Dewall , also van de Wall or von de Wall , is the name of a Dutch - Westphalian noble family .

history

The patrician family first appears in a document in 1429 with Leonhard von de Wall (or, according to older literature, Theod. = Theodericus / Diederik van de Wall ), Burgrave of Nijmegen . Since Zedlitz, following this dignity, only the most respected families of the Geldern knighthood and in particular the Ryks van Nijmegen were enfeoffed , the age of the sex could be considered much higher. When the Spanish-Dutch struggles for religion and freedom broke out , the gender declared itself in favor of the new religious doctrine and the House of Orange . Driven from their possessions in the wake of the various vicissitudes of the war, the family took refuge in Holland . From there a branch later turned to the Duchy of Cleves . The documented uninterrupted line of trunks begins with the timber merchant Hendrik von de Wall (approx. 1580–1650), who married in 1610 in Wesel . On December 2, 1802, Emperor Franz II ennobled the heir to Schmidthausen near Kleve, Kasimir van de Wall (1773–1826), to the imperial nobility (or the nobility was renewed and he was reassigned to the German imperial nobility), connected with the Permission to change the family name to von Dewall and the lion coat of arms. On June 9, 1835, the Westphalian branch, the descendants of Casimir von Dewall ( Casimir Dewall ; 1773–1826), received the Prussian nobility recognition via ministerial rescript . A sex association was established on October 1, 1909.

In the Netherlands, the council of Dordrecht , Pieter Hendrik van de Wall van Puttershoek (1795-1853) was raised to the Dutch nobility by royal decree of December 6, 1827 . He was married to jonkvrouw Maria Jacoba Repelaer (1802–1862). However, since he died without heirs, the noble family he founded died out. However, his nephew, son of his brother-in-law Paulus Repelaer (1810–1871), Pieter Hendrik Repelaer (1854–1920), heir to Puttershoek , who had been a member of the Dutch nobility since 1816, obtained a change of name from van de Wall Repelaer in 1856 . This family continues like the patrician van de Wall.
