Commentary	Jacob Willemsz. Blaeunhelm, cloth merchant on the Nieuwen Dijck in den Blaeuen Helm, was married to Aeltge Jacobs Seeuw. They were the parents of Claes Jacobsz. Blaeuenhelm of INVNO 211 and of Jacob Jacobsz. Blaeuenhelm who married Trijntge Roch, the daughter of Claes Fredericksz. Roch on 11 October 1620 (Elias, Vroedschap, p. 408). On Claes Roch, see the NOTES to R 29300 of Montias2. The inventory, as transcribed, seems rather meager for an important drapier's widow. It may be incomplete.
