Commentary	Jan Abelis, cited in the INTRO, is identical with Jan Abeels, son of Jonas Abeels (cited in the INTRO and in the TEXT of R 79 of Montias1), who was married to Anna de Bra. She was the sister of Isaack de Bra. On 15 January 1649, Jan Abeels, 30, assisted by his father Jonas Abeels, living on the Keysersgracht, was betrothed to Anna de Bra, from Neurenburgh, assisted by her father Abraham de Bra, living on the Conincxgracht (DTB 466/321). There is some likelihood that Isaack de Bra was a bachelor at the time his bankrupt inventory was taken.
