Name customer

Before the 17th century this name only appears occasionally. It is a Low German name meaning in Low German " frog ". The frog is also in the arms of both family branches. The side view of a standing bear has been proven to be a fake.

genealogy

The Pogges can be traced back to Hans Pogge (1621–1701), leaseholder on Westenbrugge (northeast of Wismar), with a complete line of ancestors in Mecklenburg.

Mecklenburg tribe

There are seven outstanding members of the Mecklenburg tribe of Pogge:

Pomeranian branch

Hans Pogge's grandson, Carl-Heinrich Pogge (1720–1785), founded the Pomeranian branch of the Pogge tribe when he moved to Greifswald . His son was the merchant and important coin collector Carl Friedrich Pogge (1752-1840).

Descendants

The Mecklenburg Pogges left Mecklenburg almost without exception in 1945. In the old federal states there are still numerous descendants, but only three bearers of this family's name. However, the family has numerous descendants (including namesake) in Great Britain and the USA, as well as the Pomeranian Pogges.

Common ancestors with the Pogges, who originally sat in Westphalia ( Salzkotten ) and now live in the Rhineland, cannot be proven.
