Life

Origin and family

Franz Johann von Vittinghoff called Schell came from the Westphalian noble family von Vittinghoff . The rungs of the family held high offices in church, military and administration. From 1456 until the secularization in 1803 , the barons of Vittinghoff put the hereditary droids in the Essen monastery . Franz Johann was the son of Bernhard Melchior von Vittinghoff called Schell (1632–1691) and his wife Elisabeth Margaretha Anna von Ossenbrock (1638–1681). The children of his brother Arnold Johann all held a spiritual position: Anna Theodora Helena and Maria Adolphina were canons in Nottuln Abbey , Friedrich Ignaz Konstantin and Hermann Arnold were canons.

Act

After waiving his uncle Wilhelm Franz Franz Johann was born on May 20, 1683 for the Dompräbende nominated. The revolt to the families Vittinghoff-Schell, Ossenbrock, auf dem Berge and Raesfeld took place on June 10th. He was then introduced to his office as Canon . On March 9, 1684 he asked the cathedral chapter for approval to carry out a military order. Franz Johann had received a company on horseback from the sovereign as commander. The cathedral chapter promised to keep him present if he went to war against the Turks, but not in other countries. Since the chapter could not guarantee that Franz Johann would be kept in the same position in the event of a peace agreement, he renounced military service and thanked the elector for the grace he had shown. On July 24, 1697, he became an assessor in the Paderborn cathedral winery . In 1699 he received an option to the archdeaconate city wages after the cathedral scholaster Droste had waived. The election to the cathedral waiter fell on July 24, 1699. On April 16, 1716 he appointed his nephew Friedrich Ignaz as executor. A little later, on December 12, 1716, he died.
