"Where Teunis Quick lives," is the entry in the De Sille List, of 1660. Teunis Tomassen, a mason, from Naerden, Province of North Holland, is often referred to in early records as Teunis Quick — a surname held by his descendants at the present time. — Rec. N. Am., II: 428, et. seq.

Teunis Tomassen, from Naerden, was in New Amsterdam as early as 1640 {CaL Hist. MSS., Dutch, 14), and was established on this site by 1645. — Liber GG: 107 (Albany). By February, 1659, he had built his "new" house (so called in Mortgages, 1654-1660, trans, by O'Callaghan, 123-4), ^^^ seems to have torn down his first home, of which the Plan shows no trace. His new house really stood on the lot next south, just behind Frederick Philipse's, which is vacant on the Plan. The artist, in this instance, the only one noted, evidently sacrificed truth to the balance of his picture. There were really two lots between Teunis Quick and Gerrit Hendricksen (No. 2), which, in 1660, belonged to Jan Jansen de Jongh, and were still unbuilt upon (see Key to Map of Dutch Grants). In August, 1663, Teunis sold his house to his brother-in-law, Jacob Teunissen Kay, the baker. — Liber Deeds, B: 21; cf. Deeds i^ Conveyances (etc.), 1659-1664, trans, by O'Callaghan, 328-9. The property remained in the De Key family until 1771. — Liber Deeds, LVI: 495.
