Anna van den Vondel ca 1620-1675

Anna was de eerste dochter van Joost van den Vondel en Mayke de Wolff. Ze werd geboren op de Warmoesstraat 39 waar Vondel sr. een winkel in zijde had met de naam De Reghtvaerdige Trou. In 1652 ging zij met haar vader op de Prinsen- gracht wonen en op haar sterfbed, op 16 juli 1675, vermaakte zij het grootste deel van haar bezit aan hem. Daarmee werd Vondels oude dag veiliggesteld.

(English translation:)

Anna was the first daughter of Joost van den Vondel and Mayke de Wolff. She was born at 39 Warmoesstraat where Vondel Sr. had a silk shop called De Reghtvaerdige Trou (“The Righteous Faith”). In 1652 she went to live with her father on the Prinsengracht, and on her deathbed, on July 16, 1675, she bequeathed most of her property to him. This secured Vondel's old age.

Erected by Geef Straten Een Gezicht.
