In 1678, the families proceeded to their new home, building simple wood houses near the Wallkill River. They would name their new settlement New Paltz, which was meant to honor the Germany state in which Mannheim exists, Pfalz-am-Rhein. As part of the patent they had received, twelve of the new settlers signed the document and were considered the founders, or patentees, of New Paltz. Jean and Abraham Hasbrouck were two of these signers, along with their father-in-law, Christian Deyo; their brother-in-law, Pierre "Peter" Deyo; brother-in-law, Simon LeFevre (who married Elizabeth Deyo); brother-in-law, Abraham DuBois (who married Margaret Deyo); Jean's son-in-law Isaac DuBois (married Maria Hasbrouck); Abraham and Isaac's father Louis; Simon's brother, Andries LeFevre; Hugo Freer; Louis Bevier; and Antoine Crispell, who married Maria Blanchan, daughter of Matthys and sister of Catherine (married Louis DuBois).
One of the first structures in New Paltz was a fort-like stockade, a requirement of Governor Andros for protection.

)
The families settled on a stretch of land, now known as Historic Huguenot Street, where many of their early homes were built. The wood-like homes were soon replaced by stone structures, that have stood until present day. The first patentee to pass away was Christian Deyo, and a cemetery was established on Huguenot Street not far from where the homes were. Many of the patentees would be buried in this cemetery, and Christian was the first.
Anne Deyo Hasbrouck would die in 1694, and not see many of the structures built with stone; her husband, Jean, died in 1714, having built a small, simple stone house. His brother Abraham would die in 1717, also having built a small house, and his wife Maria Deyo Hasbrouck in 1741. They would all be buried in the Huguenot Cemetery.
Abraham and Maria's son, Daniel, would add on to his father's residence, making it much larger and committing to upgrades for his family. While it was originally thought that the "Abraham Hasbrouck House" was built solely by Abraham, dating of the trees and remnants of the earliest parts of the house show that it was completed after Abraham's death, around 1720. This makes Daniel the likely contributor to most of what the home looks like today, and he resided there until around 1740.
Early Hasbrouck family
Jean and Anna Deyo Hasbrouck had at least six children:
# Maria Hasbrouck (1664-1719); married Isaac DuBois (1659-1690) on June 1, 1683

Abraham and Maria Deyo Hasbrouck had at least five children:

# Joseph Hasbrouck (1683-1724); married Elsie Schoonmaker (1685-1764) on October 27, 1705

. On July 17, 1873, Roswell married Helen Eldridge Carswell (1847-1950), and they had two daughters: Helen Margaret Fitch Cobb (1874-1978) and Eloise Maddren Fitch (1880-1902). Ezra's paternal aunt, Harriet Fitch (1840-1932), married his maternal uncle, John Cornelius Hasbrouck (1840-1901), and they had seven children, making them double first cousins of Ezra.
Ezra grew up on the Hudson River in Coxsackie on an estate built by his paternal great-grandfather, Roswell Reed. His father would move the family to Brooklyn, and would die there on January 11, 1888. By this time, Ezra had been out on his own, having graduated from New York University in 1894 and engaging in different business pursuits and becoming a significant customer of David Abercrombie's store, Abercrombie Co., starting in 1892.
On March 2, 1897, in Brooklyn, Ezra married Sara Huntington Sturges (1874-1960), daughter of banker Stephen Buckingham Sturges. They moved to California for a brief period before moving back east. They had a daughter, Edith Sturges Fitch, born in 1901 in New York City. The Fitch's would move to Kingston, New York, where Ezra opened a law practice. He would still frequently travel to New York and visit David Abercrombie's store, and by 1900, he had purchased a large share of the business. By 1904, they would become known as "Abercrombie and Fitch Co." Ezra wished for the company to become increasingly more public, while David did not wish for this to happen, instead wanting to keep it for the elite. Abercrombie sold out to Fitch in 1907, and with that, Ezra Fitch expanded the company with large success. He would remain in charge until 1928, when he sold his assets in the company, which is still known today as

Influence on Ulster County
The lasting impacts of the Huguenots and their arrival to Ulster County can be seen in present-day around the area, especially in New Paltz. The local high school possesses the nickname of "Hugies," short for Huguenots. There is a Manheim Boulevard, named after the town in Germany many of the families fled to before coming to the United States. Also contained in the town or village of New Paltz are Hasbrouck Park, a playground-based park located near the
SUNY New Paltz

Following a fire in 1884, the New Paltz Classical School offered to their land to New York State to create a
normal school
A normal school or normal college is an institution created to train teachers by educating them in the norms of pedagogy and curriculum. In the 19th century in the United States, instruction in normal schools was at the high school level, turni ...
. The creation of this normal school was overseen by a Board of Trustees of 14 individuals; one president, one secretary and 12 voting members. This board was instrumental in the creation of the normal school and establishing the roots for SUNY New Paltz. Every member on this board was a descendant of the original patentee families of New Paltz:
# Elting Tjerck Deyo (1830-1907)- member; descendant of the Deyo, Freer and Crispell families
# Solomon Deyo (1834-1904)- secretary; descendant of Deyo, DuBois, LeFevre, Hasbrouck
# Gilbert DuBois (1819-1886)- member; descendant of DuBois family
# Henry J. DuBois (1829-1907)- member; descendant of DuBois, Freer, Deyo and Hasbrouck families
# Henry Hasbrouck Elting (1850-1907)- member; descendant of DuBois, Deyo, Freer, Hasbrouck and Bevier families
# Jesse Elting (1838-1922)- member; descendant of DuBois, Deyo, Freer, LeFevre, and Hasbrouck families
# Philip LeFevre Elting (1836-1919)- member; descendant of DuBois, Deyo, Freer, LeFevre, Hasbrouck and Bevier families
# Josiah J. Hasbrouck (1843-1913)- member; descendant of Hasbrouck, Deyo, Bevier, DuBois, and LeFevre families
# Philip Bevier Hasbrouck (1825-1906)- member; descendant of Hasbrouck, Bevier, Deyo, and DuBois families
# Lambert Jenkins (1821-1901)- member; descendant of LeFevre, Deyo, DuBois, Hasbrouck
# Simon Peter Snyder Keator (1828-1899)- member; descendant of Freer family
# DuBois LeFevre (1824-1904)- member; descendant of LeFevre, Deyo, DuBois, and Hasbrouck families
# Ralph LeFevre (1844-1925)- president; descendant of LeFevre, Deyo, Freer, DuBois and Hasbrouck families
# Jacob Louw Snyder (1836-1913)- member; descendant of DuBois, Hasbrouck, and Deyo families
Through the efforts of this board, as well as the last names of the patentees of New Paltz, many of the buildings on the campus were named after the Huguenots, in an area called the Hasbrouck Complex. There was Deyo Hall, DuBois Hall, Hasbrouck Hall, Bevier Hall, Crispell Hall and LeFevre Hall; as well as the Hasbrouck Dining Hall and the Elting Gymnasium (the Elting family was not considered a Patentee family, but were significant in the early days of New Paltz; Roelif Elting, one of the first to the area, married Sara DuBois, daughter of Patentee Abraham DuBois and granddaughter of patentees Louis DuBois and Christian Deyo). However, these names were changed in 2019 after a long-term research project in which it was decided that due to the Patentees and their owning of slaves, that the buildings should not bear their names any longer.
Some of the street names in New Paltz reflect the families as well, with Huguenot Street being the most obvious. Other names that appear include Hasbrouck Avenue, Hasbrouck Place, Huguenot Court, Elting Avenue, Henry W. DuBois Drive (named for Henry William DuBois, mayor of the village of New Paltz from 1958 to 1975), Duzine Road (douze is French for 12, meant to represent the 12 patentees), and Holland Lane (several Huguenots fled to the Netherlands to avoid persecution).
