Family Name
History Sommeling
The Dutch Family Name Sommeling is Classified as being of personal name
origin.
As in the case of many family names, this surname derives its origins
from the given name of one of the parents of its initial bearer.
Where the name is derived from the father’s first name it is referred to
as being patronymic in origin and when it is taken from the personal
name of the mother it is matronymic in origin.
With regard to Sommeling, the appellation developed from “Sommel”, a pet
form of the ald gamanic personal name “Sombach”. Whith was in turn
derived from the gothic word “sunja”, denoting truth, or from the old
high German “sonna”, signifying the sun.
The “-ing”element in the Family Name Sommeling is an ancient Germanic
possessive suffix which in surname usually indicates a Fillial
relationship.
Thus the orginal dearer of the surname Sommeling would have been the
“sun of Sommel”, Variants of the surname Sommeling include Sommel and
Sommels.
One of theearliest references to this name is a record of one Piere
Sommeling, son of Clement Sommeling and Jenne Pirot, who was born on
1630 in Tourcongie.
Piere Sommeling married with Susanne Plantfefe in Leiden on 21 oktober
1650
However, research is of course nogoing and this name may have been
documented even earlier than the date indicated ahove.
Early records for both Belgium and Holland show categorically that the
use of hereditary fixed family names was well-established withen the
metropolitan areas of both countries by the thirteenth century.
It is only became estsblieshed as recently as the nineteenth century.

Tourcoing is a town in the North of France, at the North-East of
Lille (Rijsel). In the neighbourhood are towns like Roubaix, Bondues
and Mouvaux, which you can find multiple in the Leidse archives.
Tourcoing, which is mostly spelled like Toerkonje, is a part of an
area which is since 1713 belonging to France. Here was a big textile
industry, mostly directed on the wool comb, which probably is the
cause of the migration to Leiden.
It’s familiar that between 1580 and 1622 no less than 150,000
persons are migrated to the North. A part of it were people which
are protestant who feel themselves saver in the north, another part
came to the north because of social-economic reasons. From Lille and
neighbourhood came 4000 persons; from Tourcoing 800. Mostly Leiden
was very migrating. This town had tried to bring the people who
worked in the textile industry, came to the town.
