Peter LOTT [Parents] was born about 1629. He died in 1704. Peter married Gertrude LAMBERTS about 1653.

Peter emigrated 1 in 1652 from near Lotte River. He immigrated 2 in 1652 to Flatbush, Kings, New York, United States.

PETER LOT (also spelled Lodt, Loot, Loth and Lott), the Common ancestor of the family in America, was a French Huguenot, who emigrated from a point near the Lotte river, in the year 1652, and settled in Flatbush, Kings county, N.Y.

He married GERTRUDE, Possibly Lamberts, who died 1704; both members of the Flatbush Reformed Dutch Church in 1677. He obtained Jan. 25, 1662, a Pat­ent for 24 Morgens of land in Platbush, which he sold March 22, 1674, to Jan Cornelise Boomgaert. His name appears on Governor Dongan's Patent of Flatbush in 1685, of which town he was a Magistrate in 1656, and 1673, and where he took Oath of Allegiance 1687.

From a map on file in the Office of the Secretary of State in Albany, N.Y., made by “Ja. Cortelyou sworn surveyor,” filed Aug. 8, 1681, of six farms in Flatbush, it appears that “Pieter Lott” owned a farm on the vest side of the “highway to the ferry” south of Dominie Polhemius's double lot and north of that of “Klyn Dirk” (Dirk Janse Boogland) (nil.), “broad before 26 Rod 8 foot” (about 311.2 ft English measure), “after 27 Rod” (about 325.8 ft English measure), “long 600 Rod” (about 7241 ft English). This is clearly the lot which Edward Griffen conveyed to “Barte]. Lot and Peter Loot,” known as No. 9. next to the pastor's (Dominie Polhemius's) land, containing 24 morgens, and now or late the property of Sarah, wife of John Ditmas and daughter of Andrew Suydam.

Signed his name “Peter Lot” and “Peter Lodt.” (Re!: 4:302; 46:155; 73:192)

Res:- Flatbush, Kings county, N.Y.

Gertrude LAMBERTS died 1 in 1704 in Flatbush, Kings, New York, United States. Gertrude married Peter LOTT about 1653.

They had the following children.

  M i
Engelbert LOTT was born 1 in Dec 1654. He died 2 on 30 Apr 1730 in Flatbush, Kings, New York, United States.


Married Oct. 27, 1678, at the Dutch Reformed Church, New York, Cornelia De La. Noy, daughter of Abraham, who was of French extraction, and a resident of the city of New York.


Engelbart Lott, was settled at New Castle, on the vest bank of the Dela­ware River, about thirty-five miles below Philadelphia. At the time of his mar­riage he owned a considerable tract of land and marsh on Christiana Creek, in New Castle County, and two lots in the town of New Castle. This property he continued to hold for several years subsequent to his removal to Long Island, but he even­tually disposed of it by deed, Sept. 1, 1707, to Abraham Santford, John Harbadink, and Jane Tuttle. Toward the close of the year 1682, NewCastle, with the adjacent territory, became united with the Province of Pennsylvania, under William Penn. Shortly after this union was affected, he took the Oath of Allegiance and promised­ fidelity and lawful obedience to William Penn, the Proprietor and Governor of that province, in compliance with an act passed at Chester at the Colonial Legislature of Pennsylvania.

He was on terms of intimacy and friendship with Gov. Penn, who held out strong inducements for him to remain at New Castle; but the unhealthiness of the place and surrounding country, together with an ejectment suit which had been several years pending before the Court of Sessions, then held at Gravesend, in the West Riding of Yorkshire, on Long Island, in which Derick Jansen Hoghlandt was plaintiff, and his father, Peter Lott, defendant, caused him to remove.

In 1682, with his wife Cornelia, he came to Flatbush, on Long Island, with a view to make it his permanent residence, and purchased a house and about two acres of land situated on the easterly side of the road and a short distaace south of the Erasmus Hall Academy, near the property or Teunis G. Bergen. In the month of December, in the same year of his removal, he and his wife Cornelia were admitted on certificate, as members in full communion of the Reformed Dutch Church of Flatbush, then under the pastoral charge of the Rev. Casparus Van Zuren.

In 1688 he hired for farming purposes from the church of Flatbush a tract of land situated on the south side of the road leading to New Lots, and north of the land of John Stryker, with the salt meadows thereto appertaining, for the term of seven years, at the yearly rent of 225 guilders, payable in sewant, or in wheat, to be delivered at Brooklyn Ferry at the current price. In 1709 he dis­posed of his house and two acres of land, and purchased from Daniel Polhemus and Neltje, his wife, the southerly one-thitd part of the farm of the Rev. Johannes Theodorus Polhemus, the first minister of the Reformed Dutch Churches in Kings county. In 1698 he was appointed High Sheriff of the county of Kings by Richard, Earl of Bellomont, Governor of the Province of New York. He lived on his farm until the time of his death, in 1730. Signed his name “Engel Bart Lott.” (Ref:
28:191; 48:183/11.)

RES:- New Castle, Delaware; Flatbush, L.I.

BIRTH: New Castle on the west bank of the Delaware River, about 35 miles below Philadelphia.

Abraham LOTT [scrapbook] 1 died 2 in 1766.


ABRAHAM LOTT, son. of Peter and Gertrude Lott, died in 1766. Married 1st CLAESJE LANGSTRAET, born 1672, daughter of Derick Stoffelsz Langestraat, who emigrated in 1657 and Catbarina Van Lieuvin (van Leuven) his wife. Johanna Havens, widow of Johann? s Holsaert was the 2nd wire of Deric]c Langestraat, and the one who was a sponsor at Jan Lott's baptism 1696.


Abraham Lott married 2nd GEERTJE JANS DORLANT. (In printed works this date is given as Aug. 2, 1695, but there must be a mistake in transcribing the Church Records.) She was born in Bedford, baptized Aug. 19, 1674, Reformed Dutch Church, Brooklyn, N.Y. Married 3rd, SARA; and married 4th MARTIE. Had issue by all four wives, the dates run consecutively, and all are named in his will.

Credit is due Mr. Austin C. Graybeal, of Des Moines, Iowa, for having worked out this puzzle of the various Abraham Lotts. Quoting his letter to me of April 3, 1941:-

Abraham Lott lived in Brooklyn after his marriage to Claesje Langstraet, for here on the Brooklyn Church records we find the following, April 25, 1696, Abraham Lott, Claesje Tangstraet had Jan Lott. Sponsors Dirk Langstraet and Johanna Havens (his wife). Peter Lott of New York bapt. Oct. 31, 1697, at Jamaica, was a son of Abraham and Claesje Lott. The records show that Abraham moved to Jamaica where his brother Hendrick lived just before this last date.

Isaac Lott, 1704, was a son of Abraham and his 2nd wife Geertje. This appears to be their only child. Abraham Lott must have married his third wife Sara, between Isaac's birth 1704, and Jacob's birth 1716. Between 1716 and 1718, he had again married for a fourth time, Maria or Marytie, as his last three children were born 1718-20-22.


The Dutch Reformed Church, Brooklyn, marriages gives Aug. 2, 1695, as the date of Abram Lott 's marriage to Geertje Jans Dorlandt. This date is what is wrong, many errors appear in the copies of the early records. If it read 1699, everything would check.”

Abrshwn Lott, made his will July 21, 1760, stating he was “far advanced in age,” it was proved Sept. 4, 1766, and reads in abstract as follows:-


1760. July 21. In the Name of God, Amen, I, Abraham Lott, of Jamaica, in Queens County, being in perfect health, but far advanced in age, and considering that I have but a short time to continue in this transitory life. I leave to my son, Rem Lott, all my horses, wagons, ploughs, and all, my carpenter tools; also all my lands, meadows, and messuages in Jamaica or elsewhere; And he is to provide me a comfortable maintainance during my natural life, and he is to pay to the rest of my children £504. as follows: To my daughter Charity, now wife of Nicholas Van Arsdalen, of Jamaica, L.I., 72 pounds; to my son Hendrick, 72 pounds; to my son Jacob, 72 pounds, to my son, Isaac, 72 pounds; to my three grandchildren, the children of my deceased son, Abraham, viz: Abraham Motije, and Cornelius, 72 pounds; to my son, John, 72 pounds.
