Peter ACKERMAN b 25 Aug 1806 d. 20 Aug 1856, aged 50 years. He m. 3 Jul
1830 Mary Ann BROOKS, b. 17 Jan 1810.


The Original Bruynswick Church is a beautiful one in excellent
condition. It is about 10 miles from Pine Bush and about the same
distance from Walkill, Ulster Co.

I think that Peter ACKERMAN came from New Jersey and near Paramus and
that he was related to a descendant of the Rev. John Mauritius
Goetschius, pastor of the Paramus Church and Paramus Church records say
he was sent to the wilds of Ulster County, and he was a pastor of the
Bruynswick church for years and is buried in the churchyard there.

Can anyone shed any further information on this family or church?

Thanks

Diane Ward Sives
