Personal data Peter Petersz 

  • He was born January 1666 in Schokland.
    Schokland is een voormalig eiland in de Zuiderzee.
    In 1855 werd vanwege de landafslag de Zuiderbuurt ontruimd. Vanwege de onveilige situatie en omdat de instandhouding van het eiland te duur was, werd in 1859 op bevel van koning Willem III het gehele eiland ontruimd.
    Reden voor de ontruiming was ook de armoede; de visserij was vanaf het begin van de 19e eeuw nauwelijks levensvatbaar en Schokland was de armste gemeente van Nederland.
    Regelmatig waren er inzamelingen voor de Schokkers.
    Ook de inteelt op het eiland zou een rol gespeeld hebben.

    Op 1 maart 1859 maakte burgemeester Gerrit Jan Gillot op aanplakborden bij het gemeentehuis van Schokland bekend dat de bewoners het eiland binnen vier maanden moesten verlaten. Er woonden op dat moment ongeveer 650 mensen.
  • He died on December 26, 1758 in Schokland, he was 92 years old.
