Hesselink (Hesseling, Hesselingk) is a Dutch Mennonite family. A branch of this family lived in the city of Groningen where they usually belonged to the (Groningen) Old Flemish Mennonite congregation: Willem Jacobsz Hesselink (died 1720) was a preacher of this congregation 1694-1720, as was his son Jacob Willemsz Hesselingk (died 1760) 1725-ca. 1754; Willem Arendsz Hesselink (1707-1768) also served this church as a preacher 1753-1754, while many members of this family served as deacons, not only of the Old Flemish congregation, but also after this congregation had merged in 1809 with the Waterlander-Flemish congregation; e.g., Albert Hesseling, deacon 1782-1802, and Jan Hesselink 1826-1830. Jacob Derks Hesselink (died 1878) bequeathed a considerable amount of money to the congregation to build an old people's home, Hesselink-stichting.
From this Groningen branch also descended Gerrit Hesselink (1752-1811), Mennonite minister and professor. Other ministers bearing this name were Wybo Hesseling, born at Groningen, died 1778 at Leiden, who studied at the Amsterdam Mennonite Seminary 1762-1767 and served the congregation of Leiden 1768-1777. Matthijs Hesselink, born at Groningen, was educated at the Seminary 1773-1777 and served as minister at Huizen 1777-1788, Emmerich 1788-1796, Zutphen 1796-1802, Westzaandam "Oude Huys" 1802-1805. In 1805 he resigned. In 1809 he made a plan to found a fund for pensioning the widows of Mennonite preachers.
Whether Pieter Andriesz Hesseling (1588-1645), preacher of the Waterlander congregation of Amsterdam, belonged to the same family, could not be ascertained.
