Commentary	Cornelia van Soutelande was born in Amsterdam in 1567. She was betrothed to Albert Dircx Emaus, captain of a vendel of infantry (voetknechten) on 19 July 1602. The son of Dirck Emaus and Aef Pieters, he was widower of Jannetje Joosten. He was apparently the brother of Pieter Dirks Emaus (not Emans), who was a regent of the Tuchthuis from 1619 to 1647 (Blankert, Historisch Museum, p.401). The half sister of Cornelia van Soutelande, named Maria van Soutelande, born in The Hague about 1557, and buried in Amsterdam on 30 August 1628, was betrothed to Mr. Jacob Simonsz. van der Does on 25 July 1587 (Jaarboek C.B.G. 19(1965), p. 156). Jacob Simonsz. van der Does was the father of Simon Jacobsz. van der Does, secretary of the Insurance Chamber, who married Beatrix Anselmo in 1594 (see the NOTES to R 28462 of Montias2). Magdalena van Soutelande, the sister of Cornelia cited in the INTRO, is not mentioned among the siblings of Cornelia in the article in the C.B.G. Jaarboek. Mayken Bultel, also cited in the INTRO, was married to Schout Simon Willemsz. van der Does, who died in 1652. On 12 November 1637, Jan (Hans) Bultel, 5(?), and Adriaen Braems (of R 25313), 36, declared at the request of Franck and Symon (Jacobsz.) van der Does that, at the time the 200th penning tax was levied in 1635, Symon van der Does Jacobsz. had more debts than assets and could not pay the tax and that he had obtained no more as his share in the ineritance from Captain Emaus and his widow (Cornelia Soutelande) than 700 f. minus 200 f. that he owed to the estate (NA 696A, film 4982). Mayken Bultel was almost certainly the sister of the witness in the foregoing deposition Jan (Hans) Bultel. Neither Philips Sandra nor his wife, whose name is partly illegible, has been identified.
