Johann Georg von Syberg

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Johann Georg von Syberg (* before 1620; † December 9, 1679 ), Lord of Wischelingen , obtained the Drostenamt zu Blankenstein , today Hattingen, for 700 thalers during the Thirty Years' War in 1637 .

Life

From 1637 to 1647 he lived at Blankenstein Castle , then in House Kemnade . Since the castle was threatened with decay and it had become militarily useless, he applied to Elector Friedrich Wilhelm von Brandenburg for its demolition in 1662 . The judge of the Hattingen-Blankenstein court, Kaspar Dornseiffen, uncovered disorder and money evasion of the Drosten to a considerable extent. The fact that he enriched himself by demolishing the castle, which he had to keep from official channels, also aroused the displeasure of parts of the population.

Johann Diedrich von Syberg, who sat on Haus Kliff , was his brother. Through his marriage to Sybilla Arnolda von der Recke (1622–1660), who married Johann Georg in 1639, he came into the possession of House Kemnade and Stiepel in 1647 . She bore him seventeen children and died in childbed the last time she was born . His second son Friedrich Matthias von Syberg inherited the property in Stiepel , the two younger sons Dietrich Wilhelm Abraham von Syberg Haus Wischlingen and Johann Adolf von Syberg Marten , when the trial of the inheritance was over in autumn 1690.

The judge ruled in 1690 that “the Kemnade house, the Stiepel glory, the Stiepel farm with the aristocratic Bauwet, meadows, pastures, mills and wood with all the pieces belonging to the family should not be divided, torn or split, but rather remain with the firstborn in the lineage and the rest, both sons and daughters, should be compensated in other ways.
