INTRODUCTION
The Sassienie Worldwide Family Website is themed on family history and the introduction of extended relatives past and present to Sassienie family members worldwide - which extends to the parents of spouses of hereditary family individuals of all branches.
There are several different versions of the family surname in this family tree. The names Sasine, Sasiene, Sasienie, sass, Sassiene, Sassieni, & Sassienie are variants of the original surname Sasieni within our family group. The tree with combined Koekoek, de Wolf, Fresco and Sasieni ancestors includes fourteen generations (2015) of family members originating from Venice - Italy and the Kingdom of Galicia in central Europe.
Sasieni family ancestors were Ashkenazi Jews and their origins have been traced to the early 1600s in Venice - Italy and Lemberg, which during the period was the capital of Galicia in Poland. History suggests that it is possible the Galicia branch had fled into the Saxony regions of Germany from Russia between 1223AD and 1240AD during the thirteenth century Mongol invasions of the Russian Principalities and later due to political and religious strives in Germany at various periods during the middle ages began residing in Lemberg sometime before the seventeenth century.
During the mid seventeenth century the Venetian and Galician family ancestors had immigrated to Amsterdam in Holland. They were known by the assumed surname of de Wolf, later to include the Sasieni families with close associations to the Fresco families.

The First Sasieni
The majority of European Jewish families did not use surnames until it became obligatory during periods according to the countries in which they lived, but most commonly at the beginning of the nineteenth century. In some European countries Jews were imposed to acquire family names as a preceding requirement for establishing citizenship status under the laws.
When acquiring family surnames became mandatory, those who already had existing assumed ancestral family names usually continued the same naming traditions (sometimes with variations) from generations to generations. This official using of surnames was especially prevalent within the Sephardic communities, however, as an indication of disapproval some families would assume any types of surnames, sometimes pertaining to an animal, an occupation or the name of a town merely as a formality rather than having intentions of continuing the surname throughout the family lineage.
Prior to the family ancestors immigration to Holland, their children assumed many different surnames and the direct ancestor of all Sasieni/Sassienie family members adopted the surname of de Wolf, literal meaning, a wolf or the wolf, which became a common surname in Germany and in central Europe, although they still mainly only used their first given names and the first names of their fathers as middle or last names.
The formal using of surnames became mandatory in Holland under Napoleonic Law after 1811. The mutual ancestor of all Sasieni family members was Wolf Jacob, born 1796, son of Jacob Salomon de Wolf, who later took advantage of this law to establish himself and family a preferred surname, other siblings assumed different surnames. Wolf Jacob become officially known as, Wolf Jacob Sasieni or Wolf de Jacob Sasieni. Wolf – his father’s last name, Jacob – his father’s first name and the surname Sasieni – probable meaning in Dutch, Polish, and Jewish (eastern Ashkenazic): ethnic and regional name from Middle Dutch Sasse, Polish Sas meaning Saxon or Saxony. The surname of Sasieni is probably a deviation meaning, coming from the regions of Saxony – Sasieni – Saxony, from whence they originated.
The first Sasieni on record was: Wolf Jacob Sasieni (1796 – 1869), born in
Amsterdam, Holland. He had eight children, three died in early childhood and
