The Van Tets name comes from German village of Tetz close to Linnich an de Ruhr. The ancestor of the Dutch branch is Wilhelmus Van Tetz (1649-1690) who was a surgeon in Amsterdam. Both his son, grand son and great-grandson were active overseas, in the East Indies as well as in West Africa. Arnoldus Adrianus Von Tetz (1738-1792) sailed to Batavia in 1755, becoming senior merchant and delegate of native afairs. He left Batavia in 1769. Back in Holand he became burgomaster in Dordrecht. This armorial service must have been ordered soon after his second marriage in 1775 to Wilhemina Jacoba Hartingh (1750-1813).
