The photographer here, in 1929, is Wilhelmina Niewenhous *1895. She is youngest child of Siebrand Niewenhous *1848, the immigrant and builder in New York. She kept up correspondence with her cousins, both Nieuwenhuis and Dooper in Friesland, at least at Christmas. In a letter of 1952 to my grandmother, she mentioned “Angeline”, meaning Engeltjie Nieuwenhuis, whom she said is “old and in failing health…" |

| The Haffen family |
| |
| Mathias Haffen was born 23 may 1814 in Bavaria. He came to America at age 18 in 1832, emigrating through the port of New York City. According to his obituary in the New York Sun, Haffen first spent some time in North Carolina and worked in the Navy Yard. However they may have meant the Gosport Navy Yard in Norfolk, Virginia, as North Carolina had no such facility at the time. In 1835 he returned to New York and worked as a laborer on the Harlem Railroad. When that job was finished Haffen moved to Newtown Creek, Long Island where he worked on a dairy farm. In 1840 he went into the milk business for himself. |
| At around this time he met and married Catherine Hayes, an Irish immigrant in New York. She was apparently not from a well-to-do family, and lacked the education to sign any more than an "X" on her petition for citizenship. But by accounts she was Mathias's beloved, and together they had ten children, including John (born 1847) and twins Mathias and Martin (born 1849), who would grow up to inherit his father's business. |
| Finally in 1856, at the age of 42 Haffen established the Haffen Brewery in the Village of Morrisania (which in 1874 was absorbed into the Bronx). He ran the firm for fifteen years, after which he turned over the management to his sons, and retired a wealthy man. |
| Haffen died at the age of 78, on March 10th, 1891. His sons ran the brewery for another 23 years, then sold out to the mammoth Jacob Ruppert Company. |

| 1908 - 1914 J. & M. Haffen Brewing Co. 386/398 East 152nd Street |
| The brewery was sold to Col. Jacob Ruppert in January of 1914 and was scheduled to be closed. The brewery was torn down in 1917. |
