The most noted of the patroons became the founders of the great families, afterward so prominent in New York -- the Van Rensselaers, the Schuylers, the Livingstons, and others.2 The company and patroons were soon quarreling, and the dispute was carried to the States-General.
Like in the forearm, the arm is drained by the brachial veins (deep veins that accompany the brachial artery) and all its branches. In addition, the basilic and cephalic veins course upwards through the subcutaneous tissue and drain the superficial regions of the arm.
Structure[edit] There are two sets of jugular veins: external and internal. The left and right external jugular veins drain into the subclavian veins. The internal jugular veins join with the subclavian veins more medially to form the brachiocephalic veins. Finally, the left and right brachiocephalic veins join to form the superior vena cava, which delivers deoxygenated blood to the right atrium of the heart.
