Commentary	Pieter Laurens Spiegel was born in 1553 and died about 1630. He was a cloth dealer on the Nieuwen Dijck in de twee Spiegels. He married Griete Pietersdr. (born in 1564) on 30 December 1582. He was the brother of Hendrick Laurens Spiegel (statesman and homme de lettres), who was married, first, to Brechten ten Berch, who was herself a daughter of Marten ten Berch (the first husband of Helena Bouwers of R 27876 of Montias2). Brechten ten Berch was the sister of Catarina ten Berch, the wife of Hendrick Bouwer, of INVNO 735. Hendrick Laurensz. remarried with Diewer Jans van Marcken (1573-1647). Griete Pieters was the daughter of Pieter Huybertsz. and Machteld Pieters Bicker (Elias, Vroedschap, p. 89). Griete Pieters had a crucifix inde bedstede as well as a berookt crucifix. She was hence almost certainly a Roman Catholic .
