HeissFN: Herr Heiss was said by the Koehler FSL to be fromUC Aschaffenburg, and his frau’s maiden name was given as Hubert (no origin given).    The family name was spelled Geiss in 1798 (Mai1798:Mv1316).

HeissFN: said by the Mueller FSL to be fromUC Reinheim, Darmstadt.  The Buedingen ML says this Geist man fromUC Reppeshain married a Schmidt woman fromUC Kirtorf in 1766; Stumpp says he was fromUC Rebgeshain near Lauterbach, Hessen and she was fromUC Kirtorf near Alsfeld.

Heit?FN: said by the Dreispitz FSL to be fromUC Kritz?, Dadriof?.  In 1798 the family name was spelled Heidt (Mai1798:Dr09). A Luebeck baptismal record says a son of this Heidt man and his Huber wife was baptised in 1765 (Mai&Marquardt#1342).

Hekeberkhental/Heckenbergheim/EkebergenGL, Hanau County: an unidentified place, said by the Walter FSL to be homeUC to Braun, Steinmetz and Thiel families.  Heckenbergheim might mean something like “At the rear of Bergheim”?  The Walter Resource Group’s best guess is that this relates to the Bergheim that is some 16 miles SSE of Kassel, Hessen in the Fulda River valley.  As of now I doubt that Hanau owned any lands this far north.
