Benjamin Haynes recorded as a 1st settler of Southampton, could he be a brother to James?
* m to Mary ? in 1633; Mary m 2nd Ralph Dayton in June 1656
* Cooper in 1651
* From Hatfield's "History of Elizabeth, NJ" p 78; "John Hinds and his brother, James, were "East Enders" from Long Island. They were the sons of JAMES Hinds, who came over from England to Salem, MA, as early as 1637, when he was admitted a freeman. He married in 1638, and at an early day, removed to Southold, LI, where he died March 1652, his estate being valued at L123.5.4. He had eight children: John, James, BENJAMIN, Mary, James 2nd, Jonathan, Sarah, and Thomas. His widow was married, in June 1656, to Ralph Dayton, of Southold. John was the oldest son, and was babtised, August 28, 1639. James was babtised Feb 27, 1647. Benjamin Haines, who was at Southampton, in 1639, and a resident of North Sea (Northampton,) in 1657, was probably a brother of James Senr. He was the grandfather of Stephen, who removed to this town as early as 1725, and was the ancestor of Gov. Daniel Haines." (This differs from information provided by the Haines Family, who say Stephen descended from James Sr.) "John Hinds, the son of James Senr., of Southold, was bred a cooper." He is on the list of original settlers of Elizabeth Town in 1664. His brother James, who was also a cooper, came to Elizabeth Town, about 10 yrs later.
