Origin and family
Johann Adolf von der Recke zu Heessen was born as the son of Franz Wilhelm von der Recke zu Heessen (1665-1716) and his wife Beatrix Angela von Vittinghoff called Schell zu Schellenburg. He married Adolfina Kerckerinck zu Stapel (1718-1770) on October 21, 1741. The marriage remained childless. With that the male line died out. His sister Anna Elisabeth was married to Franz Arnold von der Recke zu Steinfurt . So the Heessen estate went to this family, who had separated from the von der Recke line in 1648.
