Commentary	Samuel Gillisz. Ko(o)ren or Co(o)ren, the younger brother of Charles Gillisz. Cooren of INVNO 685, was a dyer. He paid a 10 f. tax in 1631, living on the Bloemgracht, where he apparently died in 1637 (see NOTES to R 24944 of Montias2). In a deposition, dated August 1617, Samuel Cooren, verwer, declared that David Buys had dyed vermillion in his house on the Bloemgracht (Van Dillen, Bronnen tot de geschiedenis van het bedrijfsleven R.G.P. 78(1933), p. 828). On 28 February 1620, Samuel Gillisz. Coorn, from Rotterdam, dyer, 25 years old, living on the corner of the Lelijcruisstraet, was betrothed to Susanna Cornelis (Cocquels), from Ceulen, 30, assisted by her nephew Cornelis Roos (DTB 431/78). Cornelis Roos may be identical with Cornelis Ariaensz. Roos of R 31021 of Montias2. On 17 May 1622, Samuel Coren and Susanna Cocquels had their son Samuel baptized in the N.K. in the presence of Anna Anselmes (STB 40/169). On 23 May 1623, Samuel Koren and Susanna Koren had their daughter Catelijn baptized in the N.K. in the presence of Catelijn Gout (DTB 4-/212). On 10 August 1631, Samuel Coorne and Susanna Coorne had their son Samuel baptized in the N.K. in the presence of James Zant (DTB 41/204). On 28 November 1632, a child of Samuel Cooren was buried (DTB 1053/359). The death inventory of Samuel Kooren, cloth dyer, was taken from 14 to 20 July 1637. A number of art objects that were sold in the present auction sale can be identified with items in this inventory NA 714, film 5148, fol. 160 and foll.) On 4 December 1637, Philips Vinson brought a bank note for 11,000 f. to the Orphan Chamber for the benefit of the children left by Samuel Coren, dyer, namely Catherine, 16 and Samuel, 6, whose mother was Susanna Coquel, for their father's and mother's inheritance (WK 5073/789, fol. 279).
