Walloon is the best word.

On March 29, 1624 the West India Company's ship, Nieu Nederlandt departed Amsterdam with the first wave of settlers for the New World. While a Dutch ship, the 30 passengers were Flemish Walloon families. They arrived in May 1624 and the site of the future city of New York was formally occupied by the West India Company. Eight men were left on Nut Island, now known as Governor's Island, while the rest were taken up the Hudson River to what was then Fort Orange and is now Albany.
