The Dutch Reformed Church was situated in the middle of the city’s main intersection from the 1650s to 1806. Enlarged about 1715, the Dutch church shown on the left, and in all contemporary community iconography, was the largest building in colonial Albany and was described by a number of visitors. The Dutch church clearly was colonial Albany's premier social institution!

Benjamin Winne was son of another Livinius Winne -
Livinius Winne by Stefan Bielinski
"Livinius / Levinius Winne was born during the mid-seventeenth century. He was the son of New Netherland pioneers Pieter and Teunjte Adams Winne. He grew up at the family mill in Bethlehem and at his father's trading house in Bevewyck/Albany. In 1684, he was left a share in his father's extensive estate. By the early 1680s, he had married Teuntje Martens Van Buren (This is incorrect) By 1687, the marriage had produced four children who were baptized at the Albany Dutch church where he was a member and frequent baptism sponsor. However, Teuntje Martens died and Livinius married Willempie Viele (widow of Simon Schermerhorn) in June 1699. By 1705, three more children had been baptized in Albany. Livinius Winne was a tenant farmer in Rensselaersyck (probabaly on Castle Island) and in Albany where he owned houses and lots. He served on Albany juries and as firemaster. In 1699, he joined his Albany neighbors in swearing allegiance to the king of England. Livinius Winne died in November 1706".
