This deed was made by Trintgen Jansdr and is about a property in Hopsteeg nz, Delft- possibly the same property that was discussed in my last posting about Ariantje Thijssendr.
Thijs Jans is 'registered' - perhaps Trintgen's husband?
As heirs are Annitigen,(x2?) Arijaentgen & Pieter Thijs, all of the above's children?
Any further details which confirm (or not) my guess work would be much appreciated, as always.
very best wishes.

On 22 June 1610 a0ppeared before the notary Trijntgen Jans, living in the Hopsteeg and widow and estate holder of the late mason Thijs Jansz.
This is her will, in which she bequeaths to her daughter Annitgen Thijs, or the offspring of Annitgen:
- all her woolen clothes
- all her linen clothes
- the best bed and its accessories: two earpillows, two blankets, and a bedspread, all of best quality
- 150 guilders in cash
- the use of her house and the ground it stands on, situated at the north side of the Hopsteeg, for two more years after her death, provided that the heirs will properly maintain the house and perform any due payments
She grants this because her daughter helped her to solve the debts her late husband had and because her daughter is still providing her with food and drinks and care.
The 150 guilders should be paid from the revenues of the sale of the house after her daughter (or her offspring) had remained in the house for the two years after her death, and should be preceding the division of the remainder of her inheritance. To the remainder of her inheritance she declared her four children as heirs:
Pieter Thijs (cooper, 'kuiper'), Aryaentgen Thijs, Jannitgen Thijs, and the aforementioned Annitgen Thijs.
Anntigen and the two requested independent witnesses all sign by handmark, the only full signature is that of the notary.
