Commentary	Lambert Gerritsz. Ruijl was the son of Gerrit Albertsz. Ruijl and of Giertje Pieters van Paenderen, whose goods were sold by auction after her death in 1619 (INVNO 596). On 17 June 1613, Lambert Gerritsz. Ruijl, painter, 25, assisted by his father Gerrit Albertsz. Ruijl, was betrothed to Teuntje Kornelis de Goijer (Oud Holland 3(1885), p. 596). On Cornelis de Goijer, the father of Teuntje Kornelis, who died in 1605, see INVNO 845. After the death of Teuntje Kornelis, Lambert Gerritsz. remarried with Gerbrich Henricx in 1625. In 1631, a tax of 15 f. was paid on behalf of the two children of Lambert Gerritsz. Ruijl (Kohier, fol. 316, p. 72). By the time of his death, he had become a kramer (retail merchant) in silk goods (see INTRO). Claes van Campen, cited in the INTRO, was the father of Willem van Campen II of INVNO 1153. Cornelia Ruijl seems to have been the only (surviving ?) child of Lambert Ruijl. At the time of his death, Lambert Gerritsz. Ruijl owned half of a house on the Hoogstraet, on the South side, valued at 3,900 f. and another house valued at 2,500 f. It is not known whether he died in one or the other (or a third).
