Van de Sande Bakhuyzen


Van de Sande Bakhuyzen is a Dutch family with a number of notable members. The family name originated in The Hague with Hendrik van de Sande Bakhuyzen, son of the prominent publisher Gerrit Bakhuysen and Jacoba van de Sande. In 1819, Hendrik obtained a legal permission by royal decree to add his late mother's surname to his own, before marrying Sophia Wilhelmine Kiehl in 1825. "Bakhuyzen" can also be spelled "Bakhuijzen" and, especially before 1811, can also be found written as "Backhuijsen", "Backhuysen", "Bakhuijsen", and "Bakhuizen".
In 1994, the family was included in the genealogical reference book Nederland's Patriciaat.
