Commentary	On 21 October 1632, Samuel van Swol, from Amsterdam, bookkeeper, 27 years old, assisted by his father Jan van Swoll, living in the Spinsteech, was betrothed to Catherina Thijs, 25 (DTB 439/474). Catharina was the daughter of Francoijs Thijsz. and Hedwige de Bacher and the niece of Hans Thijsz. de oude of INVNO 690. On 28 July 1633, the couple had their son Joannis baptized in the O.K. in the presence of Samuel Bacher (Catharina's brother) and Magdalena Thijsdr.
