Introduction	Den 23en january 1636 zijn de naergelaten goederen van Jannitge Lucas weduwe van Pieter Appelman vercocht.
Commentary	On 11 April 1625, Pieter Cornelis Appelman, from Amsterdam, 25 years old, living in the N.Z. Achterburchwal, was betrothed to Jannetje van Coengracht widow of Jan Lucasz., schipper (7 years a widow), living on the Zeedijck (DTB 670/46). It is not clear whether the name of the widow, Jannetje Lucas, refers to her first husband's name or to her own patronymic. Pieter Appelman, apparently living in the same house, de Blauwe Hen, as Sybrand Melchiorsz. Appelman bought lots for 1 f. 16 st. in the Haarlem lottery of 1606 (GAA 117/59 F 873). On 9 April 1622, Pieter Appelman, in association with Jan Geurtsz. and Barent Harmansz. set up a wasbleekerij (bleaching works) (Van Dillen, Bronnen tot de geschiedenis van het bedrijfsleven R.G.P. 78(1933), p. 445.) Jan Geurtsz. may be identical with the procureur of R 21492 of Montias2 or with Jan Geurtsz. van den Bogaert, the brother of the painter Adriaen van den Bogaert of R 20920 of Montias2. Barent Harmensz. (of R 26683 of Montias2) was probably the lakenstopper portrayed by Rembrandt in the Night Watch. On 17 November 1628, Pieter Appelman, coming from the Zeedijck, was buried in the N.K. (8 f. were paid on his behalf to the church) (DTB 1054/43vo.)
