(Jodocus Hondius had acquired the copper plates from Mercator's son in 1604). His death date is unknown, though it was likely before 1643. He had at least two sons, Pieter Goos (1616–1675) and Abraham Goos (baptized 1621), and a daughter, Cathalyna (baptized 1623). Pieter was also an engraver; in 1643 he married Susanna de Reyger and, widowed, he married Geertruyt van Ruyff in 1649. Like his father, he engraved maps, including a map of Spitsbergen (published in 1650 by Cornelis de Leeuw), and another in 1662, in an atlas called De Zee-Atlas ofte Water-weereld.
