14580. Berendt (Berent) Ulrich
† 1640 (approximately)
C: Mattes Ulrich (†1661-06-03, Norrköping, Östergötland, E).
H: The identity of Mattes Ulrich’s father is uncertain, but it has been
suggested that his father probably was Berendt Ulrich, a handelsman
(tradesman) in Norrköping, Östergötland (E), based on the last name,
residence and profession (S: Olof Cronberg, 2004). Berendt Ulrich started his
career in Östergötland as hertig (duke) Johan’s barberare or fältskär (barbersurgeon).
In 1616 at the latest he settled down in Dalskvarteret in Norrköping
where he lived until his death around 1640. Already when he served hertigen
mäster Berendt had been engaged in commerce, for example with the city of
Danzig. In the spring of 1628, he belonged to redarna (roughly, the
shipowners) who had loaded supplies to be shipped for the Crown to Riga.
Medredarna (his shipowning colleagues) were Anders Svensson, Anders
Matsson, Peter Carstens and Lars Henriksson. All five of them were engaged
in trading and belonged to stadens förmögnaste borgerliga skikt (roughly, the
city’s wealthiest burgher citizens). Together with Louis De Geer, among
others, Berent Ulrich had established a Nyenska kompaniet that would trade
with Russia. They lobbied riksrådet (the royal court advisor) in order to
receive economic support for this activity (S: Olof Cronberg, 2004, Björn
Helmfrid & Salomon Kraft, 1973).
