Blommaert's thirty-eight letters to [[Axel Oxenstierna]] from 1635 to 1641 are of great importance to the history of New Sweden. They mention [[Willem Usselincx]] one of the founders of the WIC, who had moved to Gothenburg in 1624 and founded the [[Swedish South Company]];  [[:sv:Peter Spiring]] dealt with the Dutch merchants.<ref>{{Cite journal |last=Odhner |first=C.
