Comments:
was engaged for 6 years, 3 years at f50 a year and 3 years at f80 a year.
His wages in the colony began April 8, 1637; he probably came by the Rensselaerswyck. In 1646, he is charged with f19:9 received in Holland on Nov. 3, 1645.
In Oct. 1648, on the repeated solicitation by the director to accept the place of gerechts persoon (member of the court), he pleaded to be excused on the ground that he did not consider himself fit for the office, that he was not possessed of a house and lot and therefore not bound to serve, and that he had not yet settled all his accounts with the patroon. His objections however were overruled and he was urged once more to accept the office, the court, in case of refusal, threatening to proceed to other measures. He finally yielded, on condition that he be first allowed to make a trip to the Manhatans. This was granted and Nov. 19, 1648, he took the oath as member of the court. At his urgent request he was released from his office on Jan. 5, 1651.
In the accounts he is charged from 1648 to 1652 with f32 a year for ground rent of a house and license to trade and, jointly with Rutger Jacobsz, from May 1649 to May 1650 with f450 for the lease of the brewery.
July 18, 1650, he was granted permission to become a tapster and Sept. 9, 1650, he was with Arent van Curler appointed trustee of a fund for the building of a school.
From May 1, 1655, to May 1, 1658, he and Thomas Jansz are charged with an annual rent of f40, for a small piece of land situated opposite den sack.
July 19, [1659?] he entered into an agreement with Jeremias van Rensselaer regarding the purchase of hides of cattle to be killed in the colony, showing that by that time he was engaged in the tanning business.
After 1660, he is occasionally referred to as Goossen Gerritsz van Schaick.
