    Notes from Richard Wynkoop's 1904 edition of Wynkoop Genealogy in the United States of America:

    451. Peter Silvester Wynkoop, Rev., (John C. 205, Capt. Cornelius C., 65, Cornelius 9, Maj. Johannes 2, Cornelius 1,) baptized March 22, 1787, Kinderhoek: died November 1, 1848, in Hudson, N. Y.: married, December 12, 1814, Margaret W. Gosman, daughter of Robert Gosman, and sister of Rev. Dr. John Gosman.
    Peter was graduated from Union College, in 1807, and studied law in the office of his uncle, Judge Silvester, in Kinderhoek, and began the practice of his profession, in 1810. But he abandoned that profession, and entered the theological seminary at New Brunswick, and was licensed by the classis of New Brunswick, in 1813: was assistant of Vredenburgh, at Raritan, 1813-14: pastor at Catskill, 1814-17: Hyde Park (Staatsburgh), 1817-20: Hyde Park and Pleasant Plain, 1820-22: Ghent, Jan. 9, 1823-June 21, 1843, also Hillsdale, 1825-40, and Claverack 2d, now Mellenville, in 1842: Blooming Grove, 1844-48.
    The Rev. Edwin Holmes said of him, in a funeral sermon, that "he preached the Gospel as to dying men, presenting its essential truths, with clearness, skillfulness, and persistency, and avoided doubtful questions. His personal piety was conspicuous in his habits, and in his conscientious deportment. His labors were largely blessed."
    The Rev. John Rugan wrote of him to the compiler, from Fultonham, O., in 1863, as follows: "I was pastor of the Lutheran congregation at Ghent, for several years, from 1850, and heard a great deal of Dominie Wynkoop, whose memory, together with that of Rev. Jacob Berger, was cherished with love and respect by the entire community. To that people, these two men appeared to be the standard of ministerial faithfulness, character, and piety; and if, in conversation or argument, any saying or opinion, of Dominie Wynkoop, or Dominie Berger, could be adduced, it was considered as the end of controversy. I learned to respect the character of those men, whose influence for good, both during life, and after death, was so great, and whose reputation, in all that truly ennobles man, was so high."
