Anrep (noble family)
Anrep is the name of a Baltic German aristocratic family that originally came from Westphalia and later spread to the rulership of Sweden , Poland , Denmark and Russia .
history
The family probably comes from Anreppen , a district of Delbrück in North Rhine-Westphalia since 1975 , where there were several prehistoric noble families of the same name, but no connection has been documented to any of them. The place still has a coat of arms identical to the ancestral coat of arms of the Anrep.
In Livonia , the family appeared for the first time in a document from 1470–1501 with Goswin Anrep , who held a number of fiefs in Helmetschen from the German Order . The line of stem of the sex begins with him .
In 1635, the Swedish lieutenant Gustaf Anrep was given the Swedish nobility naturalization and was introduced to the nobility class of the Swedish knighthood .
The Livonian lines were registered with the Livonian knighthood in 1742 , Friedrich Wilhelm von Anrep because of his estate Tecknal in 1745 with the Estonian knighthood .
1853, the Russian was Lieutenant General and Adjutant of the Emperor Josef Karl von Anrep in the Russian count conditions raised . Emperor Nicholas I approved a coats of arms and name association with that of his wife, Countess Cäcilie Philippine von Elmpt († 1892), the last of her sex. The Counts Anrep-Elmpt ( Russian Анреп-Эльмпт ) took over the Elmpt's successor in Burgau , but already died out in the male line in 1888 in the next generation. The daughter Cäcilie von Anrep-Elmpt (* 1847) married Count Keyserlingk . Their daughter Margarete Countess von Keyserlingk (* 1876) became Burgau's heir.
