 | | Notes: | From her Estate Accunts and the sale of her properties on the

De Mosselbank on the Mosselbank River, 62 morgen 16 roeden,
original grant 18 September 16983, most recently transferred
3rd and 6th of October 1724, now sold to Gerrit van Nieuwkerken,
and the other, named Roodenburgh, described as a house and
land, lying on the Rondebosje, extending to 15 morgen and 561
square roeden, first granted on the 5th January 1660 and most
recently transferred 9th October 1713, now sold to Christoffel
Bok. This property had belonged to her father and is described

of his daughter Willemina in 1724.

Notes: On the 21st August 1728, the Weeskamer
decided that she would be lodged with Hendrik de Vries
until her marriage with his son Jacob de Vries and that
her minor brother, Hendrik Plooij, would also go to live

Notes: On the 8th October, Jan van Nieuwkerken
applied to the Weeskamer for his wife's disabled sister,
a minor, to come and live with him and to have funds to
buy her a slave maid for her service, costs to be paid,
presumably from her inheritance, from the Weeskamer
funds. This was approved subject to notice when an
appropriate candidate was found.
(MOOC 1/6 Weeskamer Notulen, 8th October 1728)
As his wife's only other sister was already married, I
assume that it is Wilhelmina to whom this refers.

Hendrik de Vries until the time of her marriage to Jacob de
Vries (Minutes of the Weeskamer 21 August 1728, MOOC 1/6)
