The originator of the Veeder Family in America was employed by the East India Company as a seaman on the ship 'Prince Maurice' which plied between Amsterdam and New Netherlands. He settled in New Amsterdam in 1652. It appears that he soon moved to Fort Orange, where on September 4 1654, he sold to 'Albert Gerritse', carpenter, a certain lot in Manathas, next to Adrian Vincent, for thirty beavers. On July 18/28, 1665, he is mentioned as owning a lot in Albany, "North of that of Johannes Provoost, who sells his lot to Jan Evertse." He was one of the original purchasers, of the Schenectady Patent and on Feb 27, 1670/1, while living there, sells to Joris Arissen (Van der Baast) his pasture land at Schenectady. He evidently moved back to Albany, for on November 27 1673, Johannes De Wandalear leases him a house, having a large bake oven, in Willemstad (Albany) for three years, beginning May 1 1674 and ending May 1 1677. In December 1675 "the Honorable Commander (of Fort Orange) and the Commissaries resolve to double the Burger Guard and have every night three sentries on guard, to wit: one at the Guard House on the hill, one near the cannon at the church and one at the house of Symon, the baker, opposite Harmon Ganesvoort's where a Corps de Garde shall be kept also." On March 5 1678/9, he is listed as one of the persons "to keep in repair the posts set around the town fence," distance one rod. On September 26 1679, he had a horse stolen from him by one Jacob, the negro of Sweer Teunise. On January 20 1679/80, his wife, Engelite, was cited before the Court for slander, where after a hearing, she made suitable apology on the 22nd. On November 2 1682, he exchanges "the first lot (called DeHoek) on which he dwells at Schenectady, with Jacob Caspersz (Halenbeck) for house and lands on the Normanskil, who on June 26 1683, sells to Symon his lands on the Normanskil, called Tawassouthaw". His will dated January 8 1696/7 mentions his wife Engeltie, who was named executor, and the children as given below. Personal property, lands in Schenectady and on the Normanskil called Tawassathaw, are disposed of. The will was not proved until April 13 1713 and on May 20, 1714 testamentary letters were granted to his three sons Gerrit, Johannes and Volkert, the fourth son, Pieter having died in 1709.

Harmen Albertse Vedder was the first settler of the name in the Mohawk Valley. He was a trader in Beverwyck before the year 1657. In 1660 he returned to Holland. In 1661, as agent for Dirk De Wolfe, merchant of Amsterdam, he erected a salt kettle on Coney Island, New York, which being claimed by the people of Gravesend he brought suit before the governor and council to make good his claim, and being beaten abandoned the enterprise. In 1663 he leased his "bouwery" at Schenectady to Simon Groot for six years. In 1668, being in Holland with other merchants from the province of New York, he purchased goods and chartered the ship "King Charles" and obtained permission from the King of England to send the ship and goods to New York. In 1667 he lived in Albany. In 1672 he bought land in Schenectady. In 1673 he was one of three magistrates for Schenectady. He did not show proper respect for the magistrates of Albany, and also pretended to have the right to trade with the Indians. For his presumption he was reprimanded and warned "to regulate himself accordingly". He purchased the village lot of the heirs of Reiner, son of dominee Schaets, of Albany, after his massacre by the Indians in 1690. He sold to Rutger Jacobsen his house and lot "gelegen in de doorpe Beverwyck, breet voor en achter ses en dertich voet, lanch vier en sestich voet en met aen ganch van vyfte voet end breet lanch tot aen kil welcke gansch is gelegen tusschen Goossen Gerritsen en den vercooper & c". This lot was on the south side of State Street, between Green and Pearl Streets, and extended back only to the Rutten kil, now arched over and used as a sewer. The price of this house and lot was 2,325 guilders. In 1660 he returned to Holland; 1661 as agent for Dirk De Wolfe, merchant of Amsterdam, he erected a salt kettle on Coney Island, which being claimed by the inhabitants of Gravesend, he brought a suit before the governor and council to make good his claim to it, and being beaten, abandoned the enterprise; 1663 leased his bouwery at Schenectady to Symon Groot for 6 ys., at 500 guilders rent; 1664 Harmen Vedder, William Teller and Sander Leendertse Glen petitioned Gov. Stuyvesant to have their lands surveyed at Schenectady; 1668 being in Holland with other merchants from the province of New York, he purchased goods and chartered the ship King Charles and petitioned the king of England for permission to send the same to New York, which was granted; 1667 he lived in Albany in a house belonging to Dirk De Wolfe of Amsterdam, who, having returned to Holland, Gov. Nicolls ordered the house and lot to be confiscated; 1672 he bought of Dirk Hesselingh de bouwery "(daer den voorschr. Dirk Hesselingh op woont op Schenechtede), soo het landt, also huys, schuer ende twee berghen, & c., soo als het de voornoemde Hesselingh van Jurriaen Teunissen gecocht heeft gehadt, & c.", to be delivered to Harmen Vedder the coming May 1, 1672, together with the seed in the ground; this bouwery, No. 8 on the bouwlandt, comprised 12 morgens and 130 rods of land and now forms the homestead of Col. D.D. Campbell of Rotterdam; 1672 Harmen Vedder and Barent Ryndertsen sold to Claese Janse Van Bookhoven and Ryck Claese Van Vranken "een sekere stuck landts geleeghen over de Rivier aen Canastagioene", consideration 550 skiples of wheat; 1673 he was appointed one of the three magistrates of Schenectady; 1674 was schout (mayor) of the village, and with the magistrates was reprimanded for not showing due respect for the magistrates of Willemstadt (Albany), and for pretending to the privilege of Indian trade; he was particularly complained of because of his conduct towards Capt. Schuyler and was warned "to regulate himself accordingly". His village lot on the north side of Union Street, was the same as occupied by the late Doct. Alexander G. Fonda, 51 ft. front and 404 ft. deep Amsterdam measure, extending to Front Street; be purchased it of the heirs of Reinier, son of dominee Schaets of Albany, after his massacre by the French and Indians in 1690. His son Johannes occupied it after his death, which probably took place about the year 1715, for on the 3d of May that year, Arent Vedder, his brother and sister petitioned the common council of Albany for the renewal of a release ("burnt at Schenectady when it was cut off") of a lot owned by their late father Harmen Vedder deceased, lying on the south side of the city of Albany.
The following information is from p. 196-199 of A History of the Schenectady Patent in the Dutch and English Times; being contributions toward a history of the lower Mohawk Valley by Jonathan Pearson, A.M. and others, edited by J.W. MacMurray, A.M., U.S.A. (Albany, NY: J. Munsell's Sons, Printers, 1883). It is in SCPL's Schenectady Collection at Schdy R 974.744 P36, and copies are also available for borrowing.
He was an early settler in New Netherland, residing mainly at Beverwyck, even after he had purchased a bouwery at Schenectady. As agent of Dirk De Wolfe, merchant of Amsterdam, in 1661, he erected a salt kettle on Coney Island, which was claimed by the inhabitants of Gravesend. Vedder and one Pieterse laid claim to the island, but in a suit brought before the Governor and Council, were beaten and probably abandoned their enterprise. After the Province passed into the possession of the English, De Wolfe returned to Holland; and in 1667 his house and lot in Albany, then occupied by Vedder, was ordered to be confiscated by Governor Nicolls. He was a trader, at least so long as he remained in Albany and made several voyages to Patria, - one in 1660, and another in 1668, on which occasion, being in Holland, he, with other traders, having purchased goods and chartered the ship King Charles, petitioned the King of England for permission to send the same to New York, which was granted. Vedder's bouwery in Schenectady was rented in 1663 to Symon Groot, for six years at a yearly rent of 500 guilders. In the spring of 1672, it is probable he gave up business in Albany, and retired to Schenectady, for in February of that year he purchased bouweries No. 8 of Dirk Hesselingh, to be delivered to him May 1, 1672, and the year following he was appointed one of the three commissaries or magistrates of the village. In 1674, the magistrates of Schenectady were reprimanded for not showing due respect for those of Willemstadt [Albany], and for pretending to the privilege of the Indian trade, and Harmen Vedder, schout, in particular, was complained of because of his conduct towards Capt. Schuyler, and waswarned "to regulate himself accordingly".
His children were probably born in Albany; but the records of the church there prior to 1684 being lost, neither the dates of their baptisms nor the name of his wife, are known. It is only known that in 1668 he was brother-in-law of Johannes Provoost, secretary of Albany.
At the date of his death, which happened before June 18, 1714, five sons and one daughter were living and had families of their own. Although Harmen Albertse was among the earliest proprietors of Schenectady, his name does not appear as grantee or patentee in the records until 1672, Gerrit Bancker received the patent for bouweries No. 6, in 1664 and 1667; although in fact he had but a half interest in the same as appears by the lease given in 1663, by Bancker and Vedder to Symon Groot for these bouweries, and from the fact that in 1701, Vedder sold the easterly half of hindmost lot No. 6, which seems to have been his share in the above mentioned patent, to his son Albert for 91-16. That he was an early proprietor also appears from the fact that he with Sander Leendertse, Willem Teller and others, petitioned the Governor in 1664, to have their lands surveyed. Hindmost farm No. 6, lying between the river road and the river was unfit for a hofstede by reason of the annual floods, but the purchase of the adjacent bouwery No. 8, gave him a convenient and pleasant site for his house and farm buildings beyond the reach of the highest floods. This farm was originally allotted to Marten Cornelise Van Ysselsteyn who sold it to Cornelis Corn. Vielè, from whom it passed successively to Jurriaen Teunise Tappen, to Dirk Hesselingh and finally Feb. 1, 1671/2 to Harmen Vedder, who purchased with "de bouwery (daer den voorz. Dirk Hesselingh op woont op Schaenechtede), soo het landt als huys, schuer ende twee berghen & c. soo als het de voorn & c. Hesselingh van Jurriaen Teunissen gecocht heeft gehadt to be delivered to Herman Vedder the coming 1st May, 1672, together with the seed in the ground. Vedder promised to pay 20 whole beavers to Jurriaen Teunissen for the same. In 1701, Harmen Albertse owned a pasture of two and a half morgens lying between Front street and the river, beginning 509 feet Eng. east of north street and extending easterly along Front street 210 feet
Eng. to the New York Central railroad; in 1714-18 this lot belonged to his son Albert. Outside of the limits of Schenectady he owned several parcels of land besides several houses and lots in Albany. Jan. 31, 1657, he bought of Rutger Jacobsen, "syne huys en erff gelegen in de doorpe Beverwyck, breet voor en achter ses dertich voet, lanch vier en sestich voet en met aen ganch van vifte voet en breet lanch tot aen kil welcke ganch is gelegen tusschen Goossen Gerritsen [van Schaick] en den vercooper" & c., consideration 2325 guilders. This lot was on the south side of State street, Albany, between Green and Pearl streets, and extended back only to the Rutten kil now arched over and used as a sewer; there was included in this sale Jacobsen's brewery which was to be delivered to Vedder the following November. In 1665 he owned a house and lot on the hill in Albany next to Cornelis Steenwyck's. He contracted in 1662 to buy a house and lot next to Philip Pieterse Schuyler's, for 1600 guilders. Aug. 21, 1670, he sold to Robert Sanders a parcel of land at Stone Arabia [Lansingburgh?]. And on Oct. 31, 1677, he and Barent Reyndertse sold "to Claes Janse Van Boekhoven [de Brabander] and Ryck Claase [Van Vranken] a farm in Canastagioene on the north side of the Mohawk river, consideration 550 skiples of wheat".
After his death, his children on the 3 May, 1715, petitioned the common council of Albany for the renewal of a release (burnt at Schenectady when it was cut off) of a lot owned by their father Harmen Vedder deceased, and lying on the south side of Albany, which petition was granted.
Many of the early Dutch owned slaves. Thomas Burke in his book Mohawk Frontier: the Dutch Community of Schenectady, NY 1661-1710 gives a list of slaveholders and numbers of slaves owned in 1690 and 1697; Harmanus Vedder is listed as owning one slave in 1697.

Through Catrina/Trijntje and Gerrit's marriage in addition to other property, Gerrit obtained possession of lots in the village on the north and west corners of Union and Church streets, which remained in the family several generations. The lot on the west corner came to him by Otten's purchase from Van Woggelum; that on the north corner was purchased by Reyer Schermerhorn, of Ludovicus Cobes; - 100 feet on Union street and 223 feet on Church street. By his will he divided this lot into four smaller ones and gave to his sons Hendrikus and Symon the lot on the corner, 50 by 180 feet, to his daughter Catriena, the lot of the same size next west having a front on Union street of 50 feet; - to Cornelis a lot on Church street 40 by 100 feet 180 feet north of Union street and another 51 x 100 feet north of Cornelis' lot to Hendrikus and Symon. A large portion of these lots fronting on Church street belonged to the estate of the late Col. Stephen Yates. On December 9 1718, the Dutch Church conveyed to him a lot on the south side of State street," bounded north by the street, 52 feet, east by the lot Volkert Symonse [Veeder, his brother] 142 feet, west by the lot of Adam Smit 140 feet, and south by land belonging to the afore mentioned church 44 1/2 feet wood measure." Subsequently this lot came into the possession of Thomas Brouwer Bancker, who built upon it the house and later occupied by Mr. John Lake and a blacksmith shop next east, which portion later belonged to the estate of James Walker deceased. Besides the above lots within the village, Gerrit Symonse owned sever parcels of land on the bouwland among which were the two farms numbered nine, patented to his father, four small gardens on the lowland between Mill creek and the canal and the mill privilege at "Veeder's mill" and the land adjacent. He built a mill at this locality quite early. On the 19th Feb. 1717/8, he received title to the lands on both sides of the creek, (then called Sand kil) from Vrooman's mill-right (at the Brandywine mill) to and north of the gasworks on Centre street; this conveyance gave him 100 yards on each side of the creek, and that portion lying between the mill and the city along Centre street was called "Symon's meadow." In 1762 the Veeders obtained from Isaac Vrooman (the owner of the Brandywine mill lot) a conveyance of 600 yards of land and stream above "Veeders mill" and this remained in the family until 1812, when Judge Gerrit S. Veeder conveyed the mill right and land at the "cotton factory" so called, to the "Schenectady Manufacturing Company." He made his will in which he was joined by his wife, Catrina, Mar. 12 1746, proved July 8 1755 - making the following disposition of his estate: "-To his eldest son Helmer the hindmost lot of lowland [No. 9], which he now has in possession, - 12 morgens more or less, - lying between the land of Harmanus Vedder and Sander Glen, except a morgen that lies on the Kings' highway [River road], - item two gardens lying next Cornelis Vielen's pasture, that part next Ephraim Smith's; - item those two gardens which lie next above the foregoing gardens, which came from his grandmother" [Otten] - To Henderikus his "corn mill and half part of the saw mill, with the house, barn, stables and all belonging thereto lying on the Zant kil, - the whole pasture as it lies in fence called the vley belonging to the right of the above written house and mills excepting six morgens of the above written vley beginning at the village and next the pasture of Jan Barentse Wempel; " -To his son Symon "the six morgens of the vley above mentioned. -To sons Hendrikes and Symon "four morgens of lowland lying in the Hoeck on the bouwland [part of foremost farm No. 9] next the path or Kings highway; also my house and part of the lot in the village of Schenectady next the new Dutch church, on the corner of the street [north corner of Union and Church streets] , being in breadth on the south side [on Union street] fifty feet and in length along the [Church] street on the east one hundred and thirty feet to the lot which I below give to our son Cornelis, and a lot on which my barn stands, being fifty feet broad along the [Church] street on the east side and one hundred feet long to the lot of Nicolas Groot, all Amsterdam measure; - To my four daughters Engeltie, Ariaantje, Annatie and Magdalena, all the rest and remainder of my land in the Hoeck which I have not above devised, being four morgens to each one equal morgen; - To son Cornelis, a lot lying in the aforesaid village near the new Church, lying to the south of the lot and barn that I gave above - To my son Symon and Hendrikes, in breadth on the east side along the [Church] street forty feet and length from the street to the lot of Nicolas Groot one hundred feet; - To our sons Hendrikes and Seymon and Gerrit, son of our son Helmer I give all our land in the Jersey at a place called the Ganse Gat; - To Catharina Vedder, daughter of my daughter Engeltie, wife of Johannes Albertse Vedder a lot of ground lying between the house and lot of Nicolas Groot and the house and lot which I have herein above devised to our sons Hendrikes and Seymon being in breadth on the south side [on Union street] fifty feet and in length on both sides one hundred and thirty feet to the lot above devised to my son Cornelis, - A little pasture remaining from the pastures which we herein above have devised to our son Helmer as it lies in fence next to Cornelis Vielen's pasture and the church pasture and Jan Vrooman's in the corner where they go into the vley; also a morgen of woodland lying on the hill next the mill - right to the south of Jan Barentse [Wemps] woodland, which sometime ago was cleared, also a morgen of lowland lying on the road on the hindmost lot of lowland [No. 9] hereinabove devised to my son Helmer on condition that my son Helmer shall have a waggon way over this morgen of land from his bouwland; and our sons Hendrikes and Symon shall have the right to drive their waggons to the saw and corn mills through the little pasture as the path now runs through it; to Gerrit Van Antwerpen, four feet in breadth of ground lying by his house and lot on the south side thereof and one hundred feet long. Gerrit Symonse Feb. 9 1733/4, conveyed half of his sawmill to his son Wilhelmus [Helmers?], who lived just south of the mill near the Veeder burying ground. By the contract between Helmer Otten's widow and Jan Janse Bleecker and Hans Hendrickse, guardians for her daughter Catrina, made July 1 1676, said widow, agreed to pay her daughter as soon as she was of age or married, "ye somme of 225 whole beaver skins for the payment of which said Ariaantje doth bind the farm [No. 4] at Schenectady," &c. The money in Holland was to be equally divided between mother and daughter, - a very comfortable estate for a young woman in those times. These notes are partly from "The Veeder Papers" and other parts from material that can be found at the Schenectady Historical Society.

Albert was taken prisoner bij the French and Indians and brought to Canada during the massacre at Schenectady in 1690. He made his will at Febr. 8 1751.
His village lot, on the north side of Union street, is thus described in a deed given June 3, 1701, by Reyer Schermerhorn and others, trustees. "Whereas Reynier Schaets was in peaceable possession of a certain lot in Schenectady, the patent to which is thought to have been destroyed in 1690 by the French, and as said lot was sold by Gideon Schaets, eldest son of said Reynier Schaets to Albert Vedder, and as said Vedder now desires a conveyance, therefore, said trustees of Schenectady conveyed to said Vedder said lot, having to the east the lot of Symon Groot, to the west the lot of Johannes Teller, north and south, the common highway [Front and Union streets], in breadth before and behind 51 feet, and in length 404 feet, wood measure". This same lot was in possession of Arent Van Curler in 1662, and after his death in 1667, it passed into possession of Benjamin Roberts, by whom it was sold to Reynier Schaets. He owned and occupied a farm on the north bank of the Mohawk river at what was called Lusigh hoek, a short distance above the lower Glenville bridge, late the property of Thomas Walmsley. At this point was the "Lower Ferry", until 1808, when it was removed to Van Vorst's the next farm below, and without the limits (one mile), prescribed by the Mohawk Bridge charter. He also inherited his father's pasture on Front street; in 1759 this lot belonged to Albert Johannese Vedder.

Johannes was the Representative from Tryon County in the Provincial Congress. He left a will dated May 16 1798 and proved January 18 1803.
Until Johannes was thirty-six years of age in 1750, he resided at his native place, Schenectady. He then moved to Caughnawaga (Fonda, New York) where he became a prominent and influential citizen taking an active and leading part in every movement which had as its object the uplifting and advancement of the community. This was especially true with respect to his attitude toward the Colony of New York during the critical period of the Revolutionary War. It is at his house that the first public meeting in the Caughnawaga township was held for the purpose of denouncing the British Government. At this meeting a liberty pole was raised and it was this occasion which caused the first bloodshed in Tryon Co. That has become historically famous through the act of Col. Guy Johnson striking one of the persons present, Jacob Sammons, who was Johannes' son-in law.
Johannes Veeder was not only an illustrious citizen of Tryon County but he also had an exceptionally distinguished family. In fact, it is almost without parallel in the territory embraced within the bounds of old Tryon County, even to the present day. He himself, was not only a member of the State Legislature, but of a family of four sons, one was a member of the Provincial Congress and Lt. Col. of Militia in the Revolution; three were members of the Legislature for long periods; two were Presidential Electors and one was a County Judge.
"Johannes Veeder was by occupation a tailor, but after his removal to Tryon, or Montgomery County, about 1750, he became a large land owner, having 1400 acres in one tract adjoining the village of Caughnawaga, on which he built several mills, some of which were burned by the Indians and Tories in the time of the War of the Revolution, together with a brewery, tannery, four farm buildings, together with barns and out buildings attached. His losses were also large in personal property, as were those, too, of his sons. One or more of them being employed by the Gov't to buy commissary stores, such as boots, shoes, etc., and having a large stock on hand, they were all destroyed by the enemy, being a total loss to them, as the Gov't never refunded their cost."
"Johannes Veeder was of genial habits, strictly pious, a member of the Reformed Dutch Church, a large contributor towards building the old stone church of Caughnawaga (erected about 1763) and one of the first Elders chosen on the formation of that society and ever after, during his life, was one of its leaders and main supporters. He was the father of a large family, having four sons and four daughters who were married and left numerous offspring, so that at the death of the aged father there were 102 living descendants of the second and third generations, 29 having died before his decease."
"Of his landed estates, there was a partition made some years before his death, into four equal parts, as to value, etc. and deeded to his sons. The eldest, Volkert, was given the land on the west; Abraham, the next; and John on the east, he being the youngest. Their farms were all bounded on the south by the Mohawk River."
"He was one of the very foremost citizens of that whole section, an enterprising man, zealous in all that pertained to the welfare of the country and what was considered wealthy for those times. He was a member from Tryon County of the first Session of the State Assembly for 1777 and 1778".

Johannes and Catharina were in Canada West by 1799 when Daniel was born in Adolphustown near Kingston, Ontario. She had a sister Mary who married Daniel Cole and they lived in Adolphustown.

There were other families of the surname of Delong on Big Island in the early 1800's who were relatives of Catharina. Their children names changed in Vader.

Nicholas Veeder was apparently a Schenectady boat builder of some reputation in the 1790s, although there is no evidence of this fact in the historical record of that city. Veeder, who died in 1862 at the age of 100, is immortalized in the history of Schenectady, or more correctly Glenville, as the last surviving veteran of the Revolutionary War. In the early 1800s, he converted his rustic Scotia home into a museum of war relics, known locally as the "Old Fort." He was noted for his ability, even at an advanced age, to point out the locations of historic sites of the Revolutionary era as no others could. Barely old enough to enlist, at age 16, he joined the 2nd Regiment, Albany County Militia [the Schenectady regiment], late in 1777 and during the closing years of the Revolution was dispatched on several excursions into the middle Mohawk Valley. He was stationed at Fort Paris [Stone Arabia] for a month in 1779, and sent on a month-long expedition to Canajoharie and Fort Plain the following year. This service gave him a particular knowledge of that region and may have exposed him to batteau transport over a decade before the 1792 expedition. While we have no record of Veeder's transformation from soldier to boat builder, the papers of the Western Inland Lock Navigation Company indicate that, for Schuyler at least, Veeder represented the logical person to fill his needs for a variety of watercraft. On August 21st, 1792, the very first vessel commissioned by the canal company, a "new three handed batteau," was delivered by Veeder at the boatyard in Schenectady. In late May of 1793, Schuyler ordered another boat, presumably a batteau, from Veeder. Either this boat, or another, was completed in late June of that year. In July of 1795, another batteau was needed by the navigation company for a trip to Oswego, and again Nicholas Veeder was the builder. Early in 1796, Schuyler required two heavy-duty scows,27 50 feet long, for hauling sand and lime on the Mohawk for the construction of the Rome Canal.28 His agent was instructed "on your return to Schenectady inquire of Mr. Veeder, a boat-builder there..." Some difficulty was encountered finding the proper oak planks, which would be delivered to "Mr. Nicholas Veeder." But in mid-summer it is recorded that Veeder declined the contract to build the scows and that no other builder could be located in Schenectady to undertake the project. Whether Veeder built other boats for Philip Schuyler, or for anyone, is unrecorded. But for a few short years 200 years ago, Nicholas Veeder occupied a position of preeminence in serving the transportation needs of the emerging canal era.

Elihu Vedder is an American artist who never lived in Britain, although his work is so much in the same spirit as that of British Victorian artists and especially the Classical School. The socalled 'American Pre-Raphaelites' tend to be landscape painters, but Elihu Vedder, in his realist pictures showing classical, mythological and ideal scenes, seems to very close to painters across the Atlantic. In reading Vedder's letters and the family documents as well as the Digressions, his personality emerges as a compound of extroverted vigor, volatility, jocularity and flirtatiousness with an introverted fascination with dreams, a preoccupation with death, a tendency toward melancholia, and an appetite for the macabre.
Vedder was born in New York City, showed an early inclination to painting, and studied under the genre painter Tomkins H. Matteson (Mathieson) before continuing in Paris for a few months in 1856 under Picot, and then in Florence. He returned in 1861 to New York, but settled permanently in Rome in 1865. For the rest of his life he travelled frequently in Europe and back to America. Vedder returned to the United States at the outbreak of the Civil War in 1861. He supported himself by illustrating comic valentines and calisthenics books and by drawing for Vanity.

Marr. circa 1830 in Schenectady NY Agnes Swart, born on 07-04-1814 in Rotterdam Schenectady NY, died circa 1852.

After the death of Volkert's wife he left New York for California. News of gold discoveries in British Columbia undoubtedly lured Vedder north. By 1860, Vedder with his sons Adam and Albert traveled to the Cariboo gold fields. His son John died in California. The family returned to the Chilliwack area where Vedder pre-empted 160 acres of land. He later added to these holdings. Vedder's land hugged a mountain that now bears his name, Vedder Mountain. Vedder was a strong member of the Methodist Church. His retirement years were spent at his son Adam's house where he passed away peacefully in his 90th year.

From this marriage:
   1.  Adam Swart Vedder, born circa 1833, died on 08-10-1905 in Chilliwack BC Canada.
Marr. (1) circa 1879 Alathea Asselstine, born circa 1829, died 1892 in New Westminster BC Canada. Wid. of John Sicker.
Marr. (2) on 08-08-1894 Elizabeth Alice Jackman, born circa 1863 in Owen Sound Ont. Died on 14-09-1940 in Chilliwack BC Canada.

Adam Vedder was 26 years old when he arrived in British Columbia in 1860. He was an American from New York State who traveled west with his brothers, Albert and John and father Volkert. He spent several years in Hope and North Bend working as a builder and butcher, before pre-empting land in the Sardis area in 1868 and became a prominent Sardis dairy farmer. Vedder served as a Warden of the Township of Chilliwack, a Member of the Provincial Parliament and as a Postmaster (1888-1894). He opened the first post office in his home at the junction of Coqualeetza and Skowkale roads (now Vedder and Knight roads). Volkert Vedder and his son Adam Swart Vedder who lent their surname to several geographical points: Vedder Mountain, Vedder Peak, Vedder Crossing, Vedder River and Vedder Canal. The Vedders hailed from Hudson Valleys Schenectady, a Dutch colonial settlement founded in the 17th century in New York where their ancestors were among the first colonists. They left the gold fields in California for new opportunities in BC around 1860 and eventually settled in the Fraser Valley. Initially, Volkerts son Adam made a living as teamster, going up the Fraser Canyon and beyond, hauling freight and supplying gold miners at places such as Barkerville. Information on Chilliwack pioneer Volkert Vedder, mostly based on newspaper reports, are not uniform on the year of arrival in British Columbia. It is fairly safe to conclude it was in 1858 and that his sons came up from California two years later. Volkert who left his New York hometown for Chicago in the 1840s, had been an advance party for them before when he traveled overland with oxen to California around 1850, and back to get his sons. Another source had Adam travel to California via Panama. Perhaps, both routes wered used but on different occasions. Volkert Vedder was lured to the gold fields, first in California and in the Cariboo in B.C. He mined for gold in California but also was a teamster, a business his son Adam continued in BCs Cariboo. Volkert (a widower) worked with three sons, Adam, John (who died in California) and Albert (who died in the Cariboo in 1876). Local historian Horatio Webb in 1925 wrote that Volkert Vedder arrived in the area in 1858 with another pioneer named Jonathan Reece. Upon arrival at Sumas Prairie, they met a party of surveyors who were mapping a boundary line between the U.S. and British North America, as Canada then was called. On the way to the Cariboo goldfields, the men stayed over at the local Indian reservation Squihala and mined that winter at Emory Bar. Travel then meant hardship, there were no bridges and often for miles they had to blaze their own trail.
Connection to Yarrow and Sardis Adam and Albert Vedder came to B.C. in 1860 to join their father. They camped for a while at Sumas Prairie before going to the Cariboo and start their transportation business. Adam made history in 1865, when he was the first to use a team of oxen to move freight (someone else tried it with camels). By 1868, the goldrush had waned, and Adam and Albert joined their father in the Chilliwack area where they as a family eventually preempted as much as 1,520 acres of land. Volkert originally had pre-empted 160 acres on the Sumas Prairie in 1862 and farmed on the site where now the village of Yarrow is located. A news item in the daily called British Columbian reported on September 19 1866, that Mr. V. Vedder (then in his 4th year, he was the first one to start farming) had 15 of his 200 acres under cultivation, had raised 400 bushels of grain, 130 tons of hay, and owned 40 head of cattle, 30 hogs, 200 poultry, 2 barns, sheds and a dwelling. Twelve farmers together cultivated 653 acres of land and had made 818 tons of hay that summer. Of the Vedders, Volkert was co-founder of the local Methodist Church in which he was active for de-cades. He died at the age of 89 in February 1898. His son Adam intermittently served the Township of Chilliwack, which he co-founded in 1873, as councilor and in 1879 as War-den. His last term as councilor was in 1896 but in 1894 he was appointed to complete an unfinished term as Liberal MLA in Victoria. Council minutes of the Vedder years show a deep concern for issues involving roads and bridges in the community. Flood-ing, which happened regularly, was another concern. Particularly the flooding of 1894 caused great harm to the community when all the bridges washed away. In the following years they started to build dikes along the rivers. It was not until a pumping station was installed, equipped by a Dutch-made Stork pump, that Sumass Lake was drained and the threat of flooding subsided. Only the Sardis village site where Adam Vedder resided in later years, was safe from extreme run-offs. Adam Vedder in 1888 was appointed the first postmaster of the village of Sardis which he named after one of the seven churches in Revelation 1(:11). The post office was located at his home at the junction of the Coqualeetza and Skowkale Roads (now Knight & Vedder).
Vedder died in 1905, at the age of 71, survived by Elizabeth (Jackman), his second wife, and a step-daughter. Adams brother Albert pre-empted land in the area in 1871. He died and was buried in the mining town of Barkerville.
