Notes for Peter LASSING
Pieter Pieterse Lasse from Hoesem, age 24, went into service to Jan Baptista van Rensselaer, in 1659. “Hoesem probably refers to the coastal city of Husum in Schleswig-Holstein… prior to 1616 it was part of Denmark. It is possible that Pieter was of German origin, since he consistently used a surname, but he also could have been of Dutch or Danish descent.”8310 As of 1998 when this article was written searches of parish record of this region had not revealed a record for Pieter.
