	Albany Section - Fort Orange
		Fort Orange was located five miles south of the confluence of the Mohawk River Valley and the Hudson River, at a spot where Indians would bring furs along an overland pass, thus avoiding the Cohoes Falls to the north.
		The handful of soldiers and traders located at Fort Orange were thus at the most vital nexus in the Dutch colony, the place at which the choicest product of the American wilderness-the beaver pelt-was transferred to European markets.
		Fort Orange suffered a setback in 1626, when a Mohawk party attacked the fort's commander, Daniel Van Crieckenbeek, and a group of his soldiers in nearby woods, killing Van Crieckenbeek and three of his men.

	Town of Colonie- Early history

		During the early years of the Van Rensselaer's patroonship most of the colonists remained in close proximity to Fort Orange probably as a result of their interest in participating in the fur trade, even though many of them had signed farm leases.
