Angelach (noble family)
The Lords of Angelach , also Angeloch, Angloch, Anglach or Andelachen, were originally located in Waldangelloch , belonged to the ministerial nobility and were first mentioned in 1255.
history
A "widow of a Sigward von Andelachen" mentioned in 1198 and her children are said to have belonged to this family. With Ludwig (1255), Konrad I. (1278) and Konrad II. (1312-1316) other mentions were made. In 1319, a "Diederich von Angelache" can be clearly identified in documents with seals.
The possessions included Gauangelloch with the moated castle Gauangelloch in the hands of Angellach-Obrigheim until about 1370 , from 1417 owned by Dieter VI. from Angelach-Angelach and his descendants. Waldangelloch with the Waldangelloch castle was a fief of the von Angelach-Angelach from 1363 at the latest, and between 1433 and 1441 the von Angelach-Braubach family. Then the von Angelach-Angelach appeared again. From 1448 to 1560, Streichenberg Castle was owned by von Angelach-Angelach. From 1401 to 1552 a share of the fruit tithe in Mingolsheim for the Angelach-Angelach is proven. The family was a member of the knight canton of Odenwald , which belonged to the Franconian knight circle .
In the second half of the 16th century, 13 male persons were mentioned, but in quick succession, probably because of the difficult economic circumstances of the family, many of them joined fighting clerical knights, the Order of Malta and the Teutonic Order . In 1608 the family died out in the male line with Hans Philipp (1596–1608).
In Switzerland, a branch split off in the 16th century which goes back to an illegitimate but recognized son of the Maltese Grand Prior Bernhard IV . Its descendants are currently proven until the middle of the 17th century. From the middle of the 16th century, a middle-class Angeloch family appeared near Bad Wimpfen , possibly citizens of the gender who had become citizens due to impoverishment.
There were also the families from Angelach-Braubach near Braubach and a Dieter from Anwesßheim (Öwisheim), called von Angelach. Although the male first names Hans and Johann were preferred by all three families, according to the current state of research no relationship between the three sexes is assumed, especially since they also had different coats of arms.
