On 29 April 1046, a request was made to grant privileges for goods brought to Pava and Madia on Dutch ships. However, the official noted that the request could not be approved because:

• The existing tariff (called Ne3) for incoming and outgoing duties did not allow for it.
• The decision was beyond their authority and required input from higher officials.

The official also received petitions from merchants Romswinckel and Van der Burg in Batavia, asking for equal treatment for Dutch and Dutch-Indies ships, specifically for their vessels Aletta Chier and Maria Coharma, as well as for all ships sailing under the Dutch-Indies flag. Despite growing support (as mentioned in a secret letter from 11 April) for equal treatment of Dutch and Dutch-Indies ships, the official decided that the individual requests from Romswinckel and Van der Burg were not significant enough to justify an immediate decision.

The merchants were informed that their requests could not be granted, referencing a previous decision on a request by Captain George Batten.

The official also mentioned receiving a letter from Nahuys van Burgst in Amsterdam (dated April 1046), which referred to earlier orders from 10 April, 25 April, and 5 March.

  • Groot Gijselaar, a cowkeeper from Winden, who sold rye for ƒ4.50, with Teme Hotman and Dirk te Haar as guarantors.
• The total recorded sales amounted to ƒ98.50 for transport and goods, with additional notes on taxes and notary fees.
• A separate legal notice, recorded by Jacobus van Riemsdijk, a notary in Almelo, announced a public auction on the following Friday at 3 PM. The auction was for the estate of the late Jan Kamp, a farmer from Nierdens. His widow, Senaehen Meijers, acted on behalf of their underage children: Hermannus, Berendire, and Janna Kamp.
• The auction included household furniture, farming tools, rye, and other seeds. The notary signed the document on August 1, 1836.
• The receiver, H. Mauger Muntz, was entitled to 1.8% of the proceeds, and the notary, Jacobus van Riemsdijk, was based in Almelo, the main town of the district.

On 19 November 1823, Albert Kamp bought a house with some farmland in Almelo from Berend Bavink. The property was roughly the size of 1 roede and 60 ellen (a traditional Dutch measurement), and the purchase was recorded in Almelo on 7 February 1824. The house and land were valued at 150 guilders, with an estimated rental value of 7.50 guilders.

Later, Albert Kamp and another party (likely H. J. de Brugge) agreed to exchange properties. The second party transferred ownership of a house in Wierden to Albert Kamp. This house was located next to the homes of Jan Wanschers and Mansus Eshuis and was registered as New Number 121 and Old Number 108. The property included:

• A piece of farmland, roughly 36 roeden and 32 ellen, called "den gaarden," located in front of the house near land owned by Mannes Eshuis, Jan Wanschers, and G. H. Wannekers.
• Another piece of farmland, 18 roeden and 16 ellen, which owed tithes (a type of tax) to G.J.O.D. Dikkers in Borne. This land was near property owned by Harm Niesink and H.r Gierveld.
• A small plot of wasteland, roughly 1 roede and 16 ellen, bought from the Markte of Wierden in 1827 for 4 guilders.

The total value of the exchanged property was estimated at 400 guilders, with a rental value of 20 guilders. As part of the deal, Albert Kamp agreed to pay the other party 250 guilders. The agreement was signed in Wierden on 1 March 1828 by Albert Kamp and H. J. de Brugge, and officially registered in Almelo on 17 May 1828.

On 21 April 1828, at 11 AM, in the home of Kastelein Johannes Hendrikus Witbroek in Oldenzaal, a notary named Hendrikus Mensink oversaw a legal process. Present were:

• Engbert Waalstede, a farmer;
• Johanna Waalstede, a servant working for Jannes Welhuis;
• Jannes Welhuis, acting as guardian for his minor relative Hermannus Waalstede;
• Gerrit Jan Mors, a farmer and father acting as legal guardian for his minor daughter Johanna Mors (daughter of his late wife Euphemia Waalstede);
• Johannes Welhuis, a schoolteacher and supervising guardian for the two minors.

All parties involved were residents of the Buurschap Lutte or Berghuizen in the municipality of Losser. The meeting followed legal procedures based on the law of 12 June (year not specified in this section).

On an unspecified date, Hermen Meijer and his wife Aaltjen Wolters formally acknowledged a debt of 1,100 guilders to Adolph Frederik Lodewijk, Count of Rechteren Limpurg. They agreed to repay this amount in full, without any objections or legal delays, at the count’s residence or to whoever held the official deed of debt.

• The repayment was due every January 26, starting in 1825, but only after a formal notice was given at least 6 months in advance.
• Until full repayment, they would pay annual interest of 4% (4 guilders per 100) on the same date.
• Payments had to be made in gold or silver coins currently in use—never in paper money, banknotes, or other government-issued securities, even if legally allowed.

As security for the debt, Hermen Meijer and Aaltjen Wolters pledged two properties they owned in the municipality of Stieden (near Wierden):

• Two plots of farmland on a field called Velthamp, totaling about 90 roods and 78 ell (Dutch measurements). These plots were separated by another piece of land owned by Roelif Coster and bordered:
  • To the east: land called de Vlessche, owned by Jannes Nysink, Hendrik Coster, Hendrik Keizer, Berend Coster, and Roelif Meijer.
  • To the west: common village fields.
  • At one end: the house and land of Gerrit Hendrik Dasselaar.
• One plot of taxable farmland in Wierden’s Esch, about 36 roods and 31 ell, located between land owned by Jan Gierveld and Jannes Staaman.
• One plot of farmland near de Borger, about 36 weden and 31 ell (another Dutch measurement), behind the Esch. It bordered:
  • To the west: land owned by the creditor (Count of Rechteren Limpurg).
  • On the other side: common village fields.

The couple declared under oath that these properties were fully theirs, free of any other mortgages or claims. They understood the legal consequences of lying, as explained by the notary in front of witnesses.

On an unspecified date, a land auction took place in den Ham (likely a district or village). The following parcels of land were sold or auctioned:

• First parcel: Approximately 8 rods and 95 ell (a traditional unit of measurement) of land, bordered by:
  • The east: land owned by the widow Straatmans.
  • The west: a parcel called "Swede."
  • The south: common land.
  • The north: the widow Harmen Joerserm.
  This parcel included a path leading to the widow Straatmans' land. It was initially priced at 275 guilders, then increased by Lambertus Hersen by 50 guilders, reaching a final price of 325 guilders.
• Second parcel: About 42 rods and 55 ell of grassland called "De Leege Maat," bordered by known ditches. The upper part was accessible via a path shared with Hendrik Lubbers. It started at 40 guilders and was increased by Jannes Pas to 59 guilders.
• Third parcel: Approximately 5 rods and 37 ell of land in front of a house, bordered by:
  • The seaside: land owned by Gduige Hammen Poesten.
  • The west: Gerrit Poet.
  • The east: the heirs of Eendes.
  • The north: the first parcel.
  It started at 53 guilders and, after multiple increases by Jan Voortvanberden, reached 74 guilders.
• Fourth parcel: Initially priced at 150 guilders, it was increased by Bernardus Wegers to 180 guilders. This parcel was not sold and remained unsold.
• Fifth parcel: Initially priced at 36 guilders, it was increased by Lambertus Voersen to 50 guilders.

The first, second, third, and fifth parcels were grouped together as a "mass" with a combined price of 508 guilders. This total was increased by Hendrik Jan Gierveld by 12 guilders, bringing the final price to 520 guilders. The group of parcels was then sold to Hendrik Jan Gierveld, with Helmich Bossink acting as guarantor. Both were from the community of den Ham.

The auction was recorded in the presence of witnesses Hendrik Negel (an innkeeper) and Jannes Poel (a field bailiff), both residents of den Ham. The document was signed by the seller, the notary (H. Lendenhovius and A van Elburg), the witnesses, and others involved. The original record remained in the possession of the notary.
