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.
SOURCES: Ancestry.com has four records for Pieter: a "Family Data Collection - Births" record, a "U.S. and International Marriage Records, 1560-1900" record, a "Family Data Collection - Deaths" record, and a "Family Data Collection - Individual Records" record. A biography of Pieter Bogardus (1645-1703) was done by the Colonial Albany History Project (CAP Biography #6381 by Stefan Bielinski). Information on Pieter also appears in several citations from "Collections on the History of Albany...,"J. Munsell, 1865.
