New Amsterdam settlers were individuals who populated the Dutch colony established in the early 17th century on the southern tip of Manhattan Island, present-day New York City. Founded in 1624 by the Dutch West India Company, the settlement served as a trading post and a hub for commerce. The settlers included a diverse group of people, including Dutch, Africans, and various other European nationalities, contributing to the colony's multicultural character. In 1664, the English captured the settlement and renamed it New York.
