Who did the dutch surrender in new Amsterdam in 1664?

Peter Stuyvesant [c. 1612 - August 1672] was the Dutch governor who surrendered to the English in 1664. He did so in his capacity as Director-General of the Colony of New Netherland, at the future New York. His surrender of the Dutch colony to English control was demanded on August 30, 1664. He signed the necessary treaty on September 9.Note that Peter Stuyvesant was the governor (Director General, actually) of New Netherland, not New Amsterdam. New Amsterdam was a colony in the greater New Netherland settlement. There was never a governor (or Director General) of New Amsterdam.
