This concerns Willem Jansz Verstarren..possibly concerns a property in Delft.

I think I read 'porcelynebaker'? Any further information from this brief entry would be very useful.

With thanks as always.

Heel erg bedankt Geert.

Can I just check (as using Google translate can often misunderstand words) does this say that the house was sold fo 1125 guilders , and 7 guilders and 6 pence for the doors?

very best wishes.

No 'deuyten' refers to a sort of taxes. To be paid in addition tot the price for which the house was sold.

Ah good job I asked Geert!

I thought it was odd that you paid separately for doors to a house you'd bought.

Thanks for the clarification.

best wishes

Anne
