Summary

Delft

Chamber of Charity

Data have been used for the years 1624-1628 and 1641-1800, see AD, Kamer van Charitate, inv. nos. 1, 208 and 287-290. Samples have been taken from the accounts of the charity's estate agent to calculate the division between income from capital and real estate possessions on the one hand and from subsidies on the other hand for the period before 1716. The accounts from the following years have been used: 1628, 1641, 1642, 1643, 1644, 1645, 1650, 1655, 1660, 1665, 1670, 1675, 1680, 1685, 1690, 1695, 1700, 1705, 1710 and 1715, see AD, Kamer van Charitate, inv. nos. 210, 212-221, 224, 226 and 235.

Remonstrant church

Samples have been taken for the years 1705, 1734-1735 (the account covers two years) and 1765, see AD, Remonstrants-Gereformeerde gemeente, inv. nos. 115 and 116. There are no separate account books available of the church's charitable activities. The financial administration from the seventeenth century has due to its incoherent character not been used.

Lutheran diaconate

Samples have been taken for the years 1770, 1775, 1780, 1785, 1790, 1795 and 1800, see AD, Evangelisch-Lutherse gemeente, inv. no. 537. These accounts only include the financial administration of the congregation's deacons.

Walloon diaconate

Samples have been taken for the years 1650, 1700, 1750 and 1800, see AD, Waalse kerk, inv. nos. 844, 849, 851 and 852. These accounts only include the financial administration of the congregation's deacons.

Zwolle

City Poor Chamber

Data have been used for the years 1656-1683, 1692-1694, 1723, 1743-1793 and 1795-1800, see HCO, Stadsarmenkamer, inv. no. 91 and 97, and HCO, SA, inv. nos. 10105-10111 and 10124-10125. NB: These data have partly been collected by Elise van Nederveen Meerkerk.

Dutch Reformed Poor Chamber

Samples have been taken for the years 1770, 1780, 1790 and 1800, see HCO, Hervormde Gemeente, inv. no. 323.

Mennonite church

Samples have been taken for the years 1700, 1710, 1720, 1730, 1740, 1750, 1760 and 1770, see HCO, Doopsgezinde gemeente, inv. no. 155. There are no separate account books available of the church's charitable activities. The financial administration from the late seventeenth century has due to its incoherent character not been used. The accounts from the last decades of the eighteenth century, which can be found in inv. no. 156, could not be included because the collection revenues are often mentioned jointly with other income items.
