The Van Voorhees Family Crest
Steven Coerte Van Voor Hies came over to the New Netherlands, in 1660, from the hamlet of Hies, near Ruinen, Drenthen province, Holland. He settled at Flatlands, L. I. In 1872, an extract of the arms was delivered to the family by an heraldic office in London. Colonel Van der Dussen furnished the same coat of arms to the Reverend J. C. Schenck, as being that of the Voorhis family of Holland.
