Pieter Bogardus
by
Stefan Bielinski
Pieter Bogardus was baptized in New Amsterdam in April 1645. He was the son of Everhardus and Anneke Jans Bogardus. His father was the community's Dutch Reformed minister and his mother was a prominent widow. His father died unexpectedly in 1647 and Anneke Jans took her children upriver to Beverwyck where she died in 1663. Her will, filed in 1663, left him a share of her substantial estate.
Pieter's wife was Wyntie Cornelisz Bosch whom he may have married in 1665. By 1691, the marriage had produced eight children who were christened at the Albany Dutch church where he was a member and regular baptism sponsor.
In 1679, his name appeared on a census of Albany householders. Although also called a "glazier" and a "mariner," his community standing would place him among Albany's businessmen. He was a magistrate during the 1670s and was elected first ward alderman in 1693. He often performed contract services for Albany organizations that included repairing windows in the poor house in 1667. In 1697, his home was configured on the census of Albany householders. In 1699, he signed an oath of allegiance to the king of England. In 1702, his first ward home was valued on the assessment roll. He appears to have left Albany shortly thereafter. However, his pasture land was noted on the Albany assessment roll in 1709.
Pieter Bogardus filed a will in 1702. He died in Kingston about 1703. His will passed probate in 1714.
BASIC INFO: Pieter Bogardus (1645-1703) was born in New York, the son of "Dominie" (Reverend) Everardus Bogardus (1607-1647) and his wife Anneke Jans (1605-1663). Both his parents were important people. His father was the community's Dutch Reformed minister, and his mother was a prominent widow. In 1665 in New York, Pieter married Wyntji Cornelise Bosch (1644-1712). Pieter was a glazier, a mariner, and apparently a businessman. Although Pieter lived for many years in Albany, he died in 1703 in Kingston, New York. CHILD: Anthony Bogardus (1682-1744).
BURIAL: Pieter would have been been buried in the First Reformed Dutch Church Burying ground in Kingston, the earliest listed cemetery in the Kingston area. Although the earliest readable stone in that burying ground is from 1724, the First Reformed Dutch Church was burned, along with most of the village, by the British in 1777, and the church had to be rebuilt. Thus, it is not surprising no stone has been found.
