The claiments were listed as "Mary Brower, widow of Abraham Brower deceased...Lawrence Brower, George Brower, Sarah Vachter, Charity Tidemon, Benjamin Van Cleve and Anna his wife, John Shannon and Rebecca his wife, heirs of Jeremiah Brower deceased."

• Hoffman in his series of articles titled Brouwer Beginnings (TAG 23 & 24, 1947-48) placed Maria Elsworth as the second wife of Abraham Brouwer (1726-1797) and placed Maria Losier as the wife of Abraham Brouwer (1739-1816). Careful analysis of the will of Abraham Brouwer (1726-1797), the 1818 Congressional Petition filed by the widow of Abraham Brouwer (1739-1816) and the names of both couple's offspring have led to the conclusion that Hoffman had the two Marias reversed, and in actuality it was Maria Elsworth who was the wife of Abraham Brouwer (1739-1816), while Maria Losier was the wife of Abraham Brouwer (1726-1797).
