Notes:

Peter Lott , son of Peter and Gertrude Lott, was born about 1660/70; died 1721, Hopewell, N.J.; married Nishe (Dutch for Ann, Anna or Hannah, and more frequently spelled Neatje, Natje, Annatje, etc?)- 1698. Hempstead, L.I., both Peter and his wife Nishe Lott, appear in the Census Records. As Peter was married at this time, and head of a family, he very
evidently was not the Peter, born 1682, nor the one born 1690, as claimed by numerous authorities.'
In 1703, he was a resident of Newtown,L.I., and in 1708, purchased land in Maidenhead, N.J., at which time he may have moved there. His records are as follows 1703 March 3. Peter Lott of Newtownand Nisie his wife of the one part
and Nicholas Berrien of the sameplace of the other part sd Peter Lott and his wife for and in consideration of the sum of 700 Pounds and sold unto Nicholas Berrien land .
His will dated 1720. Dec. 11. Peter Lot was as follows: "In the Name of God Amen. I, Peter Lot of Hopewell, in the county of Hunterdon and in the province of NewJersey, Yeoman, being sick and weak in body the of sound mind and
memory,thanks be given to God, Therefore calling to mind the mortality of mybody and the shortness and uncertainty of human life Do make and .......this mylast will and Testamentviz: Mywill is that mylands and Tenaments both here and at Burlington be sold by my Executors and my debts paid out of same. And I give and bequeath unto Nishe my dearly beloved wife one Third part to her and her heirs and assigns forever. Item: I give and be queath unto my five children
all the remainder of myestate goods chattels to go equally (except six shillings which I give my son Peter more than to the rest), Moreover mywill is that my Dearly beloved wife aforesaid, and my loving sons Peter Lot and John Phillips be Executors.

Birth order of Peter's Children
Teunis G. Bergen gives us the names of 6 children of Peter Lott and Gertrude _______ : Engelbert, Catrina, Peter, Abraham, Hendrick, and Johannes. If Bergen is correct, it would have been traditional for Peter to have named his eldest son after Peter's own father, and we can assume that his own patronymic was "Engelbertszen" as well.
