Origins


During the 19th century members of this family tried to prove that they were descendants of the Utrecht noble family. This has later been found impossible to prove.
Their genealogy starts with a merchant in hosiery trade van" target="_blank">Van Zuylen. Later they added 'van" target="_blank">Van Nijevelt' at the time when they had become affluent and accomplished important duties in Rotterdam. In 1848 they added "van" target="_blank">Van De Weyer", because of a familial marriage.
Philip Julius van" target="_blank">van Zuylen van" target="_blank">van Nijevelt, senator, was made comte de l'Empire dd. 17 maart 1811. Several of his brothers were made baron de l'Empire in 1813 (not formally confirmed).
Under the United Kingdom of the Netherlands, several royal decrees, between 1815–1822, confirmed the noble status of the family. In 1822 the chief of the family was made a count and all other members baron and baroness.
