region called Krefeld that lies in the lower Rhineland Valley about 3 miles
from the Rhine River. It is roughly thirty-five miles northwest of Cologne and
twelve miles northwest of Dusseldorf. On a modern day map, Krefeld is a city in
Germany near the borders of the Netherlands. In the 1600's Krefeld was a part
of the Principality of Orange-Nassau and was ruled by William, the III of
