May 1996 issue Who was Henry Hudson Anyway? And What Happened to Him? H enry Hudson was an Englishman, possibly the grandson of a London alderman who helped found a trading organization, the Muscovy Company. Hudson was certainly an experienced seaman, commissioned by the Muscovy Company in 1607 to find a quick way from England to the "islands of spicery." He failed in that attempt, and again in 1608 each time foiled by ice floes as he attempted to find a fast northerly passage to "the east." In 1609 the Dutch East India Company, which had a monopoly on trade with the Orient and which wanted to shorten the lengthy and expensive voyage around the Cape of Good Hope, hired Hudson to renew the attempt on its behalf. They provided him with an 80-ton ship, the "Half Moon," and a crew of 20 a combination of Dutch and English sailors. The "Half Moon" sailed out of Amsterdam on April 4 or 6, and after a difficult journey along the coast of Norway and as far east as the bleak coast of Novaya Zemlya, turned west and headed for warmer climes. Reports claim that Hudson had a trying time with the crew, which threatened to mutiny, but persuaded them to help seek the alternative route to the lucrative spices. The quest for the North-West passage led first to the coast of Maine where members of the crew went ashore and cut timber to replace the mast of the "Half Moon." They fished and traded with the

Glossary of Exploration Terms Henry Hudson: Explorer Henry Hudson (1565-1611) was an English explorer and navigator who explored parts of the Arctic Ocean and northeastern North America. The Hudson River, Hudson Strait, and Hudson Bay are named for Hudson. Little is known about Hudson's early life. Hudson was hired by the Muscovy Company in 1607, to find a waterway from Europe to Asia. Hudson made two trips (in 1607 and 1608), but failed to find a route to China. In 1607, he sailed to Spitzbergen (an island north of Scandinavia in the Arctic Ocean) and discovered Jan Mayen Island (a tiny island off eastern Greenland). In 1608, he sailed to Novaya Zemlya (an island north of Russia in the Arctic Ocean). Hudson was then hired by the Dutch East India Company in 1609, to try to find the Northwest Passage farther south. On this trip in a ship called the Half Moon, Hudson sailed to Nova Scotia, and then sailed south. He found what is now called the Hudson River. Hudson is credited with discovering the location which is now New York City (although da Verrazzano had previously sailed by the area in 1524). Hudson sailed into New York's harbor on September 3, 1609 and noted what an excellent harbor it was. Hudson sailed up the river about 150 miles (240 km) and noted the abundance of rich land, but realized that this was not a waterway to India. His reports resulted in many Dutch settlements in the area.

FRtR Essays The USA and the Netherlands Henry Hudson The United States of America and the Netherlands 2/14 Henry Hudson: an Englishman in Dutch service By George M. Welling Index Previous page Next page In the summer of 1609 the ship the "Halve Maan" (Half Moon) sailing under Captain Henry Hudson under the flag of the Dutch East India Company searched in vain for a western passage to the East Indies. Using the maps of the Amsterdam cartographer Jodocus Hondius he had been searching for a Northern route through the ice. He did not search very hard it seems, for he believed in the theory that there was a passage through the continent itself. Since the Venetian navigator Giovanni da Verrazano had seen New York Bay - well, what was later to be called New York Bay - in the middle of the 16th century a number of scientists believed that that bay offered the passage through the continent. After giving up searching for the Norhtern passage Hudson decided to try his luck here. On the first of July 1609 he reached Newfoundland, from where he followed the coast southwards until he reached the bay in the beginning of September. The next day the Halve Maan sailed through the Narrows and in the afternoon sailed upstream on a river which would be named after the captain, the Hudson. After having sailed up as far as where later Albany was to be and seeing that the river was a river and not the desired passage to the Indies, Hudson gave up, completely disappointed. He did not even bother to sail to back Amsterdam, but went for England, which he reached in November. There another captain took over to bring the ship back to Amsterdam. But the Halve Maan was not a lucky ship: it perished later in the Indian Ocean on a trip to the East Indies via the traditional route around the Cape.

Glossary of Exploration Terms H HANNU Hannu was an ancient Egyptian explorer; he made the first recorded exploring expedition. Hennu is said to have sailed down the Red Sea to explore the southeastern areas of the Arabian peninsula (called Punt) around 2750 B.C (during Egypt's 2nd dynasty). He sailed to what is now part of eastern Ethiopia and Somalia. He returned to Egypt with treasures, including myrrh (a spice) and precious metals. Hannu wrote of his exploration in stone. (Hannu is sometimes called Hennu, which is also the name of a sacred boat of Egyptian gods). HARTOG, DIRCK Dirck Hartog was a Dutch explorer who was the first European to chart of the western coast of Australia. Hartog sailed from Amsterdam on the ship called Eendracht. He traveled around the Cape of Good Hope to Java, and then sailed on to western Australia. He landed in 1616 on a small island now named for him (Dirk Hartog Island). To mark his landfall, Hartog nailed an inscribed pewter plate (which noted details of his exploration and visit) to a post on the north end of the island; this area is now called Cape Inscription. Almost a century later (in 1696), the Dutch explorer Willem de Vlamingh landed on Dirk Hartogs Island. He found the commemorative plate, replaced it with a new inscribed plate, and brought Hartog's original plate to Amsterdam. Hartog's historic plate is now in the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam.
