history
In 1612 Henry van Laer married dead Hoenlo, Anne Bertrame van Eyll. Anne was the only daughter of Sybert III van Eyll, who owned the Chateau d'Erp as lord of Baarlo. When Sybert died in 1613, Henri van Laer zu Hoenlo became the new master of Baarlo. The glory remained in the hands of this family until 1690. After Anne died in 1626, Henri remarried, this time Christina van Bylandt in 1632. The son John Bertram van Laer, born shortly before this marriage, married in 1662 to Alexandrina Maria van Hasselholt called Stockhem. Her father, John Godefridus, bought the glory of Blerick from King Charles II of Spain in 1674 .
After Johannes died in 1677, John Bertram became lord of Blerick until he died in 1702. From 1679 he had to share the glory of the property successively with the Romer and Ruys families. He was followed in 1702 by his son Otto Henricus as master of half of the glory and moved into the Heershof (also called Laerhof) while the other families lived in Boerlo Castle. Both halves remained in the possession of the respective families in the French period after all feudal rights had expired. Anthony Sigismundis was the last of the van Laer family between 1742 and 1792 and was part of the Blerick family.
