Where did the English Hain family come from? What is the English Hain family crest and coat of arms? When did the Hain family first arrive in the United States? Where did the various branches of the family go? What is the Hain family history?

The rich and ancient history of the Hain family name dates back to the time of the Anglo-Saxon tribes of Britain. It comes from the baptismal name for Haine. As the naming tradition grew in Europe baptismal names began to be introduced in many countries. Baptismal names were sometimes given in honor of Christian saints and other biblical figures. There are very few Christian countries in Europe that did not adopt surnames from these religious figures.

Spelling variations in names were a common occurrence before English spelling was standardized a few hundred years ago. In the Middle Ages, even the literate spelled their names differently as the English language incorporated elements of French, Latin, and other European languages. Many variations of the name Hain have been found, including Haines, Hains, Hain, Haine, Haynes, Hainson and others.

First found in Lincolnshire where they held a family seat from very ancient times, some say well before the Norman Conquest and the arrival of Duke William at Hastings in 1066 A.D.
