- Jacob Alewijnsz
speldemaker (1593)
of north west corner of the Jacob Geritsen Straet
buried 10 January 1608, Oude Kerk, Delft
Notes: In 1593 a Jacob Alewijnsz Speldemaker (surname or occupation?) obtained permission to build a warehouse for his house on the north west corner of the Jaep Gerritsstaet (Delftgemeentearchief, Consent boek 1 f.40, 23 Sept. 1593) On the 10th January 'Jacob Alewynsz inde Snoock, oude langendijck' was buried from the Oude Kerk. Of the five children that I have assumed are his, Alewijn and Willem are certainly brothers, since Josina Tol, daughter of the latter, refers to Jacob, the son of the former, as her cousin in her will of 1663; Sara Jacobsdr Tol, in the Weeskamer records dated 1663, is referred to as the aunt of Jacob Alewijns Tol; In 1633 Maria Jacobsdr. Tol refers to 'Elsgen Willems, daughter of her brother'; in her will dated 1630, Jannetgen Jacobsdr mentions the children of her late brother, Willem Jacobsz.
