Heenvliet (Zuid-Holland, Netherlands)Heenvliet, a village on the island of Voorne-Putten, in the Dutch province of South Holland. In the 17th century there was a small Mennonite congregation at Heenvliet, which was closely connected with the Mennonites in the neighboring villages of Geervliet and Spijkenis. It belonged to the Flemish branch. In 1733-1734 it contributed to the needs of the Prussian Mennonites, but soon after it must have died out. BibliographyHoop Scheffer, Jacob Gijsbert de.
