     Pieter was from Communipaw, New Jersey at his marriage.1 Pieter was baptized (DRC) on 20 Oct 1660 at New Amsterdam. Sponsor was Ariaentie Gerrits.3 He married (DRC) Hester Van Gelder, daughter of John Van Gelder and Tanneke Montenac, on 26 Nov 1684 at New Amsterdam4,1 (banns (DRC) 6 Nov 1684, New Amsterdam.)4 He was buried on 15 May 1729 in the Dutch Church at New York.5,1

Other information:

     He was from Communipaw, when he married, but he was probably born in NY. It seems strange that he would be born in Communipaw and baptized the same day in New York (although it is just across the river. And why Willem S?)4,3,1
     Pieter Willemse Roome and his wife Hester Van Gelder are listed among the members of the Dutch Church in New Amsterdam in 1686. They were living on Broadway.6
