The Dellingshausen family (formerly also known as Dellingh (a) usen ) is an Einbecker and Revaler patrician dynasty as well as a Baltic-German aristocratic dynasty residing in Estonia , whose representatives also achieved a certain reputation in Sweden and Russia . Branches of the family still exist today.

history

The family name Dellingshausen is borrowed from the village of Delliehausen (historically Dellinghusen ) in Solling , a wooded low mountain range as part of the Weserbergland in southern northern Germany . The first written mention of the name comes from the Hanseatic city of Einbeck , where Cord Delingehusen as a citizen, ibid. 1385, was named as a guarantor for a pension purchase and on November 6, 1411 reappeared as a witness for a declaration of matrimony alongside three other citizens.

Einbecker main line

In 1530, Cunradt Dellinghusen ("Dr. Konrad Dellinghausen") from Einbeck played a key role as a syndic and envoy of the Free Imperial City of Goslar , when at the Reichstag in Augsburg a compromise between Goslar, who was close to the Protestant estates , and the rival Catholic Prince Heinrich the Younger to Braunschweig-Wolfenbüttel was sought. The negotiations were unsuccessful, and on the way home Cunradt Dellinghusen was presumably assassinated by unknown but probably hired people of the duke and taken to Schöningen to the castle there , where he died soon afterwards .

House of Jobst von Eine and Ursula Dellinghausen in Einbeck

In Einbeck the Dellingshausen (Dellinghusen) belonged to the patrician society of the High Stock Exchange . Since there was connubium within the Einbeck Society of the High Stock Exchange, Jobst von Eine († 1565), named in 1557 as a member of the High Stock Exchange, was married to Ursula Dellinghausen , the daughter of Dietrich Dellinghausen , who was first married to the member of the society, since 1544 Otto von Uslar was married. The von Eine-Dellinghausen couple owned the house at Tiedexer Strasse 8 in Einbeck. The rich decorations on the facade date from his time in 1545.

During the city ​​fire in 1540 , the statutes of the High Stock Exchange were lost. The house of the society, all furniture, equipment and papers of the Junker Exchange were destroyed. Many members of the High Stock Exchange left the city forever. 17 years after the event, the time had come for the elders, the heads of the High Stock Exchange, to start preparations for a new building for the Junkernhaus. The elders of the stock exchange had initially drawn up a list of debts for the past few years. All the late payers of the high stock exchange were listed in a directory. The elders of the High Stock Exchange, namely Sander Koch, Jürgen Pawest, Millies von Eine , Franz von Eine and Wedekind Dellinghausen , met in the town hall in 1557. There lay Wedekind Delling Husen , who for some time had been trading Lord, his statements Report from.

Brun Dellinghusen was councilor and mayor of Einbeck from 1595 to 1616.

Revaler main line

The Dellingshausen family is the second oldest patrician family of Reval still in existence , where it first appears and begins its lineage with the brother of the Blackheads, Hinrik Dellingkhusen († 1525), merchant and senior man of the Great Guild, documented 1479-1511 . The ancestor already owned a complex of houses in the city and was married to a daughter of the Reval councilor Reynold von Wehren (Reinholt von Werne, † 1484).

The history of those von Dellingshausen was closely linked to the turbulent political history of Estonia. The noble lords of Dellingshausen served the respective sovereigns by taking positions in the army and administration.

When the Teutonic Order disintegrated at the beginning of the Livonian War , the knighthood of Estonia and the city of Reval submitted to the Swedish King Erich XIV in 1561. Heinrich Dellingshausen entered into fiefdom around Reval in 1562 . The Syndic of Reval, Konrad Dellingshausen († 1603), negotiated 1569 in Wesenberg as envoy of the council with the envoys of Ivan the Terrible , who urged the submission of the city, but rejected them.

On February 27, 1680, the later Royal Swedish Major General and Supreme Commander of Halland Hans Dellingshausen (* 1640; † 1705) was accepted into the Swedish nobility under No. 958 and introduced into the knight class of the Swedish knighthood . However, this line has already expired with his son, the royal Swedish captain Christer Baltasar Dellingshausen (* 1682; † 1711), who only had one daughter.

In 1710, the knighthood and the city of Reval had their privileges confirmed in their capitulations by Peter the Great , which was only confirmed again in 1721 at the end of the Great Northern War . The Dellingshausen family was of course directly affected in a positive sense.

Manor Tois (Pruuna) in the parish Ampel

The imperial Russian commercial assessor and heir a. a. on Ficht Thomas Dellingshausen (* 1721, † 1797) in Vienna on 8 September in 1785 in the imperial baron lifted been and was in the 1786 oeselschen knighthood enrolled. His son, Baron Friedrich Adolph von Dellingshausen (* 1769, † 1839), heir a. a. auf Tois und Kattentack , was enrolled in the Estonian knighthood on February 3, 1812 . Already on February 19, 1796, the Rigian wholesale merchant Johann Fromhold Dellingshausen had acquired a nobility diploma in Vienna .

In 1862 the Russian approval of the use of the baron title for the entire family took place.

The family produced two chivalric captains. First Baron Nikolai von Dellingshausen , who held this office in 1868/69, followed by his son, Baron Eduard von Dellingshausen-Kattentack , who was the last leader of the Estonian knighthood elected by the state parliament from 1902 until he came to power by the Estonian government on November 14, 1918 resigned from his position as governor of the knights.

coat of arms

The blackheaded Hinrich Dellinkhusen († 1525) had sealed Reval with a house brand in 1508 .

The family coat of arms shows (1608 in Reval, 1616 in Einbeck) a silver ( chess ) tower in blue . On the helmet with a blue-silver bead and also blue-silver covers (1608 in Reval) the tower, later (1690 in Reval) a silver unicorn growing.

The tower's coat of arms was initially turned into a crowned column. In the form of an obelisk , in keeping with the fashion of the Zopfzeit , and hung with trophies , the old family coat of arms, interpreted beyond recognition over the years, is contained in fields 1 and 4 of the Swedish (1680) and baronial arms (1785).

The Swedish coat of arms (1680) is quartered ; 1 and 4 in red on a green shield base covered with two silver diagonally right streams, a silver obelisk with a silver ball on top , hung crosswise with a quiver filled with three feathered silver arrows (diagonally left) and a fallen bare sword (diagonally right); 2 and 3 a black eagle's wing in silver , the Saxons turned to the right. On the helmet with red-silver covers a silver lily between eight (4, 4) red flags , each with a silver star , on green spikes.

The baron's coat of arms (1785) is quartered and covered with a heart shield with a silver lily inside; 1 and 4 as in 1680, but the bare sword is an overturned Turkish saber with gold endings ; 2 and 3 like 1680. Two helmets: on the right one with blue-silver covers like 1680; on the left with red and silver blankets, a growing armored right arm, curved to the left , holding a curved silver rod of Mercury with gold wings and green snakes in his bare fist. Two opposing, red-tongued, green-winged, golden griffins as a shield holder .
