- Summary
- Peter Teunis Schenck (1752-1808) was a miller in Bushwick, Brooklyn. Upon his death, the mill was taken over by his son, Peter P. Schenck (1798-1832). The Schenck family descended from Jans Martense Schenck and his brother Roelof Martense Schenck, early settlers in the Dutch town of Nieuw Amersfoort, now the Flatlands section of Brooklyn. The collection consists of a receipt book from a mill in Brooklyn owned by Peter Teunis Schenck and his son Peter P. Schenck. Later entries were added by Peter P. Schenck's widow, Jane Meserole Schenck.
