Hendrick Zwaardecroon
Hendrick or Henricus Zwaardecroon (26 January 1667 – 12 August 1728) was Governor-General of the Dutch East Indies from 1718 until 1725.
==Early career==
Zwaardecroon left for the East Indies as a midshipman aboard the ''Purmer'' in December 1684 and arrived in Batavia in October 1685. During the trip he had several times been employed as secretary to Commissioner-General Van Rheede, which enabled him to make quick progress in his career with the Dutch East India Company (VOC). In 1686 he became Bookkeeper (''boekhouder'') and subsequently Underbuyer (''onderkoopman''). In 1694, he was promoted to Buyer (''koopman'') and in 1694 to Senior Buyer (''opperkoopman''). In the same year he was appointed Commander (''commandeur'') in Jafnapatham in Ceylon. He was Commissioner (''commissaris'') on the Malabar Coast and acting Governor of Ceylon in 1697. He became, in 1703, Secretary to the High Government of the Indies (''Hoge Regering'') in Batavia, and in 1704, through the influence of the Governor-General, Joan van Hoorn, an extraordinary member of the Dutch Council of the Indies (''Raad van de Indië''). Through that membership, and later because the Governor-General Christoffel van Swoll had been trying to get him removed from the Council, preferably by promotion elsewhere, it took until 1715 before the Lords Seventeen (''Heren XVII'') named him as full member (''gewoon lid'').
