It is believed that John William Workman emigrated from England to Holland
in the early 1600s. All of the children left Holland to come to the New
Netherlands in America. At this time the colony was under the judicial
powers of Peter Stuyvesant. This area was not named "New York" until 1664
when the area was captured by the English. Elizabeth and her husband were
among the first settlers of the town of Bushwick (now in Brooklyn) and
Richard and Annetje made their home in what is now Brooklyn, Kings County.

The emigration of John William Workman from Gloucester, England, would seem to have been between 1614 and 1628. The events of the reign of James I may shed light on the motivation, whether political, religious or criminal prosecution, but the strong religious ties to the Dutch Reformed Church indicate religious persecution. |
