Commentary	According to the INTRO, Aris Halewat was married to Willemken van Boekholt. He became a regent of the Aalmoezeniersweeshuis in 1630 (Wagenaar, Amsterdam, p. 300). S.A.C. Dudok van Heel points out (Jaarboek Amstelodamum, 77(1984), p. 35) that Catalijntje Aerts Burlon, the widow of Jan Pynas, had probably become buitenmoeder of the Weeshuis. Halewat may have bought the paintings by Jacob Pynas in his inventory when the latter moved to Delft. Aris Hendricksz. Halewat signed the Remonstrant petition of 1628.
