HINTE surname

Hi Listers.
                 I apologise that I speak no German in advance.

                 I am attempting to make a connection between the
"Bremen"HINTE families & the "Essen, M�lheim, Oberhausen, Minden" HINTE
families.
                 I would be very grateful for any data on the HINTE surname
from any of these cities & especially from the Oldenburg region.
                All data will be appreciated , as this task is taking me
back to around the mid to late 1700's. any data , both before & after this
period, may be the information needed to make a connection.

          Kindest regards Bill HINTE, Australia.
