== Biography ==
:"In 1632 there "happened in this town [Charlestown] the first known thief that was notoriously observed in the country, his name was John Sales who having stolen corn from many people in this scarce time was convicted thereof before the Court, & openly punished, & all he had by law condemned & sold to make restitution" . On 1 April 1633 "John Sayles being convicted of feloniously taking away corn & fish from diverse persons the last year & this, as also clapboards, &c., is censured by the Court after this manner: That all his estate shall be forfeited, out of which double restitution shall be made to those whom he hath wronged, shall be whipped, & bound as servant with any that will retain him for 3 years, & after to be disposed of by the Court as they shall think meet. John Sayle is bound with Mr. Coxeshall for 3 years, for which he is to give him œ4 per annum; his daughter (Phebe) is also bound with him for 14 years. Mr. Coxeshall is to have a sow with her, & at the end of her time he is to give unto her a cow calf" . On 4 March 1633/4 the court ordered "that John Sayles shall be severely whipped for running from his master, Mr. Coxeall" <ref name ="Bio"/>
: "He freed himself from all that trouble and migrated to New Amsterdam, where he acquired a second wife (the first having died) and considerable property. He was known as "Old Jans" (45 years old when he died) and had quite a reputation. "Old Jans, according to history, seems to have been hard to get along with in his elderly days, and he is charged with shooting his neighbor's hogs." <ref name ="Bio">Quote from Source: [http://genealogyandfamilyhistory.yuku.com/topic/135/John-Sales-aka-Sayles-Seals-Seales-Celes#.V1SvYZF97IV John Sales]</ref>
: In his nuncupative will, dated 17 April 1645 : "Jan Celes ... being wounded and lying sick abed" bequeathed half his estate to "Tonis Nysen, his brother-in-law"(son in law !) and half to "his wife Marritjen Roberts"; his wife's share was for life only, then to revert to "Tonis Nysen or his children or heirs"<ref>New York Historical Manuscripts: Dutch, Volume II, Register of the Provincial Secretary, 1642-1647 (Baltimore 1974), pp. 311-13</ref><ref>Theunis Nyssen is called in this translation of the will "brother-in-law," but the Dutch term can also be rendered as "son-in-law," which is correct here.</ref><ref name ="Bio"/>
