Commentary	Casper (Jasper) van Wickevoort (Vickevoort) (1554-1634) was first married to Catharina Rendorp (1574-1611). After his first wife's death, he seems to have remarried with Margriet Bosschaert at some unknown date. Margriet Bosschaert died in 1632. The children he had baptized in the Lutheran Church (which omit to cite the name of the mother of newly baptized infants) from 1598 to 1608 must have been procreated by his first wife who died in 1611. It should be noted nevertheless that the witnesses to the baptism of his son Abraham on 24 December 1606 included Paulus (Hendricksz.) Bosschaert (of INVNO 1297) (the brother of Margriet Bosschaert, from whom she inherited a number of paintings); and Abraham Adriaens, the husband of Ann Bosschaert, a presumed sister of Margriet. On these relations, see the NOTES to R 27688 of Montias2. Casper van Wickevoort was born in 1554 and was buried on 23 December 1634 (DTB 1045/68). He was a buyer at Orphan Chamber auctions (R 21502 of Montias2). Pieter Hulft, cited in the INTRO, was probably Pieter Evertsz. Hulft of R 31228.
