GENEALOGIES, DIRECTORIES and HISTORIES

The Holland Society of New York

	The Holland Society of New York was founded in 1885 "to collect and preserve information respecting the early history and settlement of the City and State of New York by the Dutch, and to discover, collect and preserve all still existing documents, etc., relating to their genealogy and history." --The Yearbook of the Holland Society 1928-29, p. 153 Left, Badge; above, Lapel pin, called the Button by the Society.
In each Holland Society yearbook there was published a cumulative listing of all the members, when they joined and the date of their death, if that had occurred by its publication. The most recent I've found is that of the 1928-29 year. In that year, these were the Van Woert members:
