Lindstedt (noble family)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Lindstedt is the name of a Thuringian mail nobility family , whose line of roots begins with Friedrich Lindstedt (1809–1886), Prussian Privy Higher Justice Councilor .

This family is to be distinguished from the two ancient noble families of the same name, also extinct, from the Altmark (a tribe with the Eichstedt and Rundstedt ) and from Pomerania .
