Katherine J. C. Carbille speaks about the life and legacy of the German-born colonist Jacob Leisler. Leisler purchased land that the Huguenots settled which became New Rochelle, New York. Leisler eventually became Lieutenant-Governor of New York before being executed for treason. His name was later cleared and now he is honored in New York.
