Ancestors of Theodore Roosevelt
Generation No. 1
1. Theodore Roosevelt1,2, born 27 Oct 1858 in New York, NY; died 06 Jan 1919 in Oyster Bay, Long Island, NY. He was the son of 2. Theodore Roosevelt and 3. Martha Bullock.
Notes for Theodore Roosevelt:
26. THEODORE ROOSEVELT 1901-1909
With the assassination of President McKinley, Theodore Roosevelt, not quite 43, became the youngest President in the Nation's history. He brought new excitement and power to the Presidency, as he vigorously led Congress and the American public toward progressive reforms and a strong foreign policy.
He took the view that the President as a "steward of the people" should take whatever action necessary for the public good unless expressly forbidden by law or the Constitution." I did not usurp power," he wrote, "but I did greatly broaden the use of executive power."
Roosevelt's youth differed sharply from that of the log cabin Presidents. He was born in New York City in 1858 into a wealthy family, but he too struggled--against ill health--and in his triumph became an advocate of the strenuous life.
In 1884 his first wife, Alice Lee Roosevelt, and his mother died on the same day. Roosevelt spent much of the next two years on his ranch in the Badlands of Dakota Territory. There he mastered his sorrow as he lived in the saddle, driving cattle, hunting big game--he even captured an outlaw. On a visit to London, he married Edith Carow in December 1886.
During the Spanish-American War, Roosevelt was lieutenant colonel of the Rough Rider Regiment, which he led on a charge at the battle of San Juan. He was one of the most conspicuous heroes of the war.
Boss Tom Platt, needing a hero to draw attention away from scandals in New York State, accepted Roosevelt as the Republican candidate for Governor in 1898. Roosevelt won and served with distinction.
As President, Roosevelt held the ideal that the Government should be the great arbiter of the conflicting economic forces in the Nation, especially between capital and labor, guaranteeing justice to each and dispensing favors to none.
Roosevelt emerged spectacularly as a "trust buster" by forcing the dissolution of a great railroad combination in the Northwest. Other antitrust suits under the Sherman Act followed.
Roosevelt steered the United States more actively into world politics. He liked to quote a favorite proverb, "Speak softly and carry a big stick. . . . "
Aware of the strategic need for a shortcut between the Atlantic and Pacific, Roosevelt ensured the construction of the Panama Canal. His corollary to the Monroe Doctrine prevented the establishment of foreign bases in the Caribbean and arrogated the sole right of intervention in Latin America to the United States.
He won the Nobel Peace Prize for mediating the Russo-Japanese War, reached a Gentleman's Agreement on immigration with Japan, and sent the Great White Fleet on a goodwill tour of the world.
Some of Theodore Roosevelt's most effective achievements were in conservation. He added enormously to the national forests in the West, reserved lands for public use, and fostered great irrigation projects.
He crusaded endlessly on matters big and small, exciting audiences with his high-pitched voice, jutting jaw, and pounding fist. "The life of strenuous endeavor" was a must for those around him, as he romped with his five younger children and led ambassadors on hikes through Rock Creek Park in Washington, D.C.
Leaving the Presidency in 1909, Roosevelt went on an African safari, then jumped back into politics. In 1912 he ran for President on a Progressive ticket. To reporters he once remarked that he felt as fit as a bull moose, the name of his new party.
While campaigning in Milwaukee, he was shot in the chest by a fanatic. Roosevelt soon recovered, but his words at that time would have been applicable at the time of his death in 1919: "No man has had a happier life than I have led; a happier life in every way."

Notes for Jean Mousnier De La Montagne:
Who was he, this man from whom we descend?
Johannes Monerius Montanus "Xanto", Dutch university student?
Jehan Mousnier de la Montagne, Walloon explorer?
Jean de La Montagne, French Huguenot minister of the Gospel?
Johannes La Montagne, physician of New Amsterdam?
J. LaMontagne, signer of treaties with Indian tribes?
Dr. Johannes Mousnier de la Montagne, founder of an American family?
Jean Mousnier de la Montagne was a Protestant from France. He was born about 1595 and he lived most of his life in exile from France. That much is certain. No one knows where he was born nor where he was living before 1619. No one knows who his parents were nor what the double-barreled name denotes. Does it imply an aristocratic origin? It may literally have meant "the miller from the mountain."
He may have been a native of Saintonge in west-central France, as Riker believed, or he may have come from another mountainous area of France. No records have been found in Saintonge to support Riker's belief, and all of our ancestor's associations in Holland were with Walloons, French Huguenots from northern France. There is a village named Santes near Lille, which has been suggested as a more likely place of his origin than Saintes in Saintonge.
He first appears on record in the Netherlands on 19 November 1619 when he registered as a student of medicine at the University of Leyden, signing his name in Latin as Johannes Monerius Montanus, a native of "Xanto". He was twenty-four years old and was boarding with the family of Robert Botack, a shoemaker on the Voldersgraft10. He next appears as a signer of the round-robin petition of the Huguenot heads of family in Leyden, addressed in July 1621 to the British Ambassador at the Hague, asking for permission to establish a Huguenot colony in Virginia. Permission was not granted to the Huguenots for that colony and so Jehan Mousnier de la Montagne accompanied Jesse DeForest to the Amazon River and the coast of Guiana in 1623, one of a party of eleven Huguenot men on board the Pigeon looking for a site to establish a Huguenot colony. He returned to Leyden on the Black Eagle late in 1625, bringing with him the news of the death of Jesse DeForest, the so-called Journal of Jesse DeForest, and the maps of the exploration party.
He is named as a boarder in the home of the widow of Jesse DeForest in 1626 and again that same year as a medical student at the University of Leyden. On 28 November 1626, he married Rachel, daughter of Jesse DeForest and his wife Marie Du Cloux, in the Walloon Church in Leyden. He was then thirty-one years old; she about seventeen. There is no baptismal record for Rachel DeForest, but her parents were living at Moncornet in Thierarche, in the French province of Picardy, between 1607 and 1615. They returned to Sedan to baptize Elizabeth in 1607 and David in 1608, but there is a break in the records of the Huguenot Church of Sedan between 1609 and 1617. For that reason, it is assumed that Rachel was also born at Moncornet and baptized at Sedan, probably in 1609, but the record has since been lost.
On 26 July 1629, Jean Mousnier de la Montagne left with his young bride on the Fortuyn for the island of Tobago, a Dutch possession in the Windward Islands, northeast of Guiana. His wife returned to Leyden in 1631, supposedly enfeebled by the climate of this Caribbean Island. Her husband probably returned in 1633 and appears on the register of University of Leyden a third time in 1636.
In Haag's Dictionnaire des familles protestantes de France, there is an entry for Jean de La Montagne, minister of the Gospel, who translated into French from English six religious tracts, published in France between 1633 and 1655. The fifth tract, " PensÚes chrestiennes sur nostre devoir envers Dieu, envers nos prochains et envers nous-mesmes," includes some information about the translator. In the introduction, he states that he was born in 1590 but he doesn't say where. However, the first of these tracts was published in Sedan, which suggests that Jean de La Montagne might have originated from that area. Is this "our" Jean Mousnier de la Montagne? Perhaps. We know that our Dr. Johannes was gifted in languages, writing letters and reports in Latin, French, Dutch, and English, and evidently speaking some Indian languages. As a Protestant, he was interested in church doctrine, and as a university student, he would have studied theology.
On 25 September 1636, Dr. J. de la Montagne sailed for America a third time, this time with his wife and three children, Jesse (aged 7), Jean Jr. (aged 4), and Rachel (aged 2), on the ship Rensselaerswyck, owned jointly by the patroon Kiliaen Van Rensselaer and by his wife's uncle, Gerard DeForest. The DeForest group on the ship consisted of the DE LA MONTAGNE family, as well as Rachel's brothers Henry and Isaac DeForest. Another child, Marie, was born to Rachel DeForest at sea, before the ship reached New Amsterdam on 5 March 1637.
In the New Netherlands, Jean Mousnier de la Montagne was generally referred to as Jan or Johannes LA MONTAGNE. His excellent education and high natural abilities enabled him to take an important place in the community in New Amsterdam. On Manhattan Island, he immediately set up business as a physician and a chandler. Henry DeForest died soon after arrival in the New World, and Dr. La Montagne was forced to take charge of the establishment of the DeForest tobacco plantation in mid-Manhattan. Eventually La Montagne assumed the proprietorship of the property, living on it with his family and producing a profitable crop of tobacco. The farm, called Vredendahl, included much of the upper half of what is now Central Park. He was driven off the land by the Indians and lived thereafter near the fort at New Amsterdam. He was the official surgeon of New Amsterdam, First Councillor for both Directors Kieft and Stuyvesant (1638-1656), commander of the troops on Manhattan Island (1640-1656), and a member of several peace commissions with the Indians.
Another child, Willem, was born in 1641 but in 1643 Rachel died. Four years later Johannes de la Montagne wedded Agniete Gillis Ten Waert on 18 August 1647 at New Amsterdam. The marriage record showed that both of them had been previously widowed. Agniete, daughter of Gillis or Jellis Jochems Ten Waert and his wife Beicken Schuts, was baptized in Amsterdam on 1 December 1611. She had married Elias Provoost at Amsterdam on 17 May 1633. Elias died in July 1636 and Agniete then married Arendt Corssens Stam in Amsterdam on 26 January 1638. Agniete and her son, Johannes Provoost, came to the New Netherlands with her second husband. After Arendt Corssens Stam drowned at sea, Agniete married for a third time. Agniete had children by all three husbands, but only Johannes Provoost, born in Amsterdam in 1636, lived past infancy.
Johannes de la Montagne was appointed Vice-Director of the entire colony in 1656, with special responsibility for Fort Orange (Albany) and the settlement of Beverwyck. At Albany, Dr. La Montagne was the chief administrator for a large area, including all the Dutch and Huguenot settlements along the Hudson Valley, from 1656 to 1664. His stepson, Johannes Provoost, acted as his clerk at Fort Orange. With the English take-over of the colony in 1664, Dr. La Montagne drops out of official records. As an official of the Dutch West Indies Company, he had to relinquish his position as Vice-Director. He did sign a loyalty oath to the new British government and Riker believed that he accompanied Peter Stuyvesant back to Holland in 1665 to defend the surrender of the colony. However, there is no mention of Dr. La Montagne in Dutch records, although Stuyvesant and his defense occupy many pages of official reports. Dr. La Montagne is, on the other hand, mentioned at least twice in 1665 in Albany. His stepson, Johannes Provoost, continued to live in Albany, and it seems likely that Dr. La Montagne and Agnietje continued to stay close to her only living son.
When Willem de La Montagne took over the care of his sister's orphaned children in 1673, the Wiltwyck Court records refer to Dr. La Montagne as being deceased. It is believed that he died in 1670 since his son Jean/Jan dropped the use of Jr. that year. It is not known where Dr. La Montagne is buried nor either of his wives, although it is probable that Dr. La Montagne and Agnietje were buried in the churchyard of the first Reformed Dutch Church in Albany, a location at the intersection of State and Market Streets, long since buried under landfills and modern construction.
Construction sites in the late 19th century at the location of the burial grounds of the original Beverwyck RDC are known to have turned up human bones. Some remains were later moved to Washington Park but never identified. With new interest in preserving the Dutch heritage at Albany, perhaps our Montagne Surname DNA project will one day be useful in contributing to the identification of the bones of Dr. Johannes de la Montagne.

Children of Jean La Montagne and Rachel De Forest are:
i. Jan Monier La Montagne30, born 1632 in Leyden, Holland; died Aft. 13 May 1672 in New Harlem, New York City; married Pieternella Pikes 14 Mar 1654/55 in Slooterdyk, Amsterdam, Holland; born 1634 in Holland.
Notes for Jan Monier La Montagne:
Jean Mousnier de la Montagne, Jr., usually known as Jan La Montagne, Jr., was born in Leyden, Holland, in 1632, the third son of Dr. Jean Mousnier de la Montagne and his first wife Rachel DeForest. He was baptized on 24 April 1633 in the Walloon Church of Leyden. In adulthood he became the oldest living son.
As a four-year-old, Jan traveled to New Amsterdam in 1636 with his family on board the Rensselaerswyck. He early joined the Dutch Church in New Amsterdam and taught school for a few months in 1652. Then he was made commissioner of accounts for the Dutch West India Company, a position which he held for about a year. Entering into partnership in trade with Vincent Pikes in 1654, he sailed for Holland that summer on board the King Solomon. There were a number of business matters for him to clear up. His mother's uncle, Gerard DeForest, head of the DeForest business ventures, had recently died. Jan also represented the heirs of Rachel DeForest in the division of the estate of his own uncle, Jean DeForest, who had died in Leyden before 1646. He had tobacco to sell on consignment for his uncle Isaac DeForest, with instructions to buy goods in return. He also came to stock up on merchandise for his own business venture and, it seems, to look for a wife.
On 14 March 1655, Jan La Montagne married Peternella Pikes at Slooterdyk, a village about a mile from Amsterdam. The marriage was performed by Pastor Meursius. Peternella, daughter of Jan Pikes and sister of Vincent Pikes, was born about 1634 in Holland. She stayed in Holland until her first child was born, later that same year, but Jan returned to New Amsterdam soon after the wedding.
Jan La Montagne bought his uncle Isaac DeForest's house on Marckveltsteeg in New Amsterdam on 26 September 1655, preparing for the arrival of his wife and baby. Jan was already making his mark as a solid citizen. He was the first enrolled on the list of the Great Burghers of New Amsterdam on 10 April 1657. He was Farmer of the Retail Excise [tax collector] in 1657 and he was made a Fire-Warden on 23 December 1658.
One of the first to take up land at the proposed New Harlem village (an enterprise in which he felt a special interest because of its location near his father's abandoned farm Vredendael), Jan sold his house on the Marckveltsteeg to John Verveelen on 27 June 1659 and moved to New Harlem.
Jan La Montagne lived the rest of his life at New Harlem, one of its most prominent citizens. He was chosen deacon of New Harlem RDC in 1660, schepen (magistrate) on 3 November 1661, schout (deputy sheriff) in 1662, and Town Clerk from 1662 to 1672. In November 1662 Jan La Montagne's term as deacon of the church expired, but he was re-appointed schepen at that time.
Peternella Pikes La Montagne must have died about this time. She left three small sons. With the children to care for, Jan La Montagne must have felt it was urgent to marry again quite quickly. He married Maria Vermilye (Marie Vermeille) on 10 June 1663. Dominie Selyns officiated at the double wedding, for the bride's sister Rachel Vermilye was married at the same time to John Terbosh. Both were daughters of Isaac and Jacomina (Jacobs) Vermilye, a French Huguenot family newly arrived in New Harlem. A little older than her new spouse, Maria Vermilye had been baptized on 2 August 1629 in Leyden, Holland.
In December 1663, Jan La Montagne took on the job of voorleser of New Harlem, a job which included all possible clerical duties: lay-leader of the church, school-master, reader of sacraments, record-keeper, and town clerk. The Dutch West India Company agreed in 1664 to help pay the salary of Jan La Montagne as voorleser at New Harlem, but shortly thereafter control of the colony passed to the English. Jan La Montagne registered clear disapproval of the change of government. He resigned as schout and refused to sign the oath of allegiance to the new British government. Instead he seems to have devoted himself as voorleser to the job of building a new church for New Harlem. He started the building campaign in January 1665 with a feast to honor ex-Director Stuyvesant, who departed for Holland six months later to defend his surrender of the colony. Jan La Montagne spent the next three years building the church, which was finished in January 1668.
Jan La Montagne's last official act as Town Clerk of New Harlem was to record a case of assault on 23 April 1672. Below this entry is written: "Here ends the register....of Jan de La Montagne....[who] died in 1672. Jan La Montagne made his will on 13 May 1672, but only the date of the record remains. He was buried in the little cemetery back of the church he had built.
His widow, Maria (Vermilye) de La Montagne, was left with three stepsons and four young children of her own, with one more expected. On 26 September 1675 she married the widowed Isaac Kip, son of Hendrick and Tryntie Kip. Isaac Kip was a yacht captain, engaged in the river trade between New Amsterdam and Fort Orange, but after his second marriage he lived in New Harlem. His youngest son, Johannes Kip, is on record as living with Maria Vermilye and possibly so did some of the other Kip children. Isaac Kip and Maria Vermilye had no children from their second marriages. Within three years of this marriage, Isaac Kip died. The magistrates of New Harlem were called upon on 25 July 1678 to make inventory of the household goods. Now widowed for the second time, Maria Vermilye continued to live in New Harlm for another eleven years. She was buried on 23 November 1689 in New Harlem, New York City.

In 1621, living in Leyden, Holland at that time, he enlisted some fifty or sixty Walloon and French Protestant families who were ready to emigrate to the New World under his leadership.
Jesse went to The Hague to see the British Ambassador, Sir Dudley Carleton, and to lay before him a plan of emigration. The Ambassador left an account of the interview, written on July 19, 1621, to the British State Secretary.
"There hath been with me of late, a certaine Walon, in the name of divers families, men of all trades and occupations, who desire to goe unto Virginia....I required of him his demands in writing with the signatures of such as were to bear part therin both of which I send your honor herewith."
After two years of negotiations, Jesse was persuaded to take his colonists to South America instead of Virginia.
