...large house with ornamental dormers...Stokes.

Full Stokes Entry (See images below)
Frederick Lubbertsen, of Breuckelen, maintained a residence in New Amsterdam "at the Hoeck of the Heere Straat, near the bridge of the Graft." The Plan shows it as a large house with ornamental dormers, which evidently replaced the earlier building owned by Jan van Hardenbergh, of Amsterdam, which Lubbertsen bought in October, 1655. — Liber Deeds, A: 157. He was living in the new house in September, 1657, when he pledged it to his daughter, Rebecca, as security for her share in her mother's estate. — Ibid., A: 104.

Frederick Lubbertsen was in New Amsterdam as early as October, 1633, according to an entry in N. Y. Col. Docs., 11: 140. He was one of the Twelve Men in 1641. — Ibid., I: 415. As a representative of Amersfoort, he signed the Remonstrance and Petition, of December 11, 1653. [']

He received the great burgherright in 1658. — Rec. N. Am., \\: 315.

Although Lubbertsen preferred to live across the East River, he still kept his house here in 1667 {Patents, II: 93, Albany), but later sold it to Dr. Hans Kierstede, the younger, his family physician. In a suit between them as to the payment for the house, June, 1674, it appeared that the elder Kierstede had also doctored the Lubbertsen family for a long period, at a certain fixed yearly salary. — Rec. N. Am., VII: 92. Frederick Lubbertsen died in 1680. His will, dated November 22, 1679, is in Liber Deeds, 1 : 130, in Kings County.

Mr. Augustus Jay bought the property from the Kierstede heirs, in 1712. — /ij(^.-, XXX: 115, in N. Y. County.
