Parents of Maria Willemse Brouwer: Willem Hendrickse Brouwer was born about 1625 at Nijkerck, Gelderland, Netherlands to Hendrick and Marities Pieterson Bobsbeem Brouwer. Elisabeth Arnoldusen Drinckveld was born in 1625 at Prinsenland, Rotterdam, Netherlands to Aerts and his wife Drinckveld. The name Brouwer is the Dutch word for brewer. Willem and Elisabeth were married in November 1648 at Grote Kerk, Breda, Noord-Brabant, Netherlands and their children were: Willem, Arnoldus, Eva and Phillip - all born in the Netherlands. Children born in America were: Maria, Lysbeth, Willem (again) and Hendrick. The family came to New Amsterdam from Qerland, Holland before June 4, 1653 and after 1650. They were property owners in New Amsterdam before moving to Beverwyck (Albany) in 1657. Willem most likely was a beaver trader like his father before him. He was sued in court a couple of times for trading with the Indians, which was forbidden. Also, he was sued in 1657 over claims that he did violence in his own house. He forcibly drove off the plaintiff with a broomstick when he came to collect for a pair of shoes. Willem died August 1, 1668 at Albany, Albany County, New York and was probably buried there. Elisabeth died in 1670 at Albany and most likely is also buried there.

- 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.
