Commentary	Jacob van Neck, born in Texel in 1602, was the son of Barend Cornelisz. van Neck (1555-1617) and Hendrickgen Jans Boel. He married Maria Wttenbogaert, daughter of Augustijn Wttenbogaert (of R 27441 of Montias2) and of Maria Reael on 13 November 1646. He was a member of the Vroedschap from 1652 to 1673, in which year, due to his bankruptcy, he had to resign. He was Regent of St. Pietersgasthuis in 1646 and captain of the militia in 1650. He may have left Amsterdam after his bankruptcy (Elias, Vroedschap van Amsterdam, p. 478). A portrait of hopman van Neck in the inventory of Margarieta van Rijn (INVNO 1289, R 49620) is probably that of Jacob Barendsz. van Neck of the present inventory. The attorney Dirck Pater, who stood surety for Jacob van Neck, who was baptized on 15 December 1643, was the son of Albert Dircksz. Pater (cited in the NOTES of R 7702 of Montias2) and Hillegonda Wttenbogaert. Hillegonda was the sister of Maria Wttenbogaert (Elias, op.cit. p.261).
