"By 1715 Johannes had moved his family to Albany where over the course of time another thirteen children were to be born. Also in that year Johannes was enrolled as a private in captain Johannes Mingael's company of militia. Queen Anne's War had ended in the previous year, but peace with Indian allies of the French was still far from secure. In 1722 Johannes was elected assistant alderman in Albany's first ward, and in 1731 and 1732 he was elected to the same office in the third ward. Also in 1731 he was made a freeman of the city. Originally a title from the feudal times, the term "Freeman" in Albany conferred certain taxation and voting privileges on men of property who were elected to the title by the city council upon paying a license fee of six shillings."
