Coat of arms of the Baltic noble family "von Lingen"

Lingen is the name of the German-Baltic noble family , which came from Eckernförde around 1670 and settled on the Estonian island of Ösel .

history

As the progenitor of the family branch öselschen Christopher the detectably 1661 and 1662 as true of Lingen († 1703), Schnitzer and - Tischlergesell is named. He became a citizen , merchant and councilor in Arensburg , as evidenced by the signatures of all merchants on August 25, 1675, with which he undertook to come to all meetings of the citizens. His son Friedrich von Lingen (1688–1756) was mayor of Arensburg from 1735 to 1756 and was sent to the coronation of Tsarina Elisabeth as an Oöselsch member . His son Georg Friedrich von Lingen (1728–1796) was in theÖselschen Knighthood Knighthood Secretary and received a certificate of origin from the magistrate in which his father and grandfather are named. In addition, the same name bearers are known in Narva and Reval , who were primarily registered as merchants and citizens and whose origins came from Westphalia and Lübeck . The nobility predicate “von” is unclear , it is more likely to be the designation of origin. The city of Lingen an der Ems could be accepted as the home of the family. Some of the Baltic family members have earned Russian degrees of nobility . Christoph Johann von Lingen (1744–1802) was mayor of Reval and received the rank of college assessor , making him a Russian nobleman . His son Magnus (1789-1865) was also mayor of Reval, merchant and stockbroker in Saint Petersburg and his second son Andreas Alexander (1792-1866) was a Russian general of the artillery . On December 8, 1845, Andreas Alexander was admitted to the öselsche nobility register, followed by his cousin Magnus von Lingen (1789–1865) and his son Karl von Lingen as a Russian privy councilor in Saint Petersburg. Their estates included Kusenöm and Müllershof on Ösel and Göttküll and Türsell in Estonia.

Lingen (Sweden)

Another noble family with the same name and a similarly emblazoned coat of arms exists in the Swedish knighthood , whose progenitor was Johan Claesson von Lingen from a German noble family. His grandson Reinhold Johan von Lingen (1708–1785) was a royal Swedish lieutenant general and was raised to the Swedish nobility in 1743 (no. 1875) and in 1764 to the rank of baron (no. 305). This family died out in 1867 and had no genealogical connection with the von Lingen family.
