Biography

Document of 1105 (Oorkonde) in which Wolfgerus is mentioned."

Wolfgerus was born about 1075. He passed away about 1131. He was sherif (schout) van Amestelle. He was ministerial of the bishop of Utrecht.

On July 7 of 1126 he was called "Wolfgerus de Amestelle", no longer "scultetus (schout) de Amestelle." This points to the fact that he took on the name of "Amestelle" and therefore is considered the founder of the van Amstel family.
