Garlich Duren

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Garlich Duren (* around 1475, † 1532 ) was a Frisian chief , territorial lord and temporarily member of the Regency Council of the Jever rule .

origin

The family settled in what was then Rüstringen and Östringen . The father came from Tengshausen (also "Taddinghusen", "Taingshusen") in Wangerland . At his later place of residence Butjadingen he came into conflict with the authorities and had to leave it. Before 1468 he took refuge in the Jever rulership with Chief Tanno Duren , great-grandson of Chief Edo Wiemken , proved himself and finally married into his family. Since then he has been allowed to call himself "Duren (also: Düren, Diuren) von Tengshausen".

Ascent

Edo Wiemken the Younger (1468–1511), son of Tanno Düren, was his successor as chief of the Jever rule and, in the event of his death before his children came of age, the government of the rule should be replaced by “five of the noblest and most powerful chiefs of the country ”should be carried out as a reign. One of the regents named by Edo Wiemken was Garlich Duren, who was related by marriage to him:

“Dir or Dür is an old Frisian (sic) name; and one of the guardians of our Junker Christoph and his siblings carried the name: Garlich Düren or Diren. "

So Garlich Duren rose when Edo Wiemken d. J. died in 1511 as co-regent of the Jever rule and thus determined the internal politics of the Jever rule. In 1514 Garlich Duren was involved in an agreement that strengthened the position of the opponent Count Edzard von Ostfriesland . From 1517 to 1520 Garlich was also Drost von Wittmund .

Failure and death

As the only male descendant of Edo Wiemke the Elder J., Junker Christopher, died prematurely in 1517, Garlich Duren was involved as a witness in the attempt of Count Edzard von Ostfriesland to extend his sphere of influence to the Jeverland. A marriage contract was negotiated under military pressure "in order to have a permanent calm, peace, unity and confidentiality between East Frisia and Jeverland in the future". According to this, one of Edzard's sons, in the event of whose untimely death he himself, was to marry one of Jever's heirs:

"October 26th. came this comparison at the end, and helped the same Garlich Diuren, Omme zu Middoch, Rickleff to Roffbausen, Rickleff to Vischhausen, Ubbe Schreiber, Carsten Wandscherrr, Mayor of Jever, and Johann Lammers carry out. "

The East Frisian side did not keep the marriage contract but occupied the Jever rule in 1527; Garlich Duren and the other co-regents submitted to the East Frisian counts. Maria von Jever, on the other hand, now the sole heir and of legal age for years, increasingly circumvented the regents by acting independently. When in 1532 she raised claims to lands that had previously been under her rulers as chiefs, an open conflict broke out between them and Maria. Garlich Duren and his son Dirk Garlichs tried together with the other regents to preserve their previous territorial rights by taking military action against Maria: In 1532 Garlich Duren, his son Dirk and Ubbe von Knyphausen with their mercenaries Jever besieged the center of power and the place of refuge from Maria. The attempt failed and Garlich Duren fell during the siege. Maria von Jever ruled the Jeverland in the following period with the support of Emperor Charles V. As the incontestable regent, in 1535 she had the goods of Garlich Duren confiscated.

progeny

As was common in this region until the 17th century due to the change of patronymic name , the children of Garlich Duren had a surname corresponding to their father's first name, supplemented by an "s", meaning Garlichs . The documented descendants include Diedrich Garlichs , August Garlichs , Bernhard Garlichs , Hermann Garlichs , Rudolf Garlichs , Ariane Garlichs , Dietrich Garlichs and Christoph D. Garlichs .
