The Seidelin family is a Danish family descending from bailiff and councilman in Helsingør Michel Seidel (died 1616). He was originally from Werder in Pomerania or East Prussia and purchased a house in the city in 1589. Nothing else is known about his background. The name Seidelin was passed on through his daughters who in accordance with German tradition added the suffix -in to their father's name.[1]
Noble family
Post Master-General Hans Seidelin (1665-1740), a great grandson of Michel Seidel, was ennobled in 1731.
His daughter, Sophie Seidelin (1693-1741) married royal confessionarius Iver Brinck (1719-1728). Their son, Hans Didrik Brinck-Seidelin (1720-1778), owner of Stamhuset Hagested, was ennobled under the name Brinck-Seidelin in 1752.

Post Master-General Hans Seidelin purchased Hagestedgård at Holbæk in 1730 and Holbæk Ladegård in 1732. Both estates were after his death passed on to first his son Hans Hansen Seideling and then his grandson Hans Didrik de Brinck-Seidelin.[2] In 1752, Hans Diderik de Brinck-Seidelin also purchased Eriksholm. He sold Hagestedgård in 1769. His son Hans de Brinck-Seidelin sold Holbæk Ladegård in 1809 and Eriksholm in 1824.
