Biography

Michael Johannis De Mandeville was born in 1585 in Leeuwarden, Friesland, Netherlands to Johannis De Mandeville and his wife, Anna van Leeuwarden. He married Maria Van De Rade on June 13, 1601, in Franeker, Friesland, Netherlands. They had eight children in 21 years. He died on October 11, 1635, at the age of 50.

Michael Johannis Mandeville, was born in Leeuwarden and registered as a student of medicine at the nearby University of Franeker in 1595(7). In 1601 he married Maria van der Raede, daughter of a printer from Antwerp who had settled in Franeker.
In the same year he was appointed city physician in Nijmegen and rector of the Latin school there. Such a combination of positions was not unusual in the sixteenth century; Michael evidently still fit the humanistic ideal of the universal scholar. In any event, he gave up his rectorship in 1607, receiving in exchange a salary increase as physician. In 16 17 he acquired citizenship in the city and a year later was accepted into the city council [vroedschap] and appointed alderman [schepen], positions that he would continue to fill until the year before his death.
The couple had ten children, four of whom died before the age of ten; high infant mortality was not unusual in that period.
The only daughter married an advocate.
The five surviving sons all went to university, four of them studying at Franeker. The oldest studied theology and law and became a minister in the Reformed Church; the second studied law, the third medicine and the fourth Latin. Immanuel ^[1], studied law at Leiden. Presumably the sons were consciously spread over different academic disciplines by their father since this was a fairly common educational strategy.
In 1635 and 1636, the family fell victim to an epidemic of plague in Nijmegen, both the parents and the second son died. ^[2]

  There is obviously a lot of confusion between this Michael and another older Michael who was a doctor; the reference to a seal of Michael is on a document signed after this Michael's death; perhaps it related to his son Michael; references to this Michael being nominated at age 16 as a professor of medicine and rector is not likely; nor could he possibly be the Dr Michael who served in the plague and died as a result 4 years after this man is said to have died; the man who was the doctor must have been an uncle, great-undcle or cousin to this man, they cannot be the same person; This man was not a Huguenot from Normandy as suggested, perhaps his father was, but then there are records of the Mandevilles in the same area back to 1501, what indication is there that they were ever in Normandy, much less from there;
  Note: Michael de Mandeville and 7 of his children received the Burgherright of Nijmegen; the next year, when Prince Maurits replaced the magistry, Michael was assigned alderman of Nijmegen 1618.
