[edit] Ft Orange / Ft. Nassau dates are contradictory

This article says Ft. Nassau was founded in 1608 and abandoned in 1617. I don't have any authoritative sources, but most of the secondary sources (see external links) suggest it was founded in 1614. Because there is a conflict and no references cited, I'm removing the date since it really belongs in the Fr. Nassau page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by FrankSanMiguel (talk • contribs) 21:46, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
