Biography

Jean's father was a Walloon signer of the 1621 Round Robin petition, promising "to go into Virginia and there to live in the same condition as others of His Majesty's subjects, but in a town of incorporation by themselves." But many of those signers never took that particular planned journey, and ended up in New Netherland instead.

Jean was born and he was baptized at April 24, 1633 at Leiden, Zuid Holland, Netherlands. His name was Jean Mousnier , no mentioning of the last name de la Montagne at the baptism, his father was named Jean Mousnier and mother Rachel de Foree.
