Hi Fred,
Hamil threw together the book in a few months. You need to read her letters. They make it very apparent that she didn't know what she was talking about. See this 1977 rebuttal by the Cooley Family Association of America:

DNA and other evidence has also shown the "Dutch lineage" to be false. In all likelihood, they were English.
