Huis Wickenburgh

Het tegenwoordige huis Wickenburg ligt in de gemeente Houten ongeveer 800 meter west-noordwestelijk van het oude dorp 't Goy aan de noordzijde van de Wickenburgsesteeg. Het huis Wickenburg was vanouds een Stichts leen. Het ligt ca. 750 meter westelijk van de plaats waar zich oudtijds een groter en machtiger slot, het huis Ten Goye bevond, een allodiaal goed. Over de zich ter zijde van het huis bevindende duiventoren vermeldt Van der Aa dat deze het enige overblijfsel zou zijn van één van de twee bastions welke ter verdediging van dit kasteel diende. De geringe muurdikte en de ligging van dit object maken deze bewering echter hoogst onwaarschijnlijk.

Het huis Wickenburg komt onder deze naam voor het eerst voor tegen het einde van de veertiende eeuw. Bij de aanvang van die eeuw heet het nog de huse te Westensteyne en werd het van het Sticht in leen gehouden door Hubrecht van Go(l)berdingen, die op 29 februari 1300 aan de bisschop van Utrecht beloofde het Sticht niet te zullen schaden uit zijn huis, maar de bisschop daarmede te zullen dienen en het hem te zullen overgeven, als deze in oorlog zou geraken met de heer van Arkel, de heer van Culemborg of de heer van Vianen. In dorso treft men de gelijktijdige aantekening uit de bisschoppelijke kanselarij aan: 'obligatio Huberti de Golberdingen de domo in Westrem seu Westeynde'. Het huis Westrem of Westeynde (d.i. Wickenburg) vormt dan de oostelijke begrenzing van het land Westrem, dat (zie kaart) het tiendgebied van de Westrummerweide beslaat: 'Westrummerweyde gaett aen oestwerd aenden Affterwech (Utrechtse weg) bij Loerickerbrugge; zuydtwerdt aende Vuylbrugge omcrommend doer tZijssdall (de tiendvrije Cijshofstede) tott Wickenborch toe: westwerdt aende Leewech toe; noortwerdt aende Leesloot toe'. De benaming Westrum duidt op de situatie van het gebied als gelegen ten westen van het hierboven genoemde huis Ten Goye. Evenzo ligt het land Oostrum of Oostrummerhofstad ten oosten van het huis Ten Goye (zie kaart): 'Oostrummerhoffstadt gaett aen oestwerdt aent Vrouwen huysken after tGoeye staende; zuytwerdt aen de Meerslott tott int Goeyerderp toe; westwerd aenden Molenwech; Noortwerdt aenden Affterwech (Utrechtse weg)'.

Tot 1409 werd het huis in leen gehouden door het geslacht Van Goberdingen. Op 17 april van dat jaar werd Willem van Oostrum ermee beleend 'des Peter van Goberdingen uutgegaan is'. De omschrijving van het leengoed is in dit charter voor het eerst dezelfde als in de latere in dit archief aanwezige beleningen: 'dat huis toe Wickenborch mitter hofstede en mitten smallen teenden ende mit eenre halven hoeven lants'. Van 1409 tot 1630 was het huis Wickenburg in handen van leden van het geslacht Van Oostrum. Nog in een in het protocol van transporten van het gerecht van Houten en 't Goy geregistreerde akte d.d. 27 mei 1678 wordt het aangeduid als 'van Oostrums hofstede genaemt Wickenborgh'.

Op 11 december 1630 beleenden de Staten van Utrecht Lubbert van Westrenen, kanunnik van St.-Pieter, na opdracht door Willem van Oostrum, heer van Broekhuyzen. Diens zoon Martinus van Westrenen, die in 1659 ermee werd beleend, schijnt geldgebrek te hebben gehad: hij belastte het huis Wickenburg met een zware schuld, onder andere in 1659 met twee plechten van ƒ 4500,- ten behoeve van resp. Hendrik Quintlakenkoopman, en Nicolaas Hamel, oud burgemeester van Utrecht.

Om zijn schulden te dekken, moest hij in 1671 zijn huis in de Breestraat te Utrecht en het huis Wickenburg verkopen. Toen dit laatste openbaar werd verkocht, werd door de koopgegadigden levering bij willig decreet bedongen. De inventaris van het vermogen benevens een gespecificeerde opgave van de schulden van Martinus van Westrenen, bij die gelegenheid ten behoeve van zijn crediteuren opgemaakt, is in dit verband zeer illustratief. Mr. Nicolaas Hamel en Hendrik Quint die bij deze verkoop ook preferentie hadden op de kooppenningen, hebben blijkbaar meteen van de gelegenheid gebruik gemaakt om het goed te kopen. Het huis Wickenburg met bijbehorende grond-in totaal ca. 40 morgen - bracht ƒ 13.900,- op. Deze procedure heeft blijkbaar niet kunnen verhoeden dat in 1680 de weduwen van Nicolaas Hamel en Hendrik Quint een proces tegen Gijsbert van Voorst met betrekking tot een bij deze verkoop in 1673 niet in rekening gebrachte hypotheek in eerste instantie verloren.

Op 9 mei 1677stierf mr. Nicolaas Hamel. Bij een akte van scheiding en deling onder zijn kinderen en erfgenamen d.d. 19 april 1689 verkreeg Ferdinant van Hatting, die gehuwd was met Mechtelt Maria Hamel, een dochter van mr. Nicolaas Hamel, de helft van het huis Wickenburg met bijbehorende grond. Op 27 november 1697 werd Ferdinant van Hatting beleend met het gehele goed, na opdracht door zijn zwager Frederik Hamel, raad in de vroedschap van Utrecht, voor de éne helft, en door de executeurs van het testament van het echtpaar Hendrik Quint en Sara Goverts voor de andere helft. Op 1 augustus 1698 volgde de overdracht van de helft van het bij Wickenburg behorende allodiale goed door de erfgenamen van het echtpaar Hendrik Quint en Sara Goverts aan Ferdinandus van Hatting.

Toen na de dood van Ferdinant van Hatting op 20 januari 1740 in hetzelfde jaar ook zijn vrouw Mechtelt Maria Hamel stierf, beleenden de Staten van Utrecht op 21 januari 1741 Margaretha van Suchtelen, vrouwe van Stoetwegen en nicht van laatstgenoemde. Deze was gehuwd met Mr. Hendrik Assuerus Wttewaal, raad en burgemeester van de stad Utrecht, die behalve van de tak Wttewaal van Stoetwegen ook stamvader is geworden van de tak Wttewaal van Wickenburgh. Van deze laatste tak heeft een groot aantal leden op het huis hebben gewoond, waaronder zijn zoon Johannis Wttewaal, resident van Gorontalo, die op 10 september 1812 op Wickenburgh overleed, en zijn kleinzoon mr. Gerard Wttewaal (overleden 6 juli 1833), vanaf 1803 schepen van Utrecht en vanaf 1822 hoogleraar in de landhuiskunde aan de Universiteit te Leiden. Over deze laatste vermeldt het Nieuw Nederlands Biografisch Woordenboek: 'Waarschijnlijk heeft de landhuishoudkunde hem al vroeg aangetrokken in verband met zijn bekendheid (door Wickenburg) met het landelijk bedrijf'. Zijn zoon Jan, door zijn vader in de liefde voor de landbouw opgevoed, wordt geëerd als een van de grondleggers van de wetenschappelijke landbouw in Nederland. Ook zijn oudere broer Bartholomeus Willem, wijnkoper te Leiden en een der oprichters van het stedelijk museum de Lakenhal aldaar, heeft het een en ander op landhuishoudkundig gebied geschreven, met name in de door zijn broer Jan geredigeerde Landbouw-Courant.

Voor dit archief van belang is het huwelijk van bovengenoemde Bartholomeus Willem Wttewaal met Maria Cornelia Hartevelt in verband met de stukken betreffende goederen onder Katwijk en Zoeterwoude, die oorspronkelijk uit de familie van deze laatste afkomstig zijn. Door haar moeder Johanna Diderica van der Burch, gesproten uit de Goudse tak van het geslacht Van der Burch, is ook een aantal stukken betreffende huizen in Gouda en goederen onder Willens, Gouderak en Hazerswoude in dit archief terechtgekomen.

Archief

In 1957 is dit archief (1,0 m) door de heer B.W.G. Wttewaal te Houten aan het (voormalig) Rijksarchief Utrecht in bewaring gegeven. De vier jaar later door W.L.A. Roessingh gemaakte inventaris is in 2001 met enkele kleine wijzigingen opnieuw uitgebracht.

De inventaris is ingedeeld in drie hoofdafdelingen. Van de eerste hoofdafdeling, 'Stukken van persoonlijke aard', te beschouwen als een klein familiearchiefje, spreken de verschillende onderafdelingen voor zichzelf. Onder de stukken in deze hoofdafdeling bevinden zich ook enkele van financiële aard. Deze zijn hier geplaatst in de overweging dat hun belang zich in het algemeen niet verder heeft uitgestrekt dan het leven van één persoon. Ook de indeling van de tweede hoofdafdeling, 'Stukken van zakelijke aard', spreekt voor zichzelf. Het voornaamste bestanddeel hiervan zijn de stukken betreffende het huis Wickenburg en de daaromheen en bij het dorp 't Goy gelegen goederen. Een derde onderafdeling wordt gevormd door stukken betreffende goederen buiten de provincie Utrecht. De verschillende gerechten en heerlijkheden waaronder de goederen vallen zijn, voor zover het de tegenwoordige provincie Zuid-Holland betreft, alfabetisch gerangschikt, daarna volgen de elders buiten de provincie Utrecht gelegen goederen. Een drietal getransfigeerde eigendomsbewijzen betreffende een 1/2 morgen onder Alten-Calcar zijn ook in deze onderafdeling geplaatst in de overweging dat deze stukken slechts door Johan Adolf Bachman, rechter in het ambt van Grieth en Alten-Calcar, wiens dochter Swana Maria gehuwd was met mr. Arent van der Burch, in dit archief terechtgekomen kunnen zijn.
