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.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 found a summary of the case at the Wake Forest University Law Library: 57 U.S. 247, 16 How 247 (1853). She wrote to the Supreme Court and received basic information on the case and the suggestion to contact the U.S. Court for Southern District of N.Y. for supporting evidence. Eventually she received 91 pages from the file. The suit commenced in 1850 and went on to the Supreme Court in 1853. So much for some background.

  • Helena Adamse Brouwer was baptized on 31 October 1660 at Old First Dutch Reformed Church, Brooklyn, Kings Co., New York; parents "Adam Bouer and Magdalena Jacobs of the mill," no sponsors.3
  • She married first at Brooklyn, Kings Co., New York, on 6 November 1681 David Hendricksen (banns 22 Oct 1681, recorded at New York and Flatbush) "David Hendrickszen, j.m. Uyt Engelant, en Helena Brouwers, j.d. Van de Gauwanus, beijde woonachtig in N. Yorke, en getrouwd, den 6 Nov. op Breukelen."4,5
  • Helena Adamse Brouwer married second before 1690 William Nazareth.1,2
  • Her baptism in 1660 is recorded at the Old First Dutch Church at Brooklyn. She was married twice, first to David Hendricksen and second to William Nazareth, a seaman. Helena is last seen in records in 1701. She had children by both husbands and some appear in the records of the Ref. Dutch Church on the island of Curaçao, a center of the colonial Dutch slave trade in the Caribbean.
  • Helena Adamse Brouwer witnessed the baptism of Annetje Matthyse Brouwer , daughter of Matthys Adamsz Brouwer and Marietje Pieterse Wyckoff, on 20 October 1689 at Reformed Dutch Church, New York City, (sponsors Willem Nazareth, Helena Brouwer).6
  • Helena is named in her father's will dated 22 Jan 1691/92.7
  • Helena Adamse Brouwer witnessed the baptism of Marytje Adamse Brouwer , daughter of Adam Adamsz Brouwer and Marretje Hendrickse, on 4 May 1695 at Old First Dutch Reformed Church, Brooklyn, Kings Co., New York, (sponsors Willem Nazareth, Lena Nazareth).8

  • Helena has not been found in the records after 1701. Three of her daughters do appear on the Island of Curaçao beginning in 1715, so it is likely that the family relocated there sometime in the first decade of the 1700's. Curaçao is in the Lesser Antilles, or Netherlands Antilles, off the north coast of Venezuala. It's natural harbor became an important port for the Dutch West India Company, and was a major port in the Atlantic slave trade.

  • Hendrick Matthysz Brouwer was baptized on 6 December 1679 at Reformed Dutch Church, New York City; sponsors Adam Brouwer, Barentie Hendricx.2
  • According to William J. Hoffman, "Bergen stated that he went to Raritan and married Elizabeth, this must be an error, for the Hendrick Brouwer of Raritan had a son named Adam and it would seem that the father of this child was Hendrick Brouwer the son of Adam Brouwer Jr, for there is no record of a son Matthys." In other words, the Hendrick Brouwer who went to Raritan and married Elizabeth (___) was a son of Adam Brouwer and Marritje Hendricks.1

  • Hendrick Adamsz Brouwer was baptized on 15 January 1699 at Old First Dutch Reformed Church, Brooklyn, Kings Co., New York; sponsors Willem Brouwer and wife Angenietje. (Here Hoffman [TAG 24:30] points out that "no wife named Angenietje of Willem Brouwer is known from any other record, and it may be a mistake").1
  • He married Elizabeth (?) before 1721.2
  • Hendrick Brouwer is covered in "Brouwer Beginnings" (TAG 24:30). Hoffman adds, "It would seem that this Hendrick Brouwer is the one who settled at the Raritan rather than Hendrick, son of Matthys as Bergen and "Our Home" (probably following the former) suggest. 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
