Full Stokes Entry (See images below)
Jacob Jansen Plodder's neglected little house and lot, which he bought from Claes Hendiicksen, May 17, 1654, and which, at the time of the Plan, were a source of great annoyance to his neighbours. (See No. 11.) On account of his neglect, the property was forfeited to his Royal Highness (the Duke of York), and regranted to Balthazar de Haart, June 28, 1667. — Patents, II: 56 (Albany); Key to Map of Dutch Grants.
Jacob Jansen Gardenier, alias Plodder, from Kampen, in the province of Overyssel, was a carpenter by trade; he probably came out in September, 1637, in "den Harinck," with Claes Jansen Ruyter. In April, 1654, he bought a large parcel of land in this block, fronting to the wall, for "one thousand pieces of green planks." — Rec. N. Am., I: 318. He was sued by the Damen heirs {idem), but must have paid up, for he got his deed, January 22, 1656; he sold the entire tract off in lots, June 24, 1656. — Key to Map of Dutch Grants.
His interests were principally at Rensselaerswyck. There is an excellent biographical sketch of Flodder in the Van Rensselaer Bowier MSS., p. 816, and a more extended account by Dingman Versteeg in The New Netherland Register, for January, 1911.
