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

The distinguished German surname Sender is of two possible origins. Firstly, the name may be derived from the personal name "Sanders," which is a diminutive of the popular Greek personal name "Alexander," meaning "protector." In this case, the surname would mean "son of Sanders." Alternatively, the name may be derived from the place name "Sand," the name of several towns in Germany. In this instance, the name would have been originally borne by someone hailing from one of these towns.
