Arms of the von Issendorff family

Issendorff , also Issendorf, is the name of an aristocratic family from Bremen .

history

The family belongs to the ancient nobility of Bremen and is named after the parent company (originally Etzelenthorp , then Issendorf ) near Horneburg . With Hermannus de Etsellendorpe the family was mentioned in a document in 1233 and 1236. The continuous line of tribe begins with Robertus de Edsielenthorpe, presumably a son of the aforementioned. Since 1307 the Issendorff inheritance of the archbishopric or duchy of Bremen, which was confirmed to you in 1426, 1460 and 1498, last as a seniorate.

From the extensive property ownership was for example. Gnarrenburg 1605-1746 family-owned.

Numerous sons of the family were officers in the Hanoverian , Danish, Saxon , Mecklenburg and Prussian armies .

In 1726 the Swedish colonel Johan Christoffer von Issendorff (1671–1736) received the Swedish indigenous class and was introduced to the nobility class of the Swedish knighthood in the same year (No. 1792). Since he left only daughters from his marriage to Anna Margareta Reuter († 1749), the Swedish line with him also expired again.

1871 took place for the Lippe Chamberlain and Chamberlain Jerome of Issendorf (1834-1876), a rise in the Lippe baron . He too had left only daughters from his marriage to Georgette von Donop and thus also decided on the baronial line.

The untitled tribe currently persists.
