BirthOrigin* | Willem was from Ijlpendam modern day Ilpendam, and was perhaps born there circa 1640. The date is estimated.1,2 |
Slave Transactions | On 17 December 1669 Pasquael van Bengale was sold by Jochem Marquart to Claes Goselijck, Willem Cornelisz van Ijlpendam and Jurgen Cornelisz, for Rds 100. The purchasers were free Saldanhavaarders.1,3 |
Property Transactions | On 17 February 1672 Henrick Barentze van der Zee sold De Bruijd and the traanbranders [whale oil smelters?] to the Saldanhavaerders Jurgen Cornelisz, Willem Cornelisz van Ijlpendam and Arnoldus Willemsz Basson, for an acknowledgement of debt in the amount of f 550. The two slaves, Simon van Angola and Gerrit van Bengale were not mentioned, however Gerrit appears to have returned to the ownership of Jochem Marquart, who subsequently emancipates him. Barentsz: appears to have later emancipated Sijmon, or at least expressed a sick-bed wish to do so.4 |
