Stained glass seems to have been used in the New Netherland: the
Albany Institute of Art has a 1656 window (from the First Reformed
Dutch Church of Albany), published in _Remembrance of Patria_, Blackburn
& Piwonka, 1988.  Ruth Piwonka has told me of a private house, with
'coloured window': if this is of interest, I will pass your address on.
