He became established in 1942, according William Henley's Universal Dictionary of Violin Makers Upon his father's death in 1991 at the age of 95, his youngest son, Willem Weertman, had inherited his records and compiled an index of the violins, violas and cellos he made, totaling about 200. According to Wenberg, Roelof Weertman made about 200 violins, 150 violas and 51 cellos or around 400 instruments total. The Label Text on paper is: Roelof Weertman Cape Cod July 10-1969
