BROUWER BEGINNINGS
The First Three Generations of the Adam Brouwer Berchoven Family
By WILLIAM J. HOFFMAN, M. MECH. ENG., of La Plume, Penn.
Anna Brouwer (daughter of Adam Brouwer Berchoven and Magdalena Jacobs Verdon) married (as Anna Berckhove) at Albany Apr. 6, 1693 (1:26), William Hilte, i.e.Hilton, widr. Sara Ebb. Anna's name often appears in the baptismal entries at Albany as Barko. She is probably the Annatie Hilton who died at Albany Feb. 25, 1748.
It seems strange that none of the Brouwer relatives stood sponsor for Anna's children. But her own children did act as sponsors for Brouwer relations. Maria Hilton was sponsor for a child of Jacob and Maria Brouwer at Albany in 1722. Ryckert (Richard) and Maria Hilton were sponsors for a child of Johannes and Sara (Brouwer) van Santen in 1722 (this Sara Brouwer has not yet been identified); and William Hilton was a sponsor at Brooklyn for a child of Aeltje Brouwer.
