PROFESSIONS AND FUNCTIONS
Through the years the large majority (about 70 percent) of the members of the André de la Porte family have been employed in trade, industry and banking and insurance.
The other thirty percent of the professions and functions practised by André de la Porte's were extremely varied: vicars, psychologists, a pharmacist, a flight captain , architects, civil servants, functions in the judicature and barristers. Next there are four in the military force., one of them (Daniel Constatin Marie, 1873-1945) became deputy director of the Remonte. This was a now no longer existing unit which purchased horses and was responsible for their first training. Anthonie Engelbert (1804-1873) was officer in the military engineering. During his time as a teacher at the Royal Military Academy he played a leading role in developing the standardisation for topographical drawing for all arms.
