Notes:

Pieter DeGroot and Claertje Post have 5 children baptized in the Dutch Reformed Church in Staten Island, New York. This does not include their supposed first born, Joseph DeGroat.
In the Acquackanonk Dutch Reformed Church in Acquackanonk, New Jersey, we find a baptism record for Claertje Post, daughter of Gerritt Post and Fransyntje Petersen.
We have no marriage record for Pieter DeGroot and Claertje Post. Possibly they married in Acquackanonk or more likely, elsewhere. Later they ended up on Staten Island. Records of their marriage and their first born are thus not found in either the Acquackanonk or the Staten Island Dutch Reformed Church.
In online trees, Pieter was born about 1729 and died 1805 in New Jersey. In fact we have a findagrave photo showing death of 14 March 1805 at age 75 in Bergen County, New Jersey. However, the will of Peter DeGroot in Bergen, New Jersey is obviously a different person. His wife is Hester (although, he could have remarried), the only child mentioned is Aurie, a grandson Peter Banta and two negro slaves Dine, a female and Dick, a male.
Thus, at this point we no longer have any idea of Peter’s birth date or death date.
