Thanks Cor! -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Re: [DUTCH-COLONIES] [NEW-NETHERLAND] What is this WIC document From: cor snabel <[1]cor.snabel@gmail.com> Date: Wed, July 10, 2013 12:00 pm To: New-Netherland <[2]new-netherland@rootsweb.com>, Dutch Colonies <[3]Dutch-Colonies@rootsweb.com> Hello Jim and Chris, I have transcribed the document and it's a financial settlement the WIC had for it's investors and shareholders, because their financial situation was rather poor due to the war in Brasil and other events. They probably did sent a clerk to all the residences of those who invested, that would explain all the different kinds of ink and pens. If you're interested I could translate it, but I now started deciphering all the names and signatures. That is interesting to me.
