history

Christina Renata Zorn von Plobsheim , née Bartsch von Demuth (1692–1716)

The Bartsch family is named (like that of Ludwig with the raven coat of arms ) after the estate of Demuth in the former Braunsberg district .

The secured, continuous core series begins with the long-distance merchant and shipowner in Danzig Peter Bartsch (1507–1590). Jakob Bartsch was mayor of Braunsberg , acquired Krusty and bought in 1609 the manor Basien the last male descendants of those of BaySEN which as already Jan Bażyński the same sitting Eichhorn in trunk arms are led and therefore considered a related family. In Pomerania , the Bartsch family Demuth had the goods in the 17th century Smasin , Skrzesiewo , Rheinfeld and Richthof and stood with Michael and Johann Bartsch in Gdansk and Puck each juror . When the Silesian princess Sibylle Margarethe von Brieg , wife of the castellan and voivode Count Gerhard Dönhoff , died in 1657 and the funeral service took place in the Marienkirche in Danzig , Edwart Bartsch von der Humuth led the funeral procession as marshal on Reinfeld and Kriesau . Johann Gerhard Bartsch von der Demuth was councilor in Danzig and in 1697 paid homage to the new Polish king, the Saxon Elector Augustus the Strong , at his solemn entry. The family still owned Chwarsznau in Pommerellen until 1711 and Stangenberg in 1795 . Nathanael († after 1616), grandson of Peter mentioned above and son of the aforementioned Michael, already bore the name Bartsch von Demuth. Frederick's daughter Ursula Bartsch, as the heir's daughter, finally passed the Demuth estate to her husband Georg von Knobelsdorf . Christina Renata Bartsch Demuth (1692-1716) was the from Alsace to Plobsheim originating wealthy family Friedrich August wrath of Plobsheim Married (1664 to 1745). With him she had a son of the same name († 1789). Her husband was a knight of the Order of St. John and chamberlain to the Elector of Saxony , as well as a younger brother of the Saxon major general Wolf Christoph Zorn von Plobsheim (1655–1621). The Parisian engraver François Chereau made a portrait in memory of Christina Renata, who died at the age of 28.

Further estates existed at Achthuben , Arnstein and Lichtenfeld in the Eylau district , and until 1769 also at Molditten in the Rößel district .

The family is said to have died out at the beginning of the 19th century. However, there was still Leonia Maria Bartsch de Demuth (1860–1938), born in Schönborn , who married Karol Kazimierz Zygmunt Dobrzański (1852–1886, Sas coat of arms ) in 1880 and left a son with him.
