Award-winning author Fawn Brokaw Doyle shares an amazing “Sheela,” her 8th great-grandmother, Sarah Rapalje. Sarah made history in 1625 as the first child of European heritage born in New York, when it was a small Dutch colony. Researching Sarah's life and the history of New Amsterdam (later New York City) provided her with an entirely different perspective on colonial America, one that extended beyond the Pilgrims and Puritans. Fawn's historical fiction novel, Salt People of the Cloud Houses, is a window into a multicultural economic hub, where women had a voice and played an active role in its financial success and proliferation.
