Commentary	Angnieta Middendorp, from Wastenou, 26 years old, living op 't Water, no living parents, was betrothed to Jan Teunis Schuit, varentgesel, from Aert, 23, living on the O.Z. Achterburchwal, assisted by his mother, on 22 Jan 1650 (DTB 467/426). She was said to be the widow of Jan Schuijt when she married Robbert Gerritsz. widower of Trijn Harmes, from Nieucastel (Newcastle), varentman, on March 7, 1654 (DTB 473/39). Robbert Gerritsz. was constapel on a ship commanded by Cornelis Tromp, captain to sea since 1650, later Lieutenat Admiral (Elias, Vroedschap pp. 377-8). The inventory was made at the request of Annetge Willems, wife of Jan Middendorp, who was a lieutenant serving under Tromp. Jan Middendorp may have been the brother of Angnieta Middendorp. On 24 October 1655, Angeniettije Middeldorp, wife of Robbert Gerretse, was buried (DTB 1191/428). On the gravemaker Claes Moyaert, see INVNO 322 of R 239.
