Willem van Heythuysen
Willem van Heythuysen (1690s – 1650), was a Dutch cloth merchant and hofje founder in Haarlem and Weert. He is best known today for his portraits by Frans Hals, though he is remembered locally for his ''Hofje van Willem Heythuijsen'' bordering Haarlemmerhout park, which has been in operation for centuries.
==Biography==
He was born in Weert, but moved to Haarlem via Cologne, where he first lived with Willem van Heuvel.〔(Speech by Pieter Biesboer ) in 2011 for the Limburgs Geschied- en Oudheidkundig Genootschap〕 He became a cloth merchant and lived in a large double house on the Oude Gracht (now called ''Gedempte Oude Gracht'') near the Verwulft. Like many other merchants of Haarlem, he owned a summer house along the Spaarne river, facing the Haarlemmerhout park. His neighbor there on the grounds of Spaar en Hout, was Zacharias Hooftman, an Amsterdam merchant who lived in the winter on the Herengracht.〔(Spaarnhout/Sparenhout/Spaar-en-hout ) on Hans Krol's website〕 Van Heythuysen never married, but lived with his sister Geertruyd.
Van Heythuysen drew up his will and testament in Haarlem with notary Willem van Trier on 13 September 1636. He named his sister Geertruyd as benefactress, but she died only a few weeks after he did in 1650. His will was then executed by his cousin Marten van Sittard and his associate Tieleman Roosterman. Most of what we know about him today comes from this document, which is also his charter for founding the hofjes named after him, namely the ''Hofje van Willem Heythuijsen'' in Haarlem, and the ''Hofje van Willem Heythuijsen'' in Weert. Though Weert is near the town of Heythuysen, Willem van Heythuysen's family had probably been living in Weert for at least a generation, because a year before he signed his will specifying hofjes to be built in Haarlem and Weert, he had already purchased a property for 925 guilders in Weert to found a poorhouse there which would give precedence to members of his family.〔(Willem van Heythuysen ) on Weert historical website〕 According to his will, the hofjes were to be built and maintained after his death with funds from the proceeds of his estate. He appointed his brother Frans van Heythuysen and Tieleman Roosterman to build the hofje in Weert.〔 Tieleman Roosterman was one of the two executors of the will, the other one was Marten van Sittard. Roosterman was also the one who built the hofje in Haarlem and he also became its first regent.
