Commentary	On 17 March 1640, Pieter Danielsz., from Amsterdam, 26 years old, no living parents, assisted by his swager Laurens Geerits, living on the Coninxgracht, was betrothed to Sara Jans, widow of Jelis de Vogel, living in the Jonge Roelofsteech (DTB 453/296). On 11 December 1647, Pieter Danielsz. van der Pels declared at the request of Jan Willes, merchant in Rotterdam, that he had had on consignment eight bolts of English cloth, which he had tried to sell without profit on Willes's behalf, but they were not of good quality (Van Dillen, Bronnen tot de geschiedenis van het bedrijfsleven, R.G.P. 144(1974), p. 503).
