| Buyer | Lowijs Lusse bij Schepen Raep |
| Buyer Family | Lusse [Luce, Luca, or Lucce], Lowijs [Louis] (de) | | Buyer Notes | Schepen Raep must be Adriaen Pieterdsz. Raep, schepen since 1612, who lived in the Warmoesstraet in de Raep. The buyer Lowijs Lusse was the merchant for whom Lucas Lucce, painter and art dealer of R 20173, guaranteed a loan in 1639. Lowijs Lusse or Luce was Lucas's brother (See Obreen, Archief, vol. 6, p. 37). He paid a tax of 90 f in 1631, at which time he lived on the Lelijgracht (Kohier, fol. 304, p. 69). On 22 June 1614, Louis Luce, from Antwerp, 35, living on the Breedstraet, assisted by his brother Lucas Luce was betrothed to Elisabeth Deijls, from Amsterdam, 20, assisted by her uncle Deonys de Maistre (DTB 418/126). On 22 April 1633, Louys Luce, merchant, 54, declared at the request of Jan van Hooren in Middelburg in Zelant that a sack brought by Pieter Casteleijn (cited in R 30817) from the Wisselbank was supposed to contain 2,000 f. Luce had never noticed any dishonesty on the part of Casteleyn (NA 694B, Not. J. Warnaerts). On 23 May 1633, Samuel Maronnier, sworn broker, 50, made a deposition concerning six bales of raw silk that Luce had bought from Sr. Hendrick Witacker (NA 604B, Not. J. Warnaerts). On 14 January 1634, the honorable Louis Luce, together with Casper Ruts and Jan de Marees Danielsz., were said to be creditors of Symon van Dogum (or Doyum) who had committed a disgraceful bankruptcy (NA 409, film 4787). On 11 April 1636, Loijs Luce, together with 30 other merchants, testified to the credit-worthiness of Adriaen van Ackerlaeck (NA 695A, film 4821). On 7 October 1637, Cornelis Hoofflant and Johan Commen on one side and Louis Luce on the other signed a contract to deal in certain types of drogerij including gutta gomme (gutta percha). Commen and Hofflant were to deliver 600 pounds of rubber Amsterdam weight (NA 866, Not. van Zwieten, film 581). On 5 February 1639, Louis Luce, merchant, hired Clement Arentsz. (illiterate) as meesterknecht to run a wasblekerye (wax bleaching works) in Weesp. On 18 May 1643, Louis Luce and Jan Braems (of R 23694) sold a part of the blauwselmolen in Weesp for 5,000 f. He was still associated with Jan Braems in 1648 (Van Dillen, Bronnen tot de geschiedenis van het bedrijfsleven R.G.P. 144(1974), pp. 220, 373, and 510). On 12 April 1640, the honorable Louis Luce, merchant, declared that he was satisfied with the compromise between Lucas Schorer and Sr. Lourens de Colenaer on the other, both for himself and for Deonys de Maistre. The arbitration had been carried out by Nicolaes de Corver (of R 8317) and Nicolaes van de Heuvel (NA 421, film 6438). Nicolaes van Heuvel (1600-1646), who signed the Remonstrant petition of 1628, was a merchant of South Netherlandish origin (Gelderblom, Zuid-Nederlandse kooplieden, p. 304 and Prosopographic Data Base). He is alluded to in the satyrical poem (anonymous but probably written by Pieter van den Broeck and Jacob Valcksz.) St. Nicolaes milde gaven aen d'Amstelse jonckheyt (1640). cited in Oud Holland 1(1883), p. 204). In 1643, Louis Luce, together with a number of other merchants, signed a petition calling for the stabilization of the currency (Van Dillen, Wisselbanken R.G.P. 59(1925), p. 85). Louis Luce had a daughter named Elisabeth who married Jan de Putter in 1644. On 14 October of that year, Jan de Putter, accompanied by his mother Maycken van de Weteringe, wife of Aert de Putter, living in Heusden, signed a pre-nuptial contract with Elisabeth de Luca, assisted by her father Louis de Luca and the honorable Elisabeth Oeils, her dear parents (NA 988, act 45, Not. J. Bosch). |
