The genealogy of this ancient family, whose name Harbuval derives from the original estate of Harbuval in the county of Artois, began with John I of Harbuval, who married a Countess de la Laine in 1112 and reproduced the family. The descendants of the same were mostly in royal Spanish military service, and in the ninth member came from him Johann Baptist von Harbuval, later Baron von Chamaré, who was also in royal Spanish military service. In 1555, when the Tauris fortress was besieged (this is probably Tabriz in today's Azerbaijan ), he seized a flag, penetrated the breach in a shamrocked (actually: battered, worn; here: clothes decorated with colorful stripes and materials and striped on the inside) the fortress, climbed its wall and planted the flag on it, whereupon the fortress was soon taken, as the commanding general had called out that one should hurry after the shamrocked dress which Johann Baptist wore. From the description of this dress it was given the nickname Chamaré . He married a baroness von du Bois in 1527, and his son Johann († August 20, 1648), who ended his life as a Spanish lieutenant colonel in the Battle of Lens in Artois, previously continued the sex.

Johann's grandson, Leonhard († 1684), royal Spanish colonel , married Klara Katharina Maria, a daughter of Count Johann T'Serclaes von Tilly , in 1645 and fell during the siege of Luxembourg . The same son, Johann Baptist († October 11, 1701 in Soncino ), entered military service in 1675, married Johanna Rosina von Fritsch on Dobigost in 1699 and died as an imperial lieutenant colonel right at the beginning of the War of the Spanish Succession in the battle of Soncino.

Johann Baptist's son Johann Ludwig (* July 12, 1701, † April 28, 1765) was born by Emperor Charles VI on October 2, 1727 in the baron and by Archduchess Maria Theresa in her capacity as Queen of Bohemia on September 4, 1751 in the count status. In 1745 he bought the Pottenstein estate from Count Anton Zaruba von Hustířan . He married three times: with Josefine Charlotte Freiin von Seydlitz , then with Maria Augusta Countess von Kalckreuth and finally on February 12, 1737 with Anna Barbara Freiin von Sannig († February 26, 1773). The count died as the Imperial and Royal Privy Councilor and Vice President of the Commercial Consess in the Kingdom of Bohemia , leaving behind two sons who formed two branches.

Johann Sigismund from the first marriage founded the Styrian line. He was a kk chamberlain and received indigenous status in Hungary on September 14, 1777 and married Johanna Countess Keglevich de Buzin in 1762 , who brought the Reka rule into the marriage. The couple had three sons:

  • Johann Nepomuk Joseph, (* May 17, 1765 - December 23, 1816) married to Jana Keglevich de Buzin, then to Barbara Freiin Vecsey de Haynacskö,
  • Johann Anton (* October 7, 1766; † June 25, 1798), who died early as a lieutenant in the Duke of Württemberg's Dragoon Regiment in fulfillment of his service obligations and
  • Johann Alois (born June 12, 1772), kk officer, married to Julie Hofer (born May 12, 1783) on May 20, 1809.

The head of the Styrian line was then Johann Nepomuk Joseph (* August 8, 1793, † November 21, 1857). He was the ruler of Süssenheim in Styria and Reka, Szvedruscha and Ternovecz in Croatia , kk chamberlain and major general (January 16, 1849), chamberlain to Archduchess Elisabeth, widow of Archduke Ferdinand Karl Victor d'Este . He married Countess Katharina von Erdödy on April 2, 1827 (born September 15, 1802, † 1838).

Johann Anton (born November 15, 1737; † February 17, 1808) from the third marriage founded the Bohemian line. He was a kk chamberlain and married on February 28, 1764 in his first marriage with Johanna Maria Countess von Waldstein (* July 4, 1722 - March 26, 1792), the second on October 2, 1792 with Marie Anna Freiin Dobrženský von Dobrženitz ( * August 5, 1763 in Vienna ; † December 16, 1826 in Prague ).

The head of the Bohemian line later became his grandson Johann Ludwig (born August 8, 1798). He was kk chamberlain, lord of the lordship Neuschloss (Bohemia) , married on April 25, 1826 to Maria Hedwig Countess von Schaffgotsch (born November 1, 1805 in Breslau ; † June 30, 1875 in Neuschloss). From this marriage came five sons: Johann Ludwig (* July 5, 1828; † 1846), Johann Friedrich (* December 3, 1829 in Neuschloss; † March 5, 1916 in Vienna), Imperial and Royal Officer, the parliamentarian of the Center Party Johann Anton ( 1834–1895), Johann Felix (born March 18, 1836 in Neuschloss; † June 21, 1906 in Semmering ) and Johann Alfred (born June 22, 1837 in Neuschloss; † December 20, 1913 in Salzburg ) married to Amalie Johanna Countess von Strasoldo (November 3, 1848 in Peuma; † September 23, 1926 in Salzburg). The brother of Count Johann Ludwig was Count Johann Anton (born April 6, 1804 in Pottenstein; † August 31, 1849 ibid), lord of the allodial goods Pottenstein, Langen-Chotta and Slowan. He married Anna Countess von Woracziczky von Pabienitz on September 5, 1829 (* March 5, 1814).

With the death of Johann Ludwig (born June 6, 1887 in Salzburg; † May 12, 1972 in Maria-Anzbach ), the grandson of Johann Alfred and Countess Amalie Strasoldo, the male line of the Counts of Harbuval and Chamaré became extinct.
