history

The family comes from the county of Diepholz and spread from there to the north and into the Baltic States . The Princely Lüneburg Council Erich Hedemann received the imperial court palace for himself and his descendants with an imperial diploma, issued in Vienna on March 18, 1615 . His younger son Hermann Friedrich von Hedemann, imperial Rittmeister and owner of the Tangstedt estate in Holstein , was born with his (second) wife Anna Elisabeth, née. von Gallen, with an imperial diploma, issued in Regensburg on January 15, 1653, to the knightly imperial nobilityraised. His progeny died out. His older brother, the Brunswick court counselor Ernst Christian von Hedemann auf Herzberg und Dorste († 1694) also achieved the imperial nobility with an imperial diploma, issued in Vienna on March 29, 1689. The diploma was renewed on July 28, 1691. His great-grandson Georg von Hedemann (1729–1782) (born July 18, 1729) came to Schleswig-Holstein and bought the Hemmelmark estate there in 1751 . His eleven sons from his (second) marriage to Davidia, b. von Drieberg (1733–1795) spread the sex across Schleswig-Holstein, Denmark and Hanover in numerous lines.

On February 20, 1729, the Brunswick-Lünebur Guard Lieutenant Heinrich Christoph von Hedemann received confirmation of his membership of the Estonian knighthood at his request .

Admission to the nobility of the Kingdom of Denmark took place with naturalization patents from November 28, 1873 for Otto Vilhelm Hedemann (1838-1916, 1st line) and Major General Johan Christopher Georg Hedemann (1825-1901, 2nd line).

Hedemann-Heespen

In 1776, with the death of the budget councilor Christian Friedrich von Heespen (1717–1776) in Lübeck, the male line of the von Heespen family died out.

Wilhelm Heespen , son of Tilemann Heespen from the Netherlands, was the office director in the counties of Oldenburg and Delmenhorst. He married the daughter of Anton Günther von Velstein, who as a legal scholar, Count of Oldenburg Council and district judge of Ovelgönne , together with his brother Johann in Prague on October 28, 1652 the knightly imperial nobility with the predicate of and for his person the dignity of Palatine and the title had received an Imperial Council, but had died without male heirs. Through this marriage Heespen came into the possession of goods and received with an imperial diploma, issued in Vienna on June 6, 1686, the knightly nobility for imperial and hereditary lands, with the predicate from and to , improvement of coat of arms , authorization to fief and for his Wife confirmation of the nobility of her father, in addition to several other privileges including the privilegium de non usu .

His son Christian Friedrich von Heespen (* April 24, 1717; † May 18, 1776) founded a family fideikommiss and put his godchild Christian Friedrich von Hedemann (1769-1847) as heir. He then added the name and coat of arms of those of Heespen to his own when the inheritance took place. This branch of the family was henceforth called von Hedemann, called von Heespen or Hedemann-Heespen for short . In 1817 he was accepted into the knighthood of Schleswig-Holstein.

coat of arms

The family coat of arms shows golden branches crossed in red, each with a growing, golden clover leaf on a short golden stem at the top, a golden branch with a golden clover leaf below. On the crowned helmet three golden clovers on golden stalks, the outer ones bent outwards. The helmet covers are red and gold.

The coat of arms v. Hedemann-Heespen, awarded in 1776, shows the Hedemannsch coat of arms with the three clover branches in a split shield in front, the von Heespensche coat of arms in the back: quartered with a heart shield divided by red over silver, inside a rafter mistaken for tincture , under which there is a red, six-leafed gold inset Rose is located. Field I of the main shield is divided by gold and gold; half the empire's double-headed eagle , crowned with an open crown and holding a scepter and sword in its claw, leans against the split line . Field IV is the same, only the left half of the imperial eagle, which is holding the imperial orb here, is leaning against the gap. Field II and III show in black a crowned, double-tailed, inward-facing, golden lion holding an eight-pointed silver star in its paws. Two crowned helmets, one of which has three golden clovers growing on long golden stalks, the outer ones bent outwards; the second helmet shows a black double-headed eagle crowned with a golden crown, on the right a sword, on the left an imperial orb. The helmet covers are red and gold and black and gold. A black eagle on the right and a golden lion on the left serve as a shield holder , both defying and crowned.
