Uhden , also written Uhde , Uden , Ude and Latinized Udenius , is the name of a family.

Origin of name

The name Uden or Ude for short, later also Uhden and Uhde, is one of the patronymic family names (father's first name). It developed from the popular short form of the name Udo by linguistic abbreviation of its Latin genitive "filius Udonis" for son of Udo or Udo's son in 1283 to "Udonis", subsequent grinding to Uden, so in 1308 with "meyster Uden" from Halle and 1311 in Berlin "Consul Henricus Uden" and shorten to Ude 1410 with "Ciriacus Ude ... radmanne to Gardelege".

family

The family treated here originally comes from Gardelegen in the Altmark, where, among others, Cyriacus and Henning Uden appear in 1393 , the brothers Niclas and Cyriacus in 1419 and Mayor Udo Udonis in 1493. In 1586 the mayor Anton Uhdes († 1566) widow, Elisabeth Uhde née Hackelbusch from Salzwedel, built a splendid epitaph in the Marienkirche between the high pulpit and the councilor's pews. In Egeln near Magdeburg the family is documented in 1552 with the princely Magdeburg court counselor Bartholomäus Ude († 1587). The secured family line begins with Christian Röttger Heinrich Uhde , a merchant in Egeln, and Dorothea Rulmann , who was married there on June 6, 1608 . The descendants of his son Peter Uhde (1623–1684), Egelner merchant, arable citizen and councilor, bequeathed his entire fortune in 1750, mayor there himself and without children, with the proviso that it is “properly administered” and from the proceeds were and real poor of my families in infinitum, namely their sons fifteen to twenty Reichsthalers to learn a profession, in the same way that daughters were paid every thirty Reichsthaler cash for their marriage, even to whom pious widows and orphans should be given something for their most necessary something ”.

In 1937 three widows received a scholarship from the family foundation, the administration of which was in the hands of the Egeln magistrate from the beginning of the foundation. The unrecognized boards attached to the foundation files contained 1000 heads and were by no means complete, as reported by the National Socialist racial hygienist Hans Julius Duncker , who increased the number to 3,600 by his own research by 1940 and estimated the total number to 6,000 with the number of unreported cases .

The brother of the above Peter Uhden emigrated to Moravia after the Thirty Years War and became the progenitor of the Moravian branch of the family.
