[edit] 16th Century History of the Netherlands
During the course of the 16th century (1500's), the Netherlands experienced significant political changes. The union of the lowlands with Spain under Charles V, combined with the Renaissance's renewed awareness of Humanism, and the religious Reformation led to a rebellion against the Spanish rule and to the start of the religious war. By 1600, the northern and southern Netherlands were effectively split. In Northern Renaissance art, the Dutch Golden Age blossomed in the north while the Flemish Baroque, reflecting the Catholic Counter-Reformation, developed in the south. (Johannes Vermmer (1632-1665), resident of Delft, was of this Dutch Baroque school of painting. Raised by Dutch Reformed parents, he married into wealthy Catholic family. He would have been of the generation of Maria Goverts' children.) Gradually, as the Southern Netherlands remained under Spanish rule, the balance of power shifted to the north and the emerging Dutch Republic. Amsterdam became the center of wealth, power, and exploration. Governors in Amsterdam controlled the Dutch colony in America. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renaissance_in_the_Netherlands

[edit] Source Notes
- Source #1, Harlem, City of New York - Maria Govert was "gd.-mother" of one of the children of Joseph Waldron. Additional wording says Joseph sent money back to Holland "to his said mother". It is possible that Maria Govert was his mother-in-law and thus the grandmother of Joseph's child and yet referred to simply as his mother. From this source, researchers have assigned the name of Maria Govert as the mother of Joseph Waldron, which is problematic. Maria Govert is also assigned as the mother of Joseph Waldron's wife, Annetje Daniels. Joseph Waldron's father is said to have been Johannes Willemsen Waldron, Maria Govert's first husband; Annetje Daniels' father is said to have been Daniel Adriaenszen Landou, Maria Govert's second husband. This would make the married couple Annetje and Joseph step-siblings. "Maria Govert" may have been a common name in Amsterdam. We believe other additional primary records are needed to establish the parentage of this couple.
