Van Mieghem's in the World

This page builds a list of Van Mieghem's in the world and serves as a vehicle for any Van Mieghem to get to know one another. The internet provides us with a great medium and I have received several emails from namesakes inquiring whether we are related or just wanting to introduce each other. If you like to participate, email me and I will add your coordinates and any other information you want to share to this page. (Send me birth dates + place of your family members along the Van Mieghem branch.) Peter (° 1950; currently Marysville, WA) Van Mieghem also maintains a Van Mieghem group on Facebook.

For your information: on April 10, 2006, the Belgian telephone guide listed 476 telephone numbers under the name Van Mieghem, 76 of which in Antwerp. (8 years earlier in 1998, the numbers were 403 and 76.) There are 127 people listed with under the name Van Mieghem in The Netherlands on November 1, 2012. On March 23, 1998, the US Switchboard telephone guide listed 32 telephone numbers under the name Van Mieghem (or Vanmieghem as listed).  This map is very cool: http://nl.geneanet.org/familienamen/MIEGHEM change the slider at the bottom to see how many Van Mieghem’s lived between the year 0 and x (where x = a year up to 2017)).

According to my namesake Jan Van Mieghem, all Van Mieghem's ultimately stem from one family. His family had a geneology that traced Van Mieghem's to the 14th century. Sadly, this information was destroyed during "the war" (WWII). Jan says that he was told that the name "Van Mieghem" originates from a place in Germany called "Milchheim" (Place with milk). In Poland there still exists a town called "Miegchow" which means the same. Etymologically, however, it is much more likely that Van Mieghem's stem from the village Meigemfounded in 900, in East-Flanders, Belgium.  [h was added to distinguish from the French "g"; ei was prounounced as "ie" in West-Flanders.] We hence are truly Flemish :).

Below, I have organized the Van Mieghem's that I am aware of along family trees, starting in Belgium. Default state and family name is Van Mieghem, Belgium. Other conventions: "x" means "married to" and always the wife's maiden name is used, if known; ° means born and + deceased. [complete] means that the rest of that branch is complete, i.e., without any missing persons. (Realize that the date format is day-month-year, except for the US where it goes month-day-year.)

2. Van Mieghem family in Pamel ("'t klein kasteeltje", the little castle. This family had many children.)
• one son fought in the army of Napoleon (early 19th century), his leg was wounded during a battle close to Wittenberg, Poland. He deserted and fled back 2000km to Belgium (by foot, wounded!) and settled near Antwerp to avoid his family in Pamel to get into trouble. (Apparently, there were fewer members of Napoleon's army in Antwerp than near Pamel.] He started a branch of Van Mieghem's around Antwerp. Relatives include:
• Eugeen (° 1875-1930; famous painter). Visit www.vanmieghemmuseum.com
  • There were several members of the "Int Panis" family who were painters in Antwerp during the same period. One actually worked at the arts museum. His son married "Maria Catharina Van Mieghem, °10 maart 1878 Antwerp, + 13 december 1950 Antwerp".
    • On April 3, 2006, I received the following email:
      "Dear Sir,
      Through research about my own name I discoverred a site about the Van Mieghem's in the world, apparantly your initiative.
      In an expose on the famous painter Eugeen Van Mieghem, who's work I know very well (cfr. The Red Star Line initiative in Antwerp, Belgium), I find the following text "There were several of the "Int Panis" family who were painters in Antwerp during the same period. One actually worked at the arts museum. His son married "Maria Catharina Van Mieghem, ° 10 maart 1878 Antwerp - + 13 december 1950 Antwerp".
      I have reason to believe that this son was my grandfather, who, he also, was a painter.
      Thanks already and best regards. Fred Int Panis
