Belgium Early Origins of the Heyder familyThe surname Heyder was first found in Belgium, where the name became noted for its many branches in the region, each house acquiring a status and influence which was envied by the princes of the region. The name was first recorded in East Flanders, a province in Belgium. Within this province the notable towns are Ghent, the capital city, St Nicolas, Alost, Termonde and Oudenarde. In their later history the surname became a power unto themselves and were elevated to the ranks of nobility as they grew into a most influential family. In nearby Germany, another branch of the family dates back to the late 15th century with Sebald Heyden (1499-1561), a German musicologist, educator and hymn writer. He was a member of the Haiden family (also spelt Heyden, Heiden, Hayden, Heyd), a prominent German family of musicians, musical instrument makers, and copper merchants.
