Captain Tol in the First Anglo-Dutch War

There is really not very much information available to me about Hendrick Tol, who served in the First Anglo-Dutch War. Here is on piece of what I have:

Captain Tol
On November 10, 1653, Captain Tol's ship, the Moerian, was listed as having been lost in the
storm on October 29, 30, and 31, 1653. There is a notation that half the men
were saved. [1DW6, p.175]

  • Ship: Moorin
  • date 1653
  • 28 guns
  • Amsterdam Directors
  • dimensions: 125ft x 29ft x 12.75ft
  • guns: 10-12pdr, 8-8pdr, 8-6pdr, and 2-3pdr

    I am now convinced that this cannot be Hendrick Tol, as he served too late into the 17th Century for him to be the same man.
