Adolph Ernst von Linsingen

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Adolph Ernst von Linsingen , since 1783 Baron von Linsingen (born February 10, 1723 ; † May 26, 1784 in Agnesdorf ) was a royal Prussian colonel sergeant of the infantry and later a real chamberlain to the Elector of Mainz , a senior of the von Linsingen family and a manor owner.

Life

He came from the Eichsfeld line of the noble family von Linsingen and was the second eldest son of the manor owner and permanent zerbstischen secret councilor Dietrich Ernst Heinrich von Linsingen, who died in 1763 .

In 1774 he wrote the genealogy of the ancient knightly and monastery-like von Linsingen family , which appeared in print in the Electoral Mainz city of Erfurt and still forms the most important basis for family research of this noble family today.

Together with his three younger brothers, he met on June 29, 1781 in Mönchhof in Saxony-Gotha an inheritance comparison of the property in the Goldenen Aue and Eichsfeld owned by the von Linsingen family .

On December 4, 1783, he and his younger brother August Christian Wilhelm von Linsingen auf Tilleda , a Saxon-Gotha lieutenant colonel in Dutch service, were raised to the baron status of the Holy Roman Empire of the German Nation.

Two days after his death, he was solemnly buried on May 28, 1784 in the Questenberg church. He left no offspring.
