Commentary	Elisabeth Wijmer was the daughter of Samuel Wijmer and Dingna Verdiest. She was the cousin of Pieter Wijmer II of R 28340. She was baptized in the N.K. on 24 October 1621 and buried in the O.Z.K. on 22 January 1671. Her father Samuel Wijmer, born about 1597, made a deposition at the request of Jan Jansz. du Quesnay, freighter of the ship de Prins, in which he stated he had been merchant (a rank) in 1625 on a ship commanded by Cornelis Pietersz. Koemans at which time he earned a salary of 25 Fl. pounds a year (NA 372, fol. 156, Not. W. Cluyt). Elisabeth Wijmer married 1) on 15 December 1658, Mattheus Jaspersz., sailmaker on the Nieuwe Eiland, widower of Annetge Jans; 2) on 28 November 1662, Crijn (Quirijn) van Seventer, born in Amsterdam in 1620, buried on 28 June 1664, living in the Nieuwe Eiland in t Scheepsgereetschap; and 3) on 1 April 1670, Jan Baptista Liefrinck, from Leyden, Commies over de coopmanschappen van de W.I.C., living on the Nieuwe Eiland, widower of Elisabeth Kamps. Jan Six, the son of Jean Six and of Elisabeth's aunt Anna Wijmer, was the former alderman and future burgomaster who was portrayed by Rembrandt in 1654. Abraham Wijmer (1617-1678), cited in the INTRO, was the brother of Elisabeth (Elias, Vroedschap van Amsterdam, pp. 462-3).
