In October 1669 Pieter Brouwer was assaulted by Gerrit Croesen and later
appeared bloodied at a friend's house. Pieter told the constable that if "hee
would not do him justice, hee would kill Gerrit." Pieter took the Oath of
Allegiance in September 1697 as a resident and native of Brooklyn. He was cut
off from his father's will with one shilling "for disobedience" but his children
inherited his share. He was among the soldiers from King's County Seat sent in
1690 to Albany. He must have followed his sons who settled in New Jersey, for on
October 10, 1700, Peter Brouwer of East New Jersey conveyed his share of his
father's mill to Abraham and Nicholas Brouwer of Brooklyn: "whereas there is a
corn mill in Brooklyn, called Gowanus Mill, bounded by land of Jacob Hansen,
Hendrick Vechte, Wolkert Bries, formerly in the tenure of Adam Brouwer,
deceased, true owner as by a conveyance from Tunis Nuysen, deceased, and heirs
of Jan Evertse Bout, deceased, etc. This indenture witnesseth that said Peter
Brouwer is the eldest son of said Adam Brouwer, deceased, etc."
