Francis Adrian Van der Kemp

(Van der Kemp, Francis Adrian, 1752-1829)

Portrait of François Adriaan van der Kemp, unattributed, 1787. Collection of the Luce Center, New-York Historical Society.

François Adriaan van der Kemp or Francis Adrian Vanderkemp (4 May 1752 in Kampen – 1829 in Barneveld, New York) was one of the Dutch radical leaders of the Patriots, a minister and publicist who gave the Patriot movement a Christian tint in his blazing speeches. Having been a promising student in Groningen, Franeker and Amsterdam, he led the local militia (exercitiegenootschap) in Wijk bij Duurstede and ended up in captivity. Van der Kemp was released on 9 December 1787 for a ransom of 45,000 guilder and emigrated to the U.S.A. (From Wikipedia)
