  • Derck Brouwer was possibly born between 1699 and 1703.
  • He lived at Hempstead, Queens Co., New York.1
  • A "Deric Brevar" was on a 1738 muster roll for the Queens County militia. "Derick Brewer" was named as an adjoining property owner in 1742 (Records of the Towns of North and South Hempstead, Long Island, NY 8:294, 429).2
  • Although called "possibly" a son of Derck Brouwer and Hannah Dawes (NYG&B Record 138:259), it has to be said that he has the weakest claim to this parentage of any of Derck and Hannah's sons. Derck is only found in the records as an adult at Hempstead, Long Island, while the remainder of the family is in New Jersey. In the absence of a family of his own, and/or an association with other descendants of Jan in the form of wills or deeds, Derck's place in the descent from the family progenitor Jan Brouwer of Flatlands can not be determined at this time. He is placed here for now only because of the above mentioned reference. My own opinion is that he more likely belongs to another family descended from Jan Brouwer of Flatlands.

  • William A.D. Eardeley: "He lived in South Hempstead, Long Island, New York: at Lynnbrook, not far from the Old Sand Hole Cemetery: he may have lived 1760 to 1762 in Success, now Manhasset, New York, but this is doubted."3
  • He appeared on the census of 1790 at South Hempstead, Queens Co., New York, called Dirck Brewer, with a household of 4 males over 16, a male under 16, 2 females, and 2 other free persons.5
  • According to Eardeley, no will or administration of the estate of Dirck Brower has been found.3
  • Dirck Brouwer and Dirck Brouwer were both born in New Jersey within a three year period, and some records found pertaining to a Dirck Brouwer of this period could apply to either one. Caution is advised.

  • In 1792, Elias moved the family to Otsego Co., New York (to what would become Oneonta), on the south side of the Susquehanna River.6,12
  • Elias Brewer, town of Cambridge, Washington County, NY, farmer, on February 7, 1792, purchased from Tunis F. Vanvechten and Abraham Vanvechten of the City of Albany, Albany County, NY, Esquires, land on the southerly side of the Susquehannah River, lot #5, in the tract granted to Alexander Wallace and others, 216 acres. Witnesses D. Paris and Garret G. Vischer. Recorded October 17, 1799. Page 128-129.13
  • He appeared on the census of 1800 at Franklin, Delaware Co., New York, with a household of 1 male under 10, 1 male 10-15, 1 male over 45, 1 female over 45. He is enumerated next to David Brewer. Francis Brewer is also found in Franklin.14

  • Research based upon DNA testing conducted by the Brewer DNA Project, affiliated with FamilyTreeDNA and using DNA sample taken from known, documented descendants of Elias Brewer, have confirmed that Elias is a descendant of Johannes/Jan Brouwer, and that he is not a descendant of Adam Brouwer as has sometimes been claimed.
  • Direct descendants of Elias Brouwer are represented by kits no. 65025, no.46313, and no.44994, found at he Brewer DNA Project. See http://web.mac.com/brewpe/iWeb/JanBrouwerDNA/Pedigrees.html and http://www.familytreedna.com/public/BrewerDNA/.
  • A short description of the changes in the political boundaries of the towns and counties in which Elias and his sons lived is helpful. In 1778 Harpersfield (then in Montgomery Co.) extended all the way down the Susquehanna River to the Pennsylvania line. The town of Kortright was formed from Harpersfield in 1793. It extended to the Susquehanna but was bounded on the south by the town of Franklin, and after 1800 by the new town of Meredith. In 1797 Delaware County was formed from parts of Ulster and Montgomery Counties. In 1817 the town of Davenport was created from the western portion of Kortright and a southernmost section of Maryland adjoining the Charlotte (Johnson) Patent. In 1817 Davenport extended to the Susquehanna and down to Franklin. After 1822 the northern section became part of Otsego County (itself created in 1791). For more details see "Davenport's Population" by Alan M. Strout for the Davenport Historical Society, online (see footnote for link). Also see the Wikipedia article on Otsego County.18

Bogardus Collection, Anneke Jans and Everardus Bogardus Descendants Association, Wilmington, Ohio. Privately printed. 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, so why it was included in the reprint edition defies explanation. The account of Pieter Adamsz Brouwer is also in error, and there may be other errors with the earlier Brouwer generations. Latter generations, however, 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 generations. The work is a valuable accounting of this Brouwer/Brewer family through the 1800's. An addition to the original, by Sharon Brewer Dodge, includes her 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. p.19. Hereinafter cited as Three Hundred Years in America.

Bogardus Collection, Anneke Jans and Everardus Bogardus Descendants Association, Wilmington, Ohio. Privately printed. 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, so why it was included in the reprint edition defies explanation. The account of Pieter Adamsz Brouwer is also in error, and there may be other errors with the earlier Brouwer generations. Latter generations, however, 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 generations. The work is a valuable accounting of this Brouwer/Brewer family through the 1800's. An addition to the original, by Sharon Brewer Dodge, includes her 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. p.19. Hereinafter cited as Three Hundred Years in America.

  • Elizabeth Abrahamse Brouwer was baptized on 19 June 1695 at Old First Dutch Reformed Church, Brooklyn, Kings Co., New York; her father's name is given as Abraham Berckoven.2
  • She married Jacobus Bennet, son of Jan Willemse Bennet and Aeltje Wynants, before 1720.1
  • Elizabeth Abrahamse Brouwer witnessed the baptism of Elizabeth Bennet , daughter of William Bennet and Lea Peterson, on 27 May 1756 at Reformed Dutch Church, New York City, (sponsors Jacob Bennet and wife Elizabeth Brouwer).3
  • Elizabeth Abrahamse Brouwer witnessed the baptism of Jan Bennet , son of Jurian Bennet and Jannetje Brouwer, on 7 November 1756 at Reformed Dutch Church, New York City, (sponsors de vader [the father], Elizabeth Brouwer, h.v. Jakob Brouwer [which is probably an error for Jacob Bennet, Elizabeth being the child's grandmother]).4
  • Still mentioned as a sponsor in 1758. She had five children baptized at Staten Island. Elizabeth's marriage to Jacob Bennet was the first in a number of Brouwer-Bennet marriages.2
  • Elizabeth Abrahamse Brouwer witnessed the baptism of Jacob Bennet , son of Johannes Bennet and Elizabeth Van Pelt, on 29 October 1758 at Reformed Dutch Church, Bucks Co., Pennsylvania, (sponsors Jacob Bennet and Elizabeth Brouwer).1
  • Ledley (NYGBR 95:24, Gen. of the Bennet Family) identifies Jacobus Bennet's wife, Elizabeth Brouwer, as Elizabeth daughter of Nicholas Brouwer and Jannetje Caljer. This is an error, as Nicholas Brouwer's daughter Elizabeth clearly married John Parcell, with the sponsors for some of their children being members of the Nicholas Brouwer-Jannetje Caljer family. It is apparent from the appearance of Abraham Brouwer, Jr. as a sponsor for this couple's daughter, Elizabeth in 1727, that Elizabeth, wife of Jacobus Bennet, is actually the daughter of Abraham Brouwer and Cornelia Caljer.
