Jonas Bronck (alternatively, Jonas Jonson Brunk, Jonas Jonasson Bronck, Jonas Jonassen Bronck) (died 1643) was an immigrant to the Dutch colony of New Netherland after whom the Bronx River, and by extension, the county and New York City borough of The Bronx are named. A mural at the Bronx County Courthouse depicting Bronck's arrival was created in the early 1930s by James Monroe Hewlett.
