Ancestor Notes
Pieter Andriessen was listed in 1648, among the tapsters of New Amsterdam. Pieter died before May, 1664. His widow, Grietje Gerritsen, was confirmed to be living in his tavern property, N7, in 1667. (Stokes Vol II) Pieter was a farmer, a tavern keeper, and a chimney sweep.
In 1655 Pieter was taken hostage by the Indians and the city authorities paid a ransom for his release. (Scandinavian Immigrants in New York
