[2] - Second Flat.
This farm beginning at a little above " Reghel brugse kil " \ was first taken up by Jacobus Peek and Isaac Du Trieux about 1670, and patented to them in 1677.
It contained twenty-two and one-half morgens or forty-five acres and twenty acres of woodland.
In 1706, Maria widow of Isaac Du Trieux had permission from the trustees of Schenectady to sell to Jacobus Peek eight morgens of land on this flat.
Johannes and Jacobus, sons of Jacobus Peek, became the owners of the whole tract. It is now owned by John McCue on the west end, Abraham A. Bratt on the east end.
