Of course, the true joy of genealogy lies in the surprises. I never knew I had Dutch ancestors until about 4 years ago, and although I grew up in Morris County, my family moving there in 1962, I had no idea my ancestors had been among the earliest settlers. (If anyone else has Dutch blood, I strongly recommend "Daily Life in Rembrandt's Holland".)
