Lindeen History, Family Crest & Coats of ArmsEarly Origins of the Lindeen familyThe surname Lindeen was first found in Cambridgeshire where Gilbert de Lindona was listed in the Domesday Book of 1086. 1 Years later, Simon de Lindon was listed in the Assize Rolls for Lincolnshire in 1202 and later again, Richard de Lyndone was found in the Subsidy Rolls for Leicestershire in 1327.
