You say: " I was also able to find an ancestor of my grandmother who was born in 1620, and came to New Amsterdam, a Dutch settlement at the southern tip of Manhattan Island, around 1640."

Similar to my family. Pieter Claesen arrived about the same time as your grandmother. Born 1625. Frisean Islands of the coast of Netherlands-Germany. Indentured servant. When the British came, had to change his name to Peter Wyckoff. Wyckoff house is still in existence on Manhattan Island. Do a google.

My grandmother was 8th generation still carrying the Wyckoff name.
