John Lincklaen

A bronze statue of Lincklaen by Dexter Benedict was installed in 2018 in Lakeland Park in Cazenovia, New York.

[3][4] In 1790 John Lincklaen and Gerrit Boon were sent to evaluate land tracts for Theophile Cazenove who was the representative of the Holland investors.

[3] John Lincklaen settled in the newly established community of Cazenovia and was appointed as a land agent.

[3] In 1818 this stock venture was purchased by John Lincklaen after extended negotiations with Paul Busti, the Agent General for the Holland Land Company.

The couple built a mansion in Cazenovia along the lake, named Lorenzo, that is now a New York State Historic Site.
