NOTES: Adam Brouwer sailed in 1641 to Brazil in the ship Swol as a soldier in
the service of the West India Company. He came to New Netherlands in
1642, for when he took the Oath of Allegiance in September 1687, being
then a resident of Brooklyn, he made the statement that he had been in
this country for 45 years. He settled first in New Amsterdam where he
bought a house and garden lot from Hendrick Jansen, blacksmith, on 21
February 1645. On that some day he had given a power-of-attorney to
collect money due him from the West India Company, which he repeated on
21 September 1646. At his wedding party on 21 March 1645, Domine
Bogardus criticized Director Keift. Together with Isaac de Forest, Adam
Brouwer built and operated at Gowanus a flour mill on land patented 8
July 1645, to Jan Evertse Bout. The will of Adam Brouwer Berchoven of
"Bruckland" was dated 22 January 1691/92. He left his wife Magdalena
his entire estate. Sons Pieter and Jacob, and daughter Aeltje were
"cut off with a shilling for disobedience, but their children are to
inherit their parents' share." He named his other children: Mathys,
William, Adam, Abraham, Nicholaes, Mary, Fytie, Helena, Anna, Sarah, and
Rachel. He left 3 pieces of eight to Adolphus, the son of William; and
1 piece of eight each to Magdalena, daughter of Matthys; Magdalena,
daughter of Pieter; Vrouwtje, daughter of Fytie; and Magdalena, daughter
of Mary. Executors were Barent van Tilburg and William Nazareth.
Witnesses were Henry Sleght, Cornelis Siebring, and John Fredericks.
