This work is the culmination of over two decades of research into the ancestry of Antony Jansen van Salé who appeared in the Dutch colony of New Netherlands in 1630. His father, Jan Jansen van Haarlem, became known to the world as Morat Raïs (the Younger) a corsair located in Salé, Morocco. This work traces the connections between Jan and the Royal House of the al-Hasani sheiks of Morocco to their origin in the town of Yanbu on the Red Sea. The ties to the dynasties of the Abd al Wadi of Tlemcen and the al-Hafsi of Tunis are also covered. The al-Fihri dynasty that stretched from 7th century Egypt to 11th century Southern France is also included. They were related to the Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) and appear to be related to one of the wives of Jan Jansen van Haarlem.
