The Spinder family name surfaces for the first time in the summary op the Kollum rebellion of 1797. The Kollum rebellion of 1797 under leadership of Jan Binnes and Salomon Levy is widely known in North-Eastern Friesland. In the church of Oudwoude a commemorative stone is placed honouring Jan Binnes, who rebelled against the oppression of the Bataafse Republiek, the French puppetstate regime, and was hanged for that in Leeuwarden. The names of Pyter Jans and Tjeerd Jans Spinder were mentioned in the register.
