| Buyer | Lowijs Lusse bij Schepen Raep |
| Buyer Family | Lusse [Luce, Luca, or Lucce], Lowijs [Louis] (de) |
| Buyer Notes | Schepen Raep must be Adriaen Pieterdsz. Raep, schepen since 1612, who lived in the Warmoesstraet in de Raep. The buyer Lowijs Lusse was the merchant for whom Lucas Lucce, painter and art dealer of R 20173, guaranteed a loan in 1639. Lowijs Lusse or Luce was Lucas's brother (See Obreen, Archief, vol. 6, p. 37). He paid a tax of 90 f in 1631, at which time he lived on the Lelijgracht (Kohier, fol. 304, p. 69). On 22 June 1614, Louis Luce, from Antwerp, 35, living on the Breedstraet, assisted by his brother Lucas Luce was betrothed to Elisabeth Deijls, from Amsterdam, 20, assisted by her uncle Deonys de Maistre (DTB 418/126). On 22 April 1633, Louys Luce, merchant, 54, declared at the request of Jan van Hooren in Middelburg in Zelant that a sack brought by Pieter Casteleijn (cited in R 30817) from the Wisselbank was supposed to contain 2,000 f. Luce had never noticed any dishonesty on the part of Casteleyn (NA 694B, Not. J. Warnaerts). On 23 May 1633, Samuel Maronnier, sworn broker, 50, made a deposition concerning six bales of raw silk that Luce had bought from Sr. Hendrick Witacker (NA 604B, Not. J. Warnaerts). On 14 January 1634, the honorable Louis Luce, together with Casper Ruts and Jan de Marees Danielsz., were said to be creditors of Symon van Dogum (or Doyum) who had committed a disgraceful bankruptcy (NA 409, film 4787). On 11 April 1636, Loijs Luce, together with 30 other merchants, testified to the credit-worthiness of Adriaen van Ackerlaeck (NA 695A, film 4821). On 7 October 1637, Cornelis Hoofflant and Johan Commen on one side and Louis Luce on the other signed a contract to deal in certain types of drogerij including gutta gomme (gutta percha). Commen and Hofflant were to deliver 600 pounds of rubber Amsterdam weight (NA 866, Not. van Zwieten, film 581). On 5 February 1639, Louis Luce, merchant, hired Clement Arentsz. (illiterate) as meesterknecht to run a wasblekerye (wax bleaching works) in Weesp. On 18 May 1643, Louis Luce and Jan Braems (of R 23694) sold a part of the blauwselmolen in Weesp for 5,000 f. He was still associated with Jan Braems in 1648 (Van Dillen, Bronnen tot de geschiedenis van het bedrijfsleven R.G.P. 144(1974), pp. 220, 373, and 510). On 12 April 1640, the honorable Louis Luce, merchant, declared that he was satisfied with the compromise between Lucas Schorer and Sr. Lourens de Colenaer on the other, both for himself and for Deonys de Maistre. The arbitration had been carried out by Nicolaes de Corver (of R 8317) and Nicolaes van de Heuvel (NA 421, film 6438). Nicolaes van Heuvel (1600-1646), who signed the Remonstrant petition of 1628, was a merchant of South Netherlandish origin (Gelderblom, Zuid-Nederlandse kooplieden, p. 304 and Prosopographic Data Base). He is alluded to in the satyrical poem (anonymous but probably written by Pieter van den Broeck and Jacob Valcksz.) St. Nicolaes milde gaven aen d'Amstelse jonckheyt (1640). cited in Oud Holland 1(1883), p. 204). In 1643, Louis Luce, together with a number of other merchants, signed a petition calling for the stabilization of the currency (Van Dillen, Wisselbanken R.G.P. 59(1925), p. 85). Louis Luce had a daughter named Elisabeth who married Jan de Putter in 1644. On 14 October of that year, Jan de Putter, accompanied by his mother Maycken van de Weteringe, wife of Aert de Putter, living in Heusden, signed a pre-nuptial contract with Elisabeth de Luca, assisted by her father Louis de Luca and the honorable Elisabeth Oeils, her dear parents (NA 988, act 45, Not. J. Bosch). |

| Buyer | Jacob Scharbier |
| Buyer Family | Scharbier, Jacob |
| Buyer Notes | The buyer is probably identical with Jacob Henricksz. Scherbier, cited in a document dated 21 November 1618. In this insinuatie, Pieter Lambertsz. Brack, a collector of the excise tax on woolens, had a notary take note of the English and other woolens in the house of Scherbier, who declared that he had bought these woolens from the uitdraagster Anne Jans (of R 20806). The woolens in question were sequestered (doen arresteren). Scherbier declared that he would sell them any way (Van Dillen, Bronnen tot de geschiedenis van het bedrijfsleven 78(1933), p. 312.) The fact that he bought so frequently at Orphan Chamber sales and that the painter Jacob Leon was said to be living at his house in the Reestraet (R 20052) suggests that he may have been an art dealer as well as a cloth merchant. |

| Buyer | Jacob Mercier coopman |
| Buyer Family | Mercier (Merchier), Jacob (Jacques) (le) (de jonge, II) |
| Buyer Notes | The buyer was a merchant and goldsmith, born in Antwerp about 1585, the son of Jacques Mercier I (cited below) who died before 1600. Jacques Mercier I (alias Jacques Cocquiel) was a merchant in company with Walraven Dragon and Charles Dragon (liquidated in 1597) (Gelderblom. Zuid-Nederlandse kooplieden, p. 176). Jacques Mercier II was living in Amsterdam as early as 1605. On 17 May 1611, Jacques Mercier II, 26 years old, living for 4 years on the O.Z. Achterburchwal, assisted by his mother Jeanne de la Croix, was betrothed to Susanna Sohier, from Steden, 28, no living parents, assisted by her guardians Jan Komelijn and Evert Becker and her aunt Francoijse Comelijn (DTB 415/99). Jeanne de la Croix was later noted as the widow of Jacques Mercier I (Nederlandsche Leeuw 87(1970), col. 269; see also the NOTES to R 31684). The witness Jan Commelijn was the important book seller of INVNO 649. Evert Becker is probably identical with Everhard Becquer or Becker, the father of Samuel Becker of R 20466. On 20 February 1619, Jacques Mercier II and Susanna Sohier had their son Joannes baptized in the Wa.K. in the presence of Everart Bechuer (Becquer) and the widow of Hubert Dragon (DTB 130/82). Jacques Mercier (II)'s sister Jeanne married Carel Kina (or Quina) (II) of R 30687. Samuel Becker was married to Maria Latfeur, the sister of Charles Latfeur of R 20471. Jaques or Jacob Mercier I invested 10,200 f in the first subscription for V.O.C. shares in 1602 (Van Dillen, Het oudste aandeelhoudersregister p.235). On 10 July 1618, Hans Romburch (of R 27468) and Jacques Merchier (I?), merchants, insinuated notary Pieter Ruttens II (of R 20010) for spreading rumors that they were bankrupt (faillit). Ruttens responded to the insinuation by saying he hoped that he had spoken out of carelessness (onvoorsichtichheyt) (NA 621, Not. Sybrant Cornelisz.) In January 1627, Jakus de Marchier, goldsmith, who is likely to be identical with Jacques Mercier II, was owed 259 f. 7 st. from the estate of Jacob Jacobsz. Bicker (WK 5073/1192). In 1631, Jacques Mercier II was taxed 150 f and lived at the time between the Dolhuis and the Doelen (Kohier, fol. 248vo, p. 57). In 1637, he was living op het Burgwal by 't boshuys in de 3 baertjes when he bought jewelry at the Van Maerle sale. His surety was Isack van den Ende. Both Jacques Marchier (signs Mercier) de oude (II) and de jonge (III) were said to be merchants in 1637 (Van Dillen, Bronnen tot de geschiedenis van het bedrijfsleven 144(1974), p. 166.) Jacques Mercier II is almost certainly identical with Jacques le Merchier who was keurmeester of the goldsmiths' guild in 1631 (Van Dillen, Bronnen tot de geschiedenis van het bedrijfsleven 78(1933), p. 752.) Jacques le Merchier, who had baptized a child in the Walloon church in 1619, became a Lutheran in later years. According to an act of 4 December 1636, he was a deacon of the Lutheran Church in that year (NA 772, Not. Verhey). On 19 February 1639, Jacques Mercier (II) (signs), merchant, married to Susanna Sohier; Maria Sohier, widow of Jacques Dragon, likewise merchant; as substitute heirs of Juffr. Margarita Sohier, the daughter left by the late Daniel Sohier, her niece, were opposed in a dispute with Dirck van Os (II) (cited in the NOTES to R 21382) and David van Os (ibid.) together with Anthony van Breen (cited in the NOTES to R 20074), as holder of a procuration from Francois van Os (the brother of Dirck van Os II cited above), who were all opposed to the late Daniel Sohier (NA 419A, Not. Jacob and Nicholaes Jacobsz.) Margarita Sohier had died before 9 January 1634, when, according to a deposition dated 31 August 1634, made by Arent Bosman, wine dealer, 70, and Gautier Ophogen, cloth dealer, 51, who had testified at the request of Daniel Sohier that they delivered wine and black cloth for the burial of Margarita Sohier who was already dead but had not yet been buried (NA 694B, film 4980, Not. J. Warnaerts). It was probably Jacques Mercier II who signed the petition of merchants calling for stabilization of the currency in 1643 (Van Dillen, Wisselbanken, R.G.P. 59(1925), p. 85). On 25 April 1640, Cornelis Pietersz., arms maker, declared at the request of Jacques Mercier de jonge (III), merchant, that Mercier had given him a cuirasse to clean and repair but that the cuirasse was rusted and corroded (Van Dillen, Bronnen tot de geschiedenis van het bedrijfsleven op.cit. 144(1974) p.270). |

| Buyer | Abraham de Schilder |
| Buyer Family | Schilder, Abraham de |
| Buyer Notes | The buyer, Abraham de Schilder, was taxed 300 f in the 1631 Kohier (fol. 94). On 16 December 1621, he and Andries Rijckaert I (who was the brother-in-law of Philips Metsu, whose daughter Cathalina was married to Abraham de Schilder) sold Gillis van Kessel a sugar refinery situated on the Keysersgracht (Van Dillen, Het oudste aandeelhoudersregister, p. 230). He was one of the executors of the testament of the art dealer Louys Rocourt (INVNO 6240). On 9 December 1619, Abraham de Schilder, from Middelburg, 27 years of age, was betrothed to Cathalina Philipsdr. Metsu, 19, assisted by Philips Metsu, her father and Edeltje Schellingher, her mother (DTB 424/ 85). On Philips Metsu, see the NOTES to R 27367. On 2 May 1623, Abraham de Schilder, merchant in Amsterdam, freighted a ship to French poorts (Winkelman, Bronnen voor de geschiedenis van de Nederlandse Oostzeehandel R.G.P., 186(1983), p. 581.) On 25 September 1626, he bought bulbs at the sale of Pieter Pietersz. tuynman (WK 5073/952). On 19 December 1634, notary J. van Zwieten, representing Sr. Abraham de Goyer of R 24908 lodged a complaint (insinuatie) against Sr. Philips Metsu, who had power-of-attorney from Abraham de Schilder, his swager (actually, his father-in-law), and notified him of the following facts. On 17 May 1633, a public auction had taken place held by Abraham de Schilder where Abraham de Goyer had bought two tulips, which in the opveylen (English auction) had been called Paragon Schilder. After he, De Goyer, had received them, he had found that they were similar in color, but very different in value, to what they were supposed to be. So the notary addressing Philips Metsu said that you, having a procuration from Abraham de Schilder, your swager, had answered several times that you would make it up ('sout effenen') with him, De Goyer. And De Goyer, seeing that matters had drifted without his being compensated for the harm that had been done, protested and held the auctioneer (De Schilder, vendumeester) responsible for any damages. The 17th May 1633, the following tulips were sold at the request of Abraham de Schilder and dat voor gereet gelt mits dat degeenen dye suffesante borgen stellen sullen genieten den tijt van ses wecken. Abraham de Schilder 1 Paragon Schilder tot f. 50:--:-- 1 Paragon dito tot f. 41:--:--(NA 863, fol. 405vo, Not.

Abraham de Schilder was buried in the W.K. on 24 January 1654 (DTB 1100B/123). |

| Buyer | secretaris Valckenier |
| Buyer Family | Valckenier, Wouter |
| Buyer Notes | The buyer was Dr. Wouter Valckenier, city secretary of Amsterdam since 1617, who lived with his parents Gillis Jansz. Valckenier and Claertgen Pauw in the Spinhuissteeg next to the Hamer. He was born in 1589 and died in 1650. He married Catharina van Drongen on 11 June 1619 and, after her death, Aefge (Eva) Appelman (1598-1669), daughter of Dr. Sijbrand Appelman and Trijntgen Coppit. Sijbrand Appelman may be the buyer named Appelman in R 31130. Wouter was the brother of Adriaen Valckenier of R 27377 (Elias, Vroedschap, p. 409.) Wouter Valckenier was the father of Clara Valckenier (1630-1710) who married Gaspar Pellicorne, the brother of Jan Pellicorne of R 23607. She owned a painting by Rembrandt (Schwartz, Rembrandt, p. 136). His son Sybrand, baptized in 1634, died childless in 1665. His other son Gillis Woutersz., baptized on 13 August 1623, became Lieutenant of the militia in 1646 (or ealier), captain in 1650, and curator of the Illustre School in 1652. On 14 August 1648, Gillis Valckenier, commissary of the Desolate Boedelskamer, accompanied by his father Wouter Valckenier, burgermaster, and by his stepmother Aeffje Appelmans (the second wife of his father), signed a pre-nuptial contract with Jacoba Rans, assisted by her sister Anna Rans, the heer Mr. Willem Borieel, lord of Duynbeecke, pensionary of Amsterdam, Jacoba Carels, lady of Duynbeecke, Dr. Jeronimus Rans (of INVNO 1334), her uncles and aunts, Constantia Coeymans, widow of Lenard Rans, also her aunt, Andries Adriaensz. and Carel [...] her nephews (NA 988, act 52, Not. J. Bosch). Jacoba Rans may have been the daughter of Pieter Rans (who died in 1640), of R 20574. Andries Adriaensz. cannot be either Andries Adriaensz. I or II, who both died before the date of this contract (see the NOTES to R 29031). The act of marriage is dated 15 September 1648 (Elias, op.cit. p. 479). Jeronimus Rans was the son of Lenard Rans and of Constantia Coeymans, daughter of Jeronimus Coeymans. Willem Boreel, cited above, was born in Middelburg in 1591 and died in Paris on 29 September 1668. He was embassador extraordinary to the Court of James I in 1613, one of the co-founders of the V.O.C., and pensionary of Amsterdam since 1627. He married Jacoba Carel, the daughter of Jan Jansz. Carel (de jonge), the son of Jan Jansz. Carel de oude (of R 28890) and of Anna Jans ten Grootenhuys, on 26 September 1626 (Elias, op.cit. p. 540). Adriaen Valckenier Gillisz., the brother of Wouter Valckenier, married Weijntje van Veen. The couple passed their testament (she being sick in bed) on 15 September 1636. They named Dr. Wouter Valckenier as guardian over their children along with the merchant Gerrit Adriaensz. Veen (NA 315, fol. 17). |

| Buyer Notes | There is a slim possibility that the buyer was the son of Dirck Jacobsz. de Vries, bourgomaster of Haarlem in 1554-4, 1556-7 and 1558, although these rather remote dates make the identification improbable. He may in any case have been related to the bourgomaster of the pre-Reformation period. The purchase of the painting for cash may be explained by the fact that the buyer was from out of town and perhaps could not get any one to stand surety for him while he collected the money. It may be noted that the next lot (R 20418) was bought by Jacob (Jacobsz.) Olycan, who had strong family ties with Haarlem. |

| Buyer | solvit [crossed out: Jacob Olycan] |
| Buyer Family | Olycan, Jacob |
| Buyer Notes | Elsewhere (R 40178) the buyer's name is spelled Olycamp. He is likely to be Jacob Jacobsz. Olycan, born on 7 July 1592, in Amsterdam, son of Jacob Pietersz. Olican, who lived in Amsterdam in the Olycan, from which he derived his name. His mother's name was Geertje IJsbrands. He became clerk of the Wees- en Rekenkamer of Amsterdam. He died in Amsterdam, unmarried, on 2 March 1669 (Archiefdienst vooor Kennmerland, nr. 44-000672 W, no name, no date). Given the ties of the Olycan family with Haarlem, it may be significant that the 27-year-old Olycan bought a painting immediately after Gerrit Dircksz. de Vries from Haarlem (LOT 0012). It is probable that he is also identical with Jacob Olycan who paid a tax of 30 f. in 1631 (living on the Oostervoorburgwal) (Kohier, fol 273, p. 62). In 1630, Jacob Olycan was portrayed by Niclaes Elias Pickenoy in the corporaalschap of Captain Cornelis Backer (Oud Holland, 4(1886), p. 104). On 25 February 1625, Jacob Olycan bought 4 pounds of marmelade at the Pieter Mercijs sale of cruijderijen (WK 5073/957). |

| Buyer | Ariaen Jacobsz. in Bergen in Noorvegen |
| Buyer Family | Jacobsz., Adriaen (van Noort) |
| Buyer Notes | Adriaen Jacobsz. (van Noordt) was a herring merchant and grain dealer. On 16 December 1595, Adriaen Jacobsz., from Bergen in Norway, 21 years old, living in the Kolck, assisted by his guardian Pieter Hendricksz. (?), was betrothed to Griet Jans, 26, living in the Corsgenpoort in the Nieustadt, assisted by her mother Ael Ariaens (DTB 407/307). On 27 October 1596, Arijan Jacobsz., viskoper (fish buyer), and Griet Jans had their son Wijllem baptized in the N.K. The godmother was Altgen Aryans, the mother of Griet Jans (DTB 38/534). On 24 May 1598, Arijan Jacobs, koopman, and Griet Jans had their daughter Altruijt baptized in the N.K. The godmother was Aryantje Jans (DTB 38/650). Ariaen Jacobsz. invested 300 f in V.O.C. shares. He was originally a sailmaker, but he was engaged in Northsea fishing by 1612. He was then a bergenviscooper (Van Dillen, Het oudste aandeelhoudersregister, p. 237). Adriaen Jacobsen freighted several ships between 1601 and 1610 (Winkelman, Bronnen voor de geschiedenis van de Nederlandse Oostzeehandel, R.G.P., 184(1983). p. 600, 185(1984), p. 122). On 31 December 1623, Adriaen Jacobsz. van Noord and his wife Griet Jans, along with several other Remonstrants, was excommunicated from the Reformed Church (Wagenaar, Amsterdam, vol. 1, p. 482). In 1627, he joined 26 other aalmoezeniers (provisioners for the poor) in a petition concerning the best way to collect a levy on grain to benefit the poor (Maandblad Amstelodamum 74(1987), p. 87). On 8 December 1628, when he brought some assets to the Orphan Chamber left by the late Adriaen Dominicus (of R 25508), who was his cousin or nephew (neve), he was called Adriaen Jacobsz. van Noort (WK 5073/789). This was also the name that he went by as regent of the Aalmoezeniersweeshuis in 1635 (Wagenaar, Amsterdam, vol. 2, p. 300). At the end of October 1631, Jasper Vinckel (of R 20783), 50, and Laurens Jacobsz., 30, declared at the request of Adriaen Jacobsz. van Noort that they had lived in his house, Vinckel for 7 years, Laurens Jacobsz. for 8, that they had seen his business and had had access to his factory (NA 842, Not. Hoogeboom) The daughter of Ariaen Jacobsz. and Griet Jans (Root) was betrothed to Herman de Bisschop (of R 20596), also a Remonstrant, on 12 September 1624. On 14 February 1631, Adriaen Jacobsz. van Noort, widower of Griet Jans Root, from Bergen in Norway, was married to Elisabeth van der Wel, widow of Jan Pietersz. du Bien, of R 30035. She was living on the Heerengracht (DTB 672/12). In 1631, Adriaen Jacobsz. van Noordt, living on the Heeregracht, on the West side of the Koninck van Denemarcken, paid a tax of 212 f. 10 st. His wife paid 100 f. and Ariaen Jacobs met zijn dochter 200 f. (Kohier, fol. 293, p. 67). Adriaen Jacobsz. died shortly before August 1639 when his death inventory was drawn up (INVNO 409). Willem Adriaensz. van Noort of R 23795 was probably his son. |

| Buyer | Pauwels Buys inde swarte Os in de Nieustraet |
| Buyer Family | Buys, Pauwels (I) |
| Buyer Notes | The buyer was probably Pauwels Buys de oude of INVNO 501. Originally a silk weaver from Antwerp, he migrated to Amsterdam in 1587 and died shortly before 1 June 1638 when his death inventory was taken (INVNO 501). On or about 10 July 1618, Philip Philipsz. insinuated Pauwels Buys at the home of his son Abraham Buys. In his absence the insinuation (about the failure of Pauwels Buys to pay a debt of 1,000 florins) was read to his maid (NA 621, Not. Sybrant Cornelisz.) Abraham Buys was married to Sara de Flines, the presumed daughter of Gilbert de Flines II (see the TEXT of R 1051 of Montias1). His other son, Paulus Buys de jonge (of R 23234 of Montias2), born about 1590, was betrothed to Lijsbeth van der Voort, the niece of the painter David Vinckboons, on 23 February 1625 (see the NOTES to R 23234). In 1625, the father became a broker. In 1629, he lent 700 f. to his son Paulus, against which loan the son pledged some paintings (Briels, Vlaamse schilders, p. 308.) |

| Buyer | solvit [crossed out: Cornelis Egericksz. pasteijbacker] |
| Buyer Family | Egericksz. (Eggericksz., Eggericx), Cornelis |
| Buyer Notes | The buyer was a pastry baker. He was perhaps the brother of David Eggericksz. who was a sugar refiner from 1620 to 1641 (Van Dillen, Bronnen tot de geschiedenis van het bedrijfsleven 78(1933), p. 363 and Poelwijk, In Dienste vant Suyckerbacken, p. 237). .) On 1 July 1606, Cornelis Eggerecx, from Antwerp, pasteybacker (pastry baker), 24, living in the Warmoesstraet (2 years), no living parents, assisted by Hans van Deurschen, his neve, was betrothed to Jannetje Jans, 24, living as above. He was literate, she was not (DTB 666/29). He was Roman Catholic, as were his children (see below). He paid a tax of 15 f. in 1631. It was probably his son Cornelis Eggericx II, born in 1614, also banketbakker, who was a director of the Amsterdam Schouwburg in 1650/51 (Jaarboek Amstelodamum 72(1981), p, 42). Another son, Albert Eggericx, was a notary. He married Clementia Segers (the daughter of Seger Pietersz. of R 32330 and the niece of the painter Pieter Lastman of R 20157) on 3 August 1642. After Albert's death, she remarried with the surgeon Dirck Vennecool on 12 April 1657 (Dudok van Heel in Jaarboek C.B.G. 48(1991), p. 129). On 27 February 1664, Clementia Segers, widow of Albert Eggericx, assigned to her son Seeger Eggericx a house on the Nieuwen Dijck, near the St. Nicolaesstraet, which had belonged to his grandfather Cornelis Eggericx, valued at f. 10,000 (ibid.) |

| Buyer | Christoffel Croeser in de Pijlsteeg |
| Buyer Family | Croeser, Christoffel |
| Buyer Notes | Christoffel Croeser was a wine merchant. On 1 June 1630, he was said to be 40 years old when, together with some other wine merchants, he made a declaration concerning the excise tax on wine (Van Dillen, Bronnen tot de geschiedenis van het bedrijfsleven R.G.P.78(1933), p. 709.) On 7 January 1615, Christoffel Croeser (signs Croese), from Uyttrecht, living in Uyttrecht, assisted by his father Gerard Kroeser, was betrothed to Catharina Gheerlinks (signs Gerlings), assisted by her mother Catharina Jans (DTB 418/292). On 19 January 1624, Christoffel Croeser, wijncoper, and Jan Cornelisz. van der Muy were named by the Orphan Chamber as guardians over the child left by Ysbrandt Danckertsz. (WK 5073/513, fol. 17vo.). Christoffel Croeser, together with the mother of his wife, paid a tax of 50 f. in 1631, at which time he was living on the East side of the N.Z. Voorburgwal (Kohier, fol. 146vo., p. 34.) On 11 March 1638, d'eersame Christoffel Croeser, wijncoper in Amsterdam, declared that on 19 December of the preceding year, for himself and for Arent Bosman, had bought some wine in the presence of Salomon Pietersz. Reus and Jan van Gansepoel, as brokers (maeckelaers) (N.A. 417, film 6434, Not. Jacob Jacobsz.) Arent Bosman, whose first wife was named Urseltge van Essen, was also a wine dealer (WK 5073/513, fol. 46vo. and R 10 of Montias1). Jan van Gansepoel seems to be identical with the cloth dealer of that name whose inventory was taken on 17 July 1625 (INVNO 616). That he was still alive, at least in 1636, is confirmed by a deposition dated 14 June 1636, in which Jan van Gansepoel was said to be 58 years old, an age consistent with the one he gave at the time of his betrothal in 1604 (NA 695A, film 4821). On 8 August 1636, broker Jan van Gansepoel transferred an obligation for 700 f. to his brother-in-law Nicolaes Cocquis (of R 20336) (NA 521, film 6505, Not. Westfrisius). Since Cocques was the brother-in-law of Jan van Gansepoel I, this again confirms the identity of the broker with the former textile merchant. |

| Buyer | Schepen Jan Willemsz. Bogaert |
| Buyer Family | Bogaert, Jan Willemsz. |
| Buyer Notes | The buyer, Jan Willemsz. Bo(o)gaert,1577-1638, was the son of Willem Jansz. Bogaert, born about 1540, who was buried in the N.K. on 15 April 1606. His mother was Giert Jans Vis, the daughter of Jan Claesz. Vis. The son Jan Willemsz., was soapboiler in de Kalverstraet (Elias, Vroedschap, pp. 281-2.) He was a member of the soapboilers' association (college) as well as that of the ash collectors (aschopslagersveemen) (Van Dillen, Bronnen tot de geschiedenis van het bedrijfsleven 78(1933), pp.130. 459). On 2 April 1603, Jan Willemsz. Bogaard, 25 years old, living in the Kalverstraet, assisted by his father Willem Jansz. Bogaard, was betrothed to Elisabeth Roeterts, 19, assisted by Roetert Ernst, her father (DTB 410/387). On Roetert Ernst, see R 30157. In 1599, his father had bought the soap-boiling works which he later called de Kleefse Daelder on the Kalverstraet. Jan Willemsz. was living there in 1606 when he bought lots for 8 f.8 st. in the Haarlem lottery (GAA, 89/15 F 668). In 1616, Jan Willemsz. bought a second establishment on the Rozenboomsteeg from the heirs of his brother-in-law Dirck Arentsz. Spiegel (1566-1615) (the husband of his sister Lysbeth Willems). On 30 September 1622, Jan Willemsz. Bogaert, former alderman, and Cornelis Arentsz., as uncles and guardians of Albert, 22, Neeltgen, 17, Annetgen, 15, the three children of minor age of Dirck Arentsz., soapboiler, whose mother was Lysbeth Willems, brought obligations (including one for 2,300 f.) accruing to the children from the death of their grandfather Arent Cornelisz. (1540-1604), herring dealer (WK 5073/789). Jan Willemsz. Bogaert and his family belonged to the strict Counter-Remonstrant party, an allegiance that helped him become alderman in 1619 after the Prince of Orange chose to side with the Counter Remonstrants and purged the Remonstrant administration of Amsterdam (S.A.C. Dudok van Heel, Jaarboek Amstelodamum, 83(1991), p. 76). However, by 1628, political circumstances had changed and, when he went to protest, together with 23 other Remonstrants, against the appointment of Jan Claesz. van Vlooswijck as captain of the militia, the petition was rejected. When he appeared before the judges on 27 January 1629, he chose to be banned from Amsterdam for a couple of years rather than pay a fine and confess his wrongdoing (Wagenaar, Amsterdam, vol. 1, p. 501). He was a master of the Nieuwe Kerck in 1613 (Wagenaar, Amsterdam, vol. 2, p. 118). On 16 March 1605, Jan Willemsz. Bogaert and Elisabeth Roeterts had their daughter Giertje baptized in the N.K. in the presence of Giert Jans (DTB 39/34). Giertje (or Gertruyd) married Otto Badius (of INVNO 174) in 1630. In 1631, Jan Willemsz. Bogaert, former alderman, living on the West side of the Calverstraet, was taxed 500 f. (Kohier, fol. 270vo, p. 62). The son of his sister Elisabeth Willems and of Dirck Arentsz. Spiegel, named Albert Spiegel, married Elisabeth de Vlaming van Oudtshoorn (Simiolus 29(2002), p.20). |

| Buyer | Adriaen Rijser de swager van Gerrit de Beer |
| Buyer Family | Rijser, Adriaen (Jansz.) (de) |
| Buyer Notes | On 27 June 1617, Adriaen Jansz. de Rijser, 36 years of age, assisted by Aechien Franssen, his mother, living on the Vlaemslot, was betrothed to Baertgen de Beer, 22, assisted by Gerrit de Beer (I), her father, living on the Oosterse marckt (DTB 421/244). On 30 June 1619, Aerjaen Jansz. Rijser and Baertje de Beer had their son Aerjaen baptized in the O.K. in the presence of Gerrit de Beer de jonge (II) and Aechjen Fransdr. (DTB 5/288). Adriaen Rijser freighted 15 ships between 1617 and 1623 (Winkelman, Bronnen voor de geschiedenis van de Nederlandse Oostzeehandel R.G.P., 186(1983), p. 780). He was buried on 23 November 1628 (DTB 1090/14). On 26 June 1634, Barentje de Beer, assisted by her guardian Gerrit Jacobsz. Haringh, declared before the Orphan Chamber that her three children, Gerrit, 12, Adriaen (II), 10, and Johannes, 8, whose late father was Adriaen Rijser, coopman, were entitled to 12,000 f. for their father's inheritance (WK 5073/789). Gerrit de Beer (I) is known to have invested 4500 f in V.O.C. shares and to have paid a tax of 250 f. in 1631 (Kohier, fol. 103v). He was a master of the Zuidekerck in 1611 (Wagenaar, Amsterdam, vol. 2, p. 132). Volckjen Jans Rijsers and Lysbeth Jans Rijsers were probably sisters of Adriaen Jansz. Rijser. The first was married to Hans van den Driesche and the latter to Gerrit Pietersz. Together with Dirck Jacobsz. Clapmuts and Rycklant Jacobs, widow of the notary Isaack van Gieteren, they were heirs of Jacob Thomasz. (NA 1266, fol. 29, Not. Barcman). It is probably Gerrit de Beer I who married Grietge Jelis Valckenier in 1608 (Van Dillen, Het oudste aandeelhoudersregister, p. 222). Gerrit de Beer I was buried on 27 October 1621 in the Z.K. (DTB 1089A/29v). On 23 January 1632, Johan ten Grootenhuysen (cited in the INTRO to INVNO 540), schout, Cornelis Michielsz. Blaeuw (cited in R 27902 and R 32580), and Nicolas Hem (cited in R 20033), all three appointed by the Orphan Chamber as guardians of Brechtgen, 12, the daughter of Brechtgen ten Grootenhuyse, whose father was Gerrit de Beer, who had died before 3 April 1632 (WK 5073/789). On this last date, the poor inventory of Gerrit de Beer (de jonge, II), insolvent, was drawn up. The only paintings it contained were portraits, two of them left for Brechtge de Beer (DBK 5072/351). |
