Hans Vlamingh (d. ca. 1672 at [[Amsterdam (Noord-Holland, Netherlands)|Amsterdam]]), a Mennonite merchant in Amsterdam who took a warm interest in the oppressed and persecuted [[Swiss Brethren|Swiss Brethren]] in the canton of [[Bern (Switzerland)|Bern]]. He sent several letters to the authorities at Bern, two of them dated 24 October 1659, and 16 April 1660, which were published by Ernst Müller. Vlamingh presents a lengthy declaration of the innocence of the Swiss Brethren and the obligation of the state to grant them the free exercise of their religion. Besides his intervention Vlamingh started a relief action in the [[Zon, De (Amsterdam, Netherlands)|Amsterdam Zonist congregation]], in which also the [[Lamist Mennonite Church (Amsterdam, Netherlands)|Lamist congregation]] participated. A Commission for Swiss Matters was appointed (which later developed into the general Mennonite Committee for Foreign Needs), on which Vlamingh served as secretary and treasurer. In 1671 he corresponded with Swiss leaders who had recently immigrated to the [[Palatinate (Rheinland-Pfalz, Germany)|Palatinate]], e.g., Valentin Huthwohl, Johann Clemens, and Jacob Everlinck. From the Palatine Mennonites he received a letter of thanks with a list of the Mennonites who had immigrated into the Palatinate from [[Switzerland|Switzerland]]. Vlamingh, whom Ottius called "Hans Flamming, a Mennonite, a merchant of Amsterdam, an honest and reliable man," was a loyal Mennonite. In 1639 he was active in the merger of the [[Frisian Mennonites|Frisian]]-High German congregation of Amsterdam with the [[Flemish Mennonites|Flemish]] "bij't Lam" church. In the same year he was at [[Utrecht (Netherlands)|Utrecht]] to bring about a similar union between the Frisian and Flemish congregations. In 1639 and from 1656 he was a deacon of the [[Lamists|Lamist]] church. In the schism of 1664 (see [[Lammerenkrijgh|Lammerenkrijgh]]) Vlamingh sided with the conservative [[Zonists|Zonists]] and served as a deacon in the Zonist church as well as treasurer from the beginning. In this capacity he asked the Lamists for a division of the church property.
