| Buyer Notes | On 31 March 1632, Jacob Cornelisz. Blyenberch, 44 years old, living on the Coningsgracht, was betrothed to Peternelle Pouwels, lving on the Roosegracht (DTB 672/106). In 1631, Jacob Blijenburch met 2 suster(s) , living on the Singel, paid a tax of 100 f. (Kohier, fol. 64vo., p. 16). At the end of October 1636, Jacob Cornelisz. Blijenburch, as husband and guardian of Petronella Pauwels, the honorable Johannes Christenius, as husband and guardian of Maria Pauwels, and the eerbare Agata Pauwels, wife of Jan van Dornvliet, armed with a procuration from Jan van Dornvliet, named the heer Michiel Reijers, doctor in medicine, to defend their interests concerning some lands in Breda (NA 477, fol. 437, film 6478, Not. Palm Matthijs). Johannes Christenius, doctor in law, bought the contents of Jacques Carpentier's printing shop from his widow in 1637 (NOTES to R 24437). On 8 July 1636, Jacob Cornelisz. Blyenberch and his wife Peternelle Pauwels passed their testament. Paulus van Thoorenvliet was said to be Jacob Cornelisz.'s brother-in-law. Two children of the couple, Bartholomeus and Gertruyd, were among the heirs (NA 414A, fol. 31). In or around 1642, Jacob Cornelisz. Blyenberch, or possibly his son Jacob Jacobsz. Blijenbergh, was portrayed in the schuttersstuck of the corporaalschap of Captain Jan Vlooswijck painted by Niclaes Elias Pickenoy (Blankert, Amsterdams Historisch Museum, p.110). Jacob (Cornelisz.?) Blyenburch was buried in the N.K. on 2 June 1665 (DTB 1055/160vo). His son, Jacob Jacobsz. Blijenbergh, notary public, 38 years old, was betrothed to Maria Mercier, assisted by her mother Susanna Sohier, on 4 May 1642 (DTB 488/51). Susanna Sohier was married to the merchant Jacques Mercier (or Merchier) of R 20399. Jacob Cornelisz. Blyenberch was almost certainly the brother of Pieter Cornelisz. Blyenbergh, at whose request the painters Barend van Someren (of R 20424) and Adriaen van Nieulandt (of R 20925) declared on 23 July 1626 that they had gone twice to the house of Jan Marines on the Nieuwen Dijck to inspect 32 paintings, which Marines and his wife said belonged to them and which they wished to sell. The deposition was signed by the painter Adriaen Brouwer as a witness. From other documents, it turns out that the paintings had been sold to Blyenberch for 24 f. a piece, through the intermediation of Joseph Giselin, swager of Marines. There was a dispute over payment (Bredius, Künstler-inventare, pp. 804-5). Jan or Hans Marinus (Marins) was a dealer in lace and ribbons. Two and a half years earlier, on 15 November 1623, Michiel van de Sande had bought from Jan Marynsz., lacemaker, a third part in a mill and a house that Van de Sande had been using (he had been renting it for 120 f. a year). Van de Sande agreed to pay 300 f. in cash and 2,000 f. in pictures. The painter Maurits Hellewich witnessed the contract (Bredius, Künstler-inventare, p. 1486. On 11 December 1623, Hans (Jan) Marynsz. insinuated the painter Michiel van de Sande, concerning the following dispute. Marinus alledged that van de Sande had bought from him a third part in a wool mill on the Amstel, outside Amsterdam, taxed 10 f. a year, for the sum of 2,300 f. and a year's rent. Of this sum, 2,000 f. were to be paid in paintings to be assessed by people understanding these things to be chosen by both sides. The rest, 300 f., were to be paid six months after the new year. If the paintings were not delivered, Van de Sande was obligated to pay the rents according to the purchase contract. As it turned out, Van de Sande was again insinuated on 18 March 1624 for failing to deliver the paintings on time (Bredius, op. cit., pp. 1486-7). Jan Marinus was probably a part-time art dealer. On 5 April 1624, he was insinuated by the painter Laurens Helwech, holding a procuration from Van de Sande, regarding the same affair. The judges had decreed that both parties had to adhere to the contract (ibid. pp. 1487-8). On 6 August 1633, Sr. Jeronimus Noirot declared at the request of Cornelis van der Putte (of R 26504) that Pieter van Blyenberch had sold naete gallen (to make ink?) for 48 f. per hundred to Van der Putte. The latter had inspected some samples in Blyenberch's office (NA 694B, film 4980, Not. J. Warnaerts). Jan Marijnsz., living on the Nieuwen Dijck, paid a tax of 40 f. in 1631 (Kohier, fol. 281vo, p. 64). He is likely to be identical with Johan Marin de oude, whose son Johan Marin de jonge, predikant in Hattum (died before 1636) was married to Maycken Boddens (see the TEXT to R 297 of Montias1 in connection with INVNO 380, the inventory of Pieter Buddens (Boddens) de oude). On 23 January 1637, Jannetje Blyenberch, assisted by her father Pieter Cornelisz. Blyenberch, stated that she had been summoned to appear before the Commissioner for Marital Affairs in the matter regarding Jan Pronck (NA 995, film 1225). Four days later, she drew up a procuration naming Pieter Barckman, attorney, to appear on her behalf before the Commissioner for Marrital Affairs. She had been cited in a case by Jan Pronck and his father Cornelis Martsz. Pronck (of R 32466) (NA 997, film 1226). | |
