This work contains errors, among them the false account of Anneke Jans descent from William of Orange. This account had been proved a fantasy long before 1988, and its inclusion in the reprint edition is unfortunate. The account of Pieter Adamsz Brouwer is also in error, and there may be other errors with the earlier Brouwer generations. Latter generations are recounted by descendants who lived in the latter part of the 19th and first half of the 20th centuries, and the ancestors who they describe were their parents and grandparents. In addition to the original work of Bertha C. Spencer, the "re-publisher" Sharon Brewer Dodge, includes her own Brewer lineage with the incorrect claim that her ancestor, Willis Brewer of North Carolina, was a son of Jacob Brouwer (b.1709) and a grandson of Sijbrandt Brouwer & Sarah Webber of New York City (this claim has no basis in fact). There is also a short note from William B. Bogardus who questions this connection. There is no factual evidence that would tie Willis Brewer of North Carolina (late 1700s) to any of the Brouwer families of New Netherland. p.16. Hereinafter cited as Three Hundred Years in America.

  • Gerrit Brouwer was probably born before 1726.
  • He witnessed the baptism of Gerrit Brouwer , son of Abraham Brouwer and Elizabeth Ackerman, on 10 January 1742 at Dutch Reformed Church, Hackensack, Bergen Co., New Jersey, (sponsors Gerrit Brouwer, Jenneke Brouwer).1
  • Possible son, but of which of Uldrick Brouwer's wives cannot be determined with certainty. Gerrit Brouwer stood as sponser for a baptism within this family and this is the only record of him known thus far. No previously known "Gerrit Brouwer" can be identified as a possible sponsor. The name Gerrit is found in Adriantje Pieterse family (he mother being Lysbeth Gerritse) and this is a consideration in the tentative placement of Gerrit in this family.

  • She married Edmund Turner circa 1747.
  • Hannah Brouwer died in 1815 at Shawangunk, Ulster Co., New York, ; at the home of her son, Cornelius Turner.4
  • Another source says Hannah Brouwer died in 1822 at Shawangunk, Ulster Co., New York, at the home of son Cornelius Turner.5,6
  • Also known as Nauchy.7
  • She was baptized as Annaetjen daughter of Cornelius Brouwer and Maria Raffel.3
  • She is decribed as the heir in law (of one twentieth part of a mill seat on the Bronx River) to Nicholas Brouwer (d.1749) and wife of Edmund Turner (d.1805). Hannah was allegedly insane from (at least) 1801 until her death in 1822. She left several children and grandchildren, one of her surviving children was Jemima Thorp (d.1832) mother of Cornelius D. Thorp and married to Peter Thorp when nineteen years of age. Peter died in 1832, and Jemima died in 1842.8
  • She is named in her husband's will on 30 June 1806 to receive all her husband's real estate, together with one feather bed and bedding. (No mention of her mental condition).9
  • In April 1851, Elizabeth Caywood, daughter of Hannah (Nauchy) Turner, gave testimony as to the ancestry of her mother. Elizabeth states that her mother, Hannah, also known as Nauchy, was the only child of Cornelius Brower and Molly De Roselle. Hannah was born in Tuckahoe, Westchester Co., N.Y., about 1730. She married Edmund Turner at Tuckahoe at age 19, and died at Shawangunk in 1816. Edmund Turner had died at Plattekill in Ulster County, prior to Hannah.
    Elizabeth further states that Cornelius was the son of Nicholas and Yannetje Brower, both resided at Bronx River, Westchester Co., N.Y. Cornelius died about 1733 at Bronx River.
    Elizabeth states that the family tradition named eight children of Nicholas and Yannetje Brower: Adolphus, Nicholas, Cornelius, Nazareth, Jenny, Hannah, Lana, and Anna. She understood that Nicholas was a millwright. She thinks that Nicholas went to North Carolina after the Revolution (this cannot be the first Nicholas as he was certainly deceased).
    Mary (De Roselle) Brower survived her husband, Cornelius, and married second, David Demarest (lists five children).7

Hendrick of the Raritan named his eldest son Adam, and his eldest daughter Marietje, undoubtedly for his parents, the usual Dutch custom. He apparently had no son named Matthys."1
