The Dalwigk zu Lichtenfels also included the Silesian barons of Dalwig, who can be traced back to the Prussian general Georg Ludwig von Dalwig . They stood outside of the feudal association because Georg Ludwig was an illegitimate son of Lieutenant General Rabe Ludwig von Dalwigk , but received Prussian recognition for the use of the title of baron through various rescripts of the Prussian heraldry . The Silesian Dalwigs are extinct in the male line.

Another branch of the family went to Unterbach , whose area at that time now belongs to Düsseldorf and Erkrath . There he owned the water castle Haus Unterbach from 1708 to 1807 .
