Name Meaning
Dutch: variant of Wiltsee, possibly a nickname meaning ‘wild sea’, given to a child born at sea, or an altered form of Luxembourgish Wiltz . The surname Wiltse(e) is not found in the Netherlands.
History: Hendrick Martenszen Wiltse or, in some early records, Wiltsee (c. 1623–1712) lived in Wiltwyck, New Amsterdam in New Netherland (now New York City, NY), by 1660, the time of his marriage. At that time his surname (nickname) was Van Coppenhagen, but the capital of Denmark is not likely to be the place of his origin. He is said to have been born aboard a ship enroute to NY. Philippe Maton de Wiltz from Luxembourg, who died 1632 in NY, has been identified by some as his father.
