Document: Rensselaerswyck - 1632 (circa) Map of Rensselaerswyck Manor

Original Map of Rensselaerswyck, probably created around 1632, but not known exactly. Authorship is usually credited to Gillis van Schendel, but due to timing inconsistencies, this is most likely not true. Believed to be the first map created of the Manor of Rensselaerswyck. The Hudson River flows from right to left; north is to the right. Fort Orange is on the map near the river.
