Commentary	The owner of the goods in this inventory is probably identical with Abraham Varlet who was married to Haasje Claes. On 30 October 1658, the couple had their son Casparus baptized in the presence of Frans Cornelisz. Smidt and Franscina Varlet (DTB 94/432). He was probably related to the dyer Pieter Varlet (cited in the NOTES to R 32347 and R 22043 of Montias2).
