Thanks, Mark. I don't really have much on Peter, although his in searching on his name on the Schoharie RootsWeb page brings up a lot of references. I was interested in him primarily because of the BM after his name. The name of my ancestor William Dietz is also on a foundation stone followed by the letters BM. After much research I am inclined to think the letters mean Bau Meister and that Peter Snyder and William Dietz were the builders of the Old Stone Fort. I am seeking evidence to support or deny this. Thanks.
