Lüder (noble family)
Lüder is the name of a Prussian noble family .
Origins
The sex is a Quedlinburg civil servant family . The trunk series begins with Pasche Paschasius Luder (1494–1564) from Quedlinburg.
The family was widely ramified and divided into two main lines, from which various bearers of the name were ennobled one after the other at short intervals.
- Brandenburg line:
- Imperial nobility ( Vienna April 14, 1696) for Johann Werner Lüder, Elector of Brandenburg Chamber Judge ,
- Imperial nobility ( Vienna January 29, 1779) for Christian Wilhelm Lüder, ( Chamber Councilor in Zinna), nephew of the aforementioned Johann Werner Lüder,
- Prussian nobility ( Berlin March 13, 1787) for Johann Wilhelm Lüder, brother of Christian Wilhelm Lüder, and stepson of the Chancellor of the University of Halle Carl Christoph von Hoffmann (1735–1801). Johann Wilhelm Lüder was a landowner in Brandenburg and owned the Dölzig manor .
Several of the rungs of the tribe joined the Prussian army . One of Lüder was in 1806 as a first lieutenant in the regiment "von Tschammer" , two brothers in the regiment of the Prince of Braunschweig-Oels . The older one went into English service in 1809, the younger one died in 1824 as a captain in the 5th Infantry Regiment . There is no precise information about another family with this name, whose estates were in what is now the province of Saxony.
- Estonian line:
- Friedrich Gottlieb Lueder was accepted into the Russian hereditary nobility on December 13, 1785 (nobility confirmation). His son Karl von Lueder was accepted into the Estonian knighthood in 1821 .
coat of arms
Since different descendants of Paschasius Luder were ennobled, each line has its own coat of arms, which differ from one another. The coat of arms of the Lüder in Prussia is silver, it shows a trunk with two trimmed branches, like a fork, accompanied by one, two or three gold stars. The Baltic (Estonian) line has a defunct, overturned brown one in silver Rafters, accompanied by three eight-pointed stars, an eight-pointed green star on the helmet.
