      In 1695 Roelof, along with nine others, purchased from the Lord Proprieters of East Jersey for the sum of 100 pounds a large tract of land. This land - some thousands of acres - extending from the Hudson River to the Overpeck or English Creek and running north and south for about two miles, The lands were fertile, well elevated and sloped gradually from the Palisades to the Overpeck Creek. Roelof received the most northerly portion and settled there.
