Coat of arms Friderich von Fridstein 1630

The family of the Imperial Knights Friderich von Fridstein , which died out around 1730 in the male line, were an Austrian noble family.

history

Jakob Friderich († August 30, 1663 in Vienna ), at that time post office administrator there, received imperial nobility on August 30, 1630 in Regensburg . Furthermore, Jakob Friderich received on May 9, 1653 in Regensburg as the imperial post office administrator the confirmation of the nobility conferred on him in 1630 as a knightly nobility with improvement of coat of arms and freedom from red wax, exemptio ab oneribus (exemption from duties and taxes), the title of an imperial court servant and the predicate " von Fridstein ”.

The older of his two sons, Balthasar, became a religious priest in Heiligenkreuz ; the younger, Johann Jakob (born October 22, 1647 in Vienna; † 1696 ibid), married Maria Polixena Grabner (also: Graber, born November 24, 1648 in Vienna, St. Stephan) and had seven children with her between 1668 and 1675, of whom only Christoph Ferdinand (born December 29, 1671 in Vienna, St. Stephan) and Marianne Therese (born March 28, 1673 in Vienna, St. Stephan, † 6 November 1760 in Vienna) grew up. The latter married Johann Siegmund Hayek on July 29, 1696 (Vienna, Schotten) . The former (who only called himself Ferdinand) was chancellor at the imperial principal commissioner's office in Regensburg and may have died in the late 1720s without descendants.

Johann Jakob Friderich von Fridstein seems to have transferred the coat of arms to his son-in-law via facti , without prior knowledge of the nobility authorities. In fact, the coat of arms of the von Waldstätten family is largely identical to that of Fridrich von Fridstein. The only differences are in fields 3 and 5 (three oak trees = forest = Hayek).
