Commentary	Isaack Moors started out in life as a copper smith and eventually became a merchant of copper wares. On 29 October 1611, Isaack Moors, copper smith (coperslager), from Aken, 28, was betrothed to Lidia van Hukken, assisted by her aunt Elisabeth van Zuijlen (DTB 416/28). He apparently remarried with Susanna Hondius (cited in the amplification of the inventory of 26 April 1650). Susanna Hondius was the sister of the famous engraver and publisher Hendrick Hondius (see the NOTES to R 33311 of Montias2). Isaack Moors was a buyer at WK auction (R 26927 of Montias2). See the NOTES to R 26927 for information on his activities as a copper smith and a merchant of copper wares. He apparently ended his life in a doubtful financial situation which required court supervision to protect both his debtors and his heirs (his son Lambert Moors and his daughter Maria Moors, married to Willem van Lit).
