Flushing, a neighborhood in the New York City borough of Queens, was home to the Lenape before European settlement. On October 10, 1645, it was established on the east bank of Flushing Creek under a charter from the Dutch West India Company as part of New Netherland, governed from New Amsterdam. It was named Vlissingen, after the Dutch port that was the company's base, and by 1657 residents called it Vlishing. The English form, Flushing, took hold, since many early settlers were English who had come down from Connecticut.
Unlike other towns in the colony, Flushing's charter guaranteed freedom of religion as practiced in Holland, "without the disturbance of any magistrate or ecclesiastical minister." In 1656, however, Director-General Peter Stuyvesant issued an edict against harboring Quakers. On December 27, 1657, the townspeople approved a protest known as the Flushing Remonstrance, which argued for freedom even for "Jews, Turks, and Egyptians" and declared that no infringement of the town charter would be tolerated. The farmer John Bowne then held Quaker meetings in his house, was arrested and deported to Holland. There he persuaded the Dutch West India Company to let Quakers and others worship freely, and the Flushing Remonstrance is remembered as an early milestone of religious liberty in America.
