history

The Lerber family goes back to the cloth shearer Urs (1620) who immigrated from Solothurn . From 1795 the family members carried the predicate "from". Original name variants were Lerower and Lerwer .

With the sons of Ursus, the sex was divided into three main lines. The older line, which went back to Governor Samuel (1568–1618), died out in 1753. The younger line, which descended from Governor Hans Rudolf (1582–1646) and belonged to the Guild of Webern , died out in 1818. The middle line is still blooming. After the progenitor Urs had already been elected to the Grand Council of the City of Bern in 1588 , numerous family members came into the regiment through clerk offices , military service and university studies by the end of the Ancien Régime . Several members of the family worked as cloth clippers, tanners and surgeons. At times family members owned goods in Arnex, Englisberg, Heimenhausen, Mezery, Romainmôtier, Sulgenegg, Campagne Bellevue (and Lerbermatt), Gut Lerow on Lake Thun, Gut Montmirail and Oberhofen Castle .
