== Biography ==
Catherine Lothie, her husband Pieter Praa, one child from his first marriage and one from his second marriage emigrated from Holland to New Amsterdam in the ship ''Moesman'' in April 1659. The passenger list of the ship is preserved and includes "Pieter Pieterson, alias Pia from Picardy, his wife and daughter."<ref>Source: Douglas Ernest</ref>
On April 10, 1661 Pieter Praa from Dieppe, and Catharine Lethie, with letters from Middlewout (Holland) were admitted as members of the Brooklyn Dutch Church. This record indicates they had resided at Middlewout shortly before the emigration and, since they are recorded as being in Leyden on May 17,1658, tends to confirm Dieppe as having been Pieter's place of birth. <ref>DRC Church record</ref>
::Note: New Town, Middelwout or Midwout (Middle Woods) was one of the original settlements on Long Island and the location of one of the earliest churches. This community was located in the Vlacke bos or Flatbush between Breukelen and Amersfoort and received from Director Stuyvesant the name of Middelwout, ca. 1658.<ref> History of New Netherlands: Or, New York Under the Dutch, Volume 1By Edmund Bailey O'Callaghan</ref> This community was later absorbed by Flatbush, Kings County, New York and became a part of Brooklyn.
