(de) Pieter Corneliszoon Plockhoy (also Pieter Cornelisz Plockhoy van Zierikzee or Peter Cornelius van Zurick-zee; c. 1625, possibly in Zierikzee, Netherlands – c. 1664–1670, Lewes, Delaware) was a Dutch Mennonite and Collegiant utopist who founded a settlement in 1663 near Horekill (Lewes Creek) on the banks of Godyn's Bay (Delaware Bay), near present-day Lewes, Delaware. The settlement was destroyed within a year via an English raid. Almost nothing is known of Plockhoy's childhood and early life, but it is reasonable to assume he came from Zeeland and had a Mennonite background. In the early 1660s he lived at Amsterdam, where he became associated with the struggle of the liberal Mennonites, who were influenced by Collegiantism and were led by Galenus Abrahamsz de Haan, against the conservative Mennonites. Before embarking for the New World, Plockhoy unsuccessfully petitioned Oliver Cromwell in 1658 for support in establishing various ideal settlements in England. It's possible that he worked in the circle of the intellectual Samuel Hartlib, who was certainly aware of his utopian plans. Plockhoy published political pamphlets addressing contemporary social problems in 1658 and collaborated with Franciscus van den Enden in plans for founding a new society in New Netherland. Some contemporary writers that were critical of his views alleged that Plockhoy defended polygamy. Plockhoy moved back to the Netherlands in 1661. He entered into a contract with the Dutch government to create a settlement along the southern part of the Delaware River. In 1663 Plockhoy and 41 settlers made their way to Delaware Bay and established their colony near the former Zwaanendael Colony, the site of present day Lewes, Delaware. Plockhoy and his followers, which included Otto Wolgast a later magistrate and early settler in the town, arrived onboard the Dutch ship Sint Jacob. It is not known whether he survived the 1664 English raid on his settlement, but he is generally thought to have died within a few years of that event. Plockhoy's wife, his blind son, Cornelis, and several of the other original colonists continued to live in Lewes. In 1694 a blind man named Cornelis Plockhoy moved to Germantown, Pennsylvania. Although older sources usually identified this man as the aged Pieter Cornelisz Plockhoy, current writers generally agree that this was his son, Cornelis. (en) Pieter Corneliszoon Plockhoy (ook Pieter Cornelisz Plockhoy van Zierikzee of Peter Cornelius van Zurick-zee, (Zierikzee, c. 1620 - Lewes (Delaware), c. 1664-1670) was een Nederlandse mennoniet of collegiant, dat is niet te zeggen, die in 1663 een utopische leefgemeenschap oprichtte aan de oevers van de baai van Delaware, om en nabij de Hoerenkil, en dicht bij het huidige Lewes, Delaware (USA). Deze nederzetting werd binnen het jaar vernietigd tijdens Tweede Engelse Zeeoorlog. Plockhoy had weinig op met hiërarchie of de adel, en was een voorloper van het socialisme. Hij bepleitte een scheiding van kerk en staat, een 6-urige werkdag, een democratische bestuursvorm, en weduwen- en wezenzorg. Volgens sommige eigentijdse bronnen verdedigde Plockhoy de polygamie.
