Early life and emigration

Saborowski, a Lutheran, was born in 1638, perhaps in the Prussian town of Angerburg (after 1945 Węgorzewo). After the Thirty Years' War upheavals in Europe, he decided to emigrate to America, as one of the pioneers of European colonization within the area of present-day New Jersey. In 1662 "Albert Saboriski, from Enghestburgh Prussia" arrived on board the Dutch ship De Vos to New Amsterdam (present-day New York City).

New Amsterdam

Due to his good knowledge of Native American languages, he became a translator and mediator in negotiations between the colonists and Native American tribes. He came into possession of a large estate within the Province of New Jersey and built a family residence in Hackensack. He also served as Justice of the Peace in newly established Bergen County.

Family

He married Machtelt van der Linden in 1676 and five sons were born from this relationship: Jacob, John, Joost, Christian and Henry. Albert died in 1711 and was buried in Hackensack. He originated America's Zabriskie family, which produced many eminent descendants, such as businessman Christian Brevoort Zabriskie (for whom Zabriskie Point in Death Valley is named) and actress Grace Zabriskie.

gollark: ... as if.
gollark: Skynet's `send` and `receive` functions handle the connection and listening stuff automatically, yes.
gollark: <@94122472290394112> EXT vs Skynet:Skynet:* wildcard channel - allows listening to all system messages* API may be nicer to use, as you don't *need* to call skynet.listen anywhere - you do need to call EXT.run somewhere, in parallel or something* Skynet's backend (not the CC side) assigns each connected socket an ID, and tells you which IDs recevied messages. This is not much use.EXT:* messages only readable by people on same channel or server operator* somewhat more complete API - allows closing channels - Skynet can do this but the CC side doesn't handle it
gollark: Yeeep.
gollark: No, because the storage system just lets you pull out items by their name.
