Commentary	Jacomo Noirot was the brother of Daniel Noirot and of Isaac Noirot, cited in Elias, Vroedschap van Amsterdam, p. 489. According to Briels, he was an art dealer (Briels, Zuidnederlandse immigratie, p. 101). He may have been the son of the old Noirot whose portrait, together with his wife, was recorded in an anonymous inventory dated 10 July 1618 (NA 611, film 330, Not. Pieter Ruttens). Lucas van Uffelen (1586-1638), at whose house some of the goods in this inventory were found, spent part of his life in Venice where he assembled a collection of paintings. After his death (before 9 April 1638), a sale of a cargaison of his paintings was sold by the Orphan Chamber in his house on the Keisersgracht at the corner of the Westermarckt, which brought a total of 59,456 f. (Strauss, Rembrandt Documents, p. 177.) Jacomo (or Jacques) van Uffelen (1590-1640) was a merchant chiefly active in the Levant (R 7706). It may be noted that Cathaline Noirot, from Brugges, was betrothed to the Delft goldsmith Adriaen de Grebber on 13 March 1621 (DTB 425/237). Adriaen Noirot (I?), a merchant born in Antwerp, was married to Elisabeth de Wilhem, the daughter of Christiaen de Wilhem, who was apparently the brother of Paolo de Wilhem I, the father of Paolo de Wilhem II of INVNO 197 (DTB 41/28 and Jaarboek C.B.G. 25(1971), pp. 146-8). Adriaen Noirot (II?), was married to Susanna de Wilhem, who was apparently Elisabeth de Wilhem's sister. He was the father of Jacob Noirot, baptized on 19 June 1629. On 18 March 1627, Paolo de Willem (I) gave a procuration to Adriaen Noirot (I), to collect money that Gerrit Claes owed him in Gorcum (NA 661, fol. 123vo, Not. Warnaerts).
