He was probably born in June 1603 and possibly in Breda. In 1631 he became Lord of Grimhuizen and, on 5 October 1631, married Maria van Aerssen and they became the parents of three children. On 21 November 1632 he was appointed 'ritmeester' in the Dutch republic's army. He was only just thirty-five when he died in Leiden where he was also buried, his widow surviving him by only three years.
