Johann Georg of Tübingen

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Johann Georg von Tübingen (* 1594 (?) - † November 3, 1667 ), known as Hansjörg or Captain Tübinger , was the illegitimate son of Count Konrad Wilhelm von Tübingen and his housekeeper Juliana and thus the last male descendant of a once powerful palatine family .

Life

He seems to have grown up in Tübingen, as two respected citizens of the city are known as guardians . His keepers tried to legitimize their ward through Duke Johann Friedrich von Württemberg , and asked the head guardian, Jakob von Geroldseck, for assistance. However, this thwarted the legitimacy to a possible feud - succession submissions. When the nurses presented their request directly to the Emperor Matthias in 1613 , the latter also rejected the request. His stepmother, Countess Anastasia von Leiningen-Westerburg, is also harassed with demands on the House of Württemberg (see above)

After attending the university , Johann Georg found a job in the war system and was stupid and manly .

  • 1624 was he württembergischer Major innately , married Maria Entzlin (Ensslin), the daughter of former Württemberg Chancellor (related by the leading families Württemberg) and called himself from this point of Tubingen (instead of Tübingen )
  • 1630 he reached the Württemberg government its legitimacy as a descendant of the Counts of Tübingen , then a bump in the kingdom - nobility and led from now on the crest of his count's ancestors; he is also appointed commander of Hohentübingen Castle .
  • In 1634 he had to hand over the fortress entrusted to him to an officer of the Duke of Lorraine without a fight , as he had only 70 citizens to occupy him. The university also testified to him that he had only given the castle to her and the city with persuasive persuasion; despite all the justifications, this seems to have prevented his further career.
  • In 1642 he applied for academic citizenship for himself and his family.

Johann Georg survived all of his seven children and died on November 3, 1667 without any (male) descendants. At the end of the 19th century there were rumors in Tübingen that the descendants of 'Captain Tübinger' lived in the old town. (Eifert 1849, p. 93)
