Johannes Abeel
Johannes Abeel (March 23, 1667—January 28, 1711) was an Albany, New York merchant and public official. He was the second Mayor of Albany.
==Early life==
The son of a prosperous merchant and landowner, Johannes (sometimes written John) was born in Albany on March 23, 1667.〔James Abeel Williamson, (Genealogical Records of the Williamson Family in America ), 1896, page 16〕 After losing his father at age 13, Johannes Abeel became a successful trader and merchant in Albany and New York City, establishing relationships with Native American tribes in Western New York that enabled him to acquire furs for resale in Albany. He exported the furs to London and received rum, rice, dry goods, and other items, some of which were for British soldiers garrisoned in Albany and Upstate New York, and most of which he resold at a profit.〔Henry Whittemore, (The Heroes of the American Revolution and Their Descendants ), 1897, pages 191 to 192〕
Abeel used some of his profits to take part in land purchase, resale and development, including the 1705 Westenhook Patent.〔Charles James Taylor, (History of Great Barrington: (Berkshire County,) Massachusetts ), 1892, page 5〕
