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

The German state of Saxony, where the distinguished surname Hinze arose, is renowned for both its beauty, industry, and economic power. However, in the medieval era, Germany was fragmented and inhabited by numerous Barbarian tribes, who fought amongst themselves for control of the land. The ancient dukedom of Saxony derived its name from the Germanic tribe name the Saxons who inhabited the territory after the fall of the Roman Empire. The name Hinze originates as a short form of the personal name Heinrich.
