Commentary	On 18 December 1614, Willem Klaes (Leijdecker), no living parents, was betrothed to Maritgen Philips, 24, living on the Bierkay, assisted by her father Philips Lenaerts (DTB 418/274). Philips Lenaerts, beer distributor, was the buyer of R 29712 of Montias2. On 21 March 1631, Willem Claesz. Leijdecker and Maritge Philips had their son Jan baptized in the N.K. in the presence of Joannes van den Broeck (DTB 41/185). The witness was probably the individual of that name, born in 1593, who held high financial posts in The Hague (see the TEXT of R 1259). He was the father of the painter Elias van den Broeck.
