Commentary	The notary Hendrick Barentsz. Schaeff was the son of Captain Barent Schaeff of INVNO 149 (see also the mention of his portrait in R 759 of Montias2). He was also a bookkeeper for the W.I.C. On 27 September 1624, Henrick Barentsz. Schaef, notary public, from Amsterdam, 25, living on the Princegracht, assisted by his neve Jerman Wesselsz., was betrothed to Grietje Aerents, from Amsterdam, 23, assisted by her father Arent Huijge, living on the Coningsgracht (DTB 429/247). A portrait of Grietje Arents in the present inventory (R 759 of Montias2) calls her Van Daeumen(?). On 16 May 1630, Heinrick Schaef and Grietje Arents had their son Isack baptized in the O.K. in the presence of Hans Bardoel and Hermpje Arents (DTB 6/272). Among the books in Schaeff's possession: Uijtlegging van Joannis Calvin.
