Biography

Het familievermogen was opgebouwd door nazaten van een textielwerker die als een soort economische vluchteling in 1595 vanuit Noord-Frankrijk naar de Noordelijke Nederlanden was gekomen, Jean Pasquier Le Blanc (De Wit).

Eén van diens nakomelingen, Abraham III de Wit diende in de West-Indische Compagnie en is tevens de stichter geweest van de buitenplaats Slangevecht aan de Vecht in Breukelen, waar Kees Dudok de Wit het grootste deel van zijn leven zou verblijven. De zoon van Abraham III, Isaac de Wit, werd makelaar in suiker en trouwde met Margaretha Dudok. Door een Koninklijk Besluit van 16 april 1816 mocht zij haar familienaam toevoegen aan die van haar man, waardoor hun nazaten voortaan de naam Dudok de Wit kregen. Met de Hilversumse architect Willem Marinus Dudok bestaat slechts een verre verwantschap.(1)

The family fortune was built by descendants of a textile worker as a kind of economic refugee in 1595 from Northern France came to the Northern Netherlands , Pasquier Jean Le Blanc (de Wit ) .

One of his descendants, Abraham III de Wit served in the Dutch West India Company and was also the founder of the country seat Slangevecht aan de Vecht in Breukelen, where Kees Dudok de Wit would stay most of his life. The son of Abraham III , Isaac de Wit, was a broker in sugar and married Margaret Dudok. By a Royal Decree of April 16, 1816 she could add her name to that of her husband , leaving their descendants now with the name Dudok de Wit . The architect Willem Marinus Dudok Hilversum is only a distant relationship .<i>
