Commentary	Niclaes Egbertsz. van der Sturck was a leather merchant. On 28 July 1634, Cornelis Henricx Rijser, dean, and Henrick Pottey and Claes Egbertsz. Sturck, headmen of the leather dalers, tanners, and shoemakers guild, testified that they had bought for the profit of the guild 700 hides from Willem Stritman living in Zutphen (NA 991, fol. 34, Not. J. Bosch). On 19 September 1632, Niclaes Egbertsz. and Maria Goverts had their daughter Catrina baptized in the N.K. in the presence of Maria Claes (DTB 41/210). On 20 June 1635, the honorable Nicolaes Egbertsz. van der Sturck, widower of Maria Jacobs (Goverts), signed a pre-nuptial contract with Sara Hiole, assisted by her mother Jacqueline le Cocq, Jeronimo Vittori, her brother-in-law, and Isaacq Hiole, her brother (of R 23398) (NA 988, act 9, Not. J. Bosch). On 28 June 1635, Nicolaes Egbertsz. van der Sturck, from Amsterdam, merchant, widower of Maaike Govaerts, living on the Keysersgracht, was betrothed to Sara Hiole, from Amsterdam, 22, living on the Heeregracht, assisted by her mother Jacqueline de Cock (DTB 443/390). Sara Hiole was the daughter of Esaias Hiole and of Jacqueline de Cock of INVNO 249, the sister of Isaack Hiole of R 23398 and the sister of Jacqueline Hiole, the wife of Jeronimo Vittori, horticulturist. Sara died before 9 February 1636 when her mother Jacqueline de Cocq, widow of Esaias Hiole, declared that she had been fully paid from the inheritance left by her daughter Sara, married to Nicolaes Egbertsz. Sturck (NA 991, fol.56, Not. J. Bosch). On 3 January 1637, Nicolaes Egbertsz., widower of Sara Hiole, was betrothed to Anna van Steenbergen (DTB 445/390). On 20 November 1639, Niclaes Egbertsz. and Anna van Steenberch had their son Willem baptized in the O.K. in the presence of Sara van de Venne and Aletta van de Venne (DTB 7/228). Sara van de Venne was the wife of Isaack Hiole (Aletta and Baertie were presumably her sisters). Baertie van der Venne, was married to Willem van Steenberch, a former alderman of Utrecht, cited in the INTRO, who was presumably the brother of Anna van Steenberch. Niclaes Egbertsz. van der Sturck was buried on 25 February 1642. 10 f. 13 st. were paid on his behalf to the church (DTB 1100v/46). The putative brother of Niclaes Egbertsz. van der Sturck, named Bartholomeus Egbertsz. van der Sturck, had a daughter Cornelia Bartholomeusdr. van der Sturck, born in 1626, who married Coenraad Temminck, merchant in Amsterdam (Elias, Vroedschap van Amsterdam, p.788). Among the books suggesting that Niclaes Egbertsz. was Reformed: Wtlegginge over de 12 artikulen des christlijcke geloofs, Synod van Dordrecht, a testament, etc.. Another inventory of the movable goods of Nicolaes Egbertsz. van der Sturck (INVNO 4790) was taken on 21 July 1638, which overlaps in major part with the present inventory (NA 696A, film 4982, Not. Jan Warnaerts).
