Portner (noble family)
The Portner (noble family) were a patrician and aristocratic family that held important administrative functions in Regensburg and that operated a number of hammer mills in the Upper Palatinate . In the 16th century, a number of family members had become Protestant and suffered disadvantages in the course of the Counter Reformation . After the Thirty Years' War its trace is lost in the Upper Palatinate annals.

Portner of Regensburg
The Portner family to be treated below immigrated from Bohemia to Regensburg in the 13th century. These Portners settled in Regensburg , were initially active as long-distance iron traders and were later able to acquire various iron hammers in the Upper Palatinate . Over the centuries they were related by marriage to the other large Hammer families such as the Moller von Heitzenhofen , the Sauerzapf or the Kastner von Amberg . From the 14th to the beginning of the 18th century, its members also sat on the city council. Her coat of arms shows a white fallow deer jumping to the right with golden antlers in a blue field. Over time the Portner owned Leidersdorf, Theuern, Rieden, Haselmühl and Heringnohe. For the products manufactured in these iron hammers, due to the determination of the Upper Palatinate hammer cleaning of 1387, a separate trademark was struck, namely for Leidersdorf “Sittig in der Pann”, for Theuern “Flammen in der Pann”, for Wolfsbach “Ring! in der Pann ”, for Hesselmühl (Haselmühl) the“ Angel uffm Ruck ”and for Heringnohe“ Feuerhaken in der Pann ”.
In 1317 a Heinrich I. Portner appears in the Regensburg council lists in the Hanseatic Committee. His commercial activity related to the cloth, spice and wine trade as well as the business of the moneylender. This Heinrich the Elder was also a believer in the dukes of Bavaria. Up to 1500 another eight Portners were known as councilors, city treasurers and as "45s" (member of the 45-person external council). As economic conditions changed, Portners became administrators and lawyers in the centuries that followed; Only seven Portnerstrasse be from 1514 to 1670 as a eunuch called. In 1670 Andreas Portner was the last of the Regensburg Portner to leave the city.
Portner of Leidersdorf
In 1498, Abbot Johann von Kloster Ensdorf sold the hammer, mill and farm to Leidersdorf in the presence of Hannsen zu Helmstat , electoral vicar of Amberg, for 3,106 Rhenish guilders to the Wolf brothers , licensed to both Regensburg, Lienhart , Peter and Hans Portner . These brothers were sons of Lienhart Portner (* around 1425/30, † 1507/10) from Regensburg from the fifth generation of the Portners (counted from Heinrich the Elder ). This Lienhart was married to Anna , daughter of Hans Steinhauser , merchant and councilor in Regensburg. Since he handed over the completely indebted free imperial city of Regensburg to the Bavarian duke, he was brought to justice and tortured. His eldest son Wolfgang ( Wolf , * 1460) married Margarete , daughter of Lukas Fugger von Reh . Her son Christoph Portner von Leidersdorf (* 1510, † March 12, 1588) was a co-owner of the hammer there. His second marriage was to Katharina , daughter of Hans Ruland von Frauenbüchel , councilor from Burghausen . Christoph was (with interruptions) from 1522 to 1588 chamberlain in Regensburg. No descendants are known of his brother Heinrich Portner von Leidersdorf .
The brother Hans († 1585/86) married in Bohemia and then called himself Hans zum Kuglhof (an estate near Schlackenwald ). In 1518 Hans Portner († 1618/19), son of Peter , took over Leidersdorf. It is known that he got into a dispute with his father over the removal of wood for burning coal from the monastery forests, which was settled in 1532. From 1602 he was followed by his son of the same name, Hans (* 1542). After he was sickly and without offspring, he sold Leidersdorf on January 16, 1613 to his sister-in-law Katharina , the widow Quirin Portner . Leidersdorf was then sold to the wife of the Amberg rentier Saugenfinger in May 1621 and was lost to the porters forever.
Portner on Wolfsbach
In 1515 Peter Portner (* 1466 in Regensburg) becomes master of the Wolfsbach hammer . He was married to Veronika , daughter of the hammer gentleman Paul Sauerzapf , daughter of the very wealthy Jakob Sauerzapf . He converted the mill in Wolfsbach into a tin hammer . The Schienhammer Wolf Bach was in 1527 and 1557 in operation. Peter Portner had three sons: Wolf , Hans (* 1515) and Heinrich . In 1532 Peter Portner bequeathed the hammer to his son Hans . The widow Anna Portnerin and her three sons are named in 1586 in a lawsuit against Wolfsbach hammer master Wolf Jakob Oberstetter for the removal of wood . Hans Portner zu Leidersdorf in turn has three sons, Endres , Hans and Quirin ; Together with them he acquired the castle hat to Rieden in 1584 . This branch of the family was subsequently called Portner zu Schwarzenfeld, Rieden and Theuern . Hans was in his second marriage to Anna , née Oettlinger vom Heimhof , a sister of his sister-in-law Benigna . In 1579 the Regensburg citizen Martin Z (r) ennerfels is the owner of Wolfsbach, so the plant has been sold.
Portner on Theuern
Theuern was first owned by Paul Sauerzapf . He sold this work to Peter Nortweiner . His son Ruger Nortweiner then sold the Theuern, which his father had inherited, to Peter Portner († 1534) in 1518 . He was married to Veronica Sauerzapf († after 1560) in 1505 ; on July 16, 1510, he was accepted into the imperial nobility and from then on called himself Portner von und zu Theuern . Theuern came after him to the widow Veronika († 1602) and the sons Wolf (* between 1510 and 1515, † July 6, 1590) and Heinrich († 1587); the third son Hans (* 1515) had received the hammer Wolfsbach. With a document dated February 7, 1560, the widow and her sons were also granted patrimonial jurisdiction over Theuern. The older son Wolf was the caretaker in Hainburg near Neumarkt and in 1564 the administrator of the Ensdorf monastery (the Benedictine monastery was closed during the Reformation and was placed under state administration). Theuern was bequeathed to Wolf's son Friedrich († September 2, 1632) . He was married to Anna , daughter of Leonhard Münzer , citizen of Amberg. After Ottheinrich's religious mandate , the Duchy of Palatinate-Neuburg went over to Lutheranism on June 22, 1542 , and Friedrich became Protestant, which was momentous for the Portners when the Counter-Reformation was later implemented .
Between 1550 and 1579 Heinrich had built and moved into a new one to the west of the old Castle of Theuern. Wolf stayed in the old castle, the "old Stockh, as far as the moat encircles" . Both buildings were two-story and not particularly large. Heinrich was married to Benigna , daughter of Hans Ettlinger on Heimhof . The couple had no children; their inheritance went to the children of Hans Portner von Wolfsbach. This Hans Portner (* around 1515) first appointed a Lutheran preacher for Theuern in 1548, namely Johannes Kraus von Regensburg. Hans Joachim Portner is mentioned in 1579/80 and 1594/95 as the operator of the Schienhammer Haselmühl and the Hammer Schwarzenfeld .
In 1590 a contract was signed between Friedrich Portner , Wolf's son , and his cousins Endres , Hans and Quirin Portner because of the branch and kiln coals (the Landsassengut Theuern was still divided until 1594). In 1594/95 Hans and Quirin Portner are named as operators of the hammer from Theuern. Since 1620 the Quirin Portner owned the Hammergut Theuern alone. In his will of 1612 he determined, "The hammer should die because the forests can no longer supply the necessary wood" . His son Wolf Heinrich stayed on Theuern. For Hans Andre Portner von Theuern, who did not manage his property successfully, the Amberg citizen Heinrich Müller was appointed as guardian in 1622, who “repaired the hammer mill, as it was a lot earlier,” and was able to generate more income. The Theuerner Portner, because they did not want to become Catholic, had to emigrate in 1629 and the hammer worked again in 1630, but with a loss of 1,500 fl.
After the death of Heinrich Theuern, the children of Hans Portner ( Endres , Hans and Quirin ) owned Leidersdorf and Rieden. Endres got Rieden, Hans Leidersdorf and Quirin Theuern. Quirin († September 1612) succeeded in clearing Theuern's heavy debt. Since 1592 he was married to Katharina († 1615), daughter of Philipp von Kemnath on Hohenkemnath . The couple had four sons and a daughter (her name was Anna Maria and died in 1618). In his will, Quirin stipulated that Sebastian Wolf (* 1593) should stay at the old castle in Theurn, Georg (* 1603) should move into the new castle with his mother, Wolf Heinrich (* 1596) should stay at the hammer Theuern live and Hans Georg (born January 10, 1600) should receive 1,000 florins instead of living space. The princely counselor and caretaker of Pielenhofen Ludwig Scharffenberg on Neusath and the Burgsasse von Rieden, Hans Andre Portner, were appointed as guardians for the children . After the Quirin's death , the estate fell rapidly. The two older sons were accused of a "dissolute life", Sebastian Wolf was even supposed to leave Theuern for a year because of his lavish life, which he did not do. According to a report from January 3, 1616, the hammer smiths, coal burners and day laborers "howled" because they had no work and consequently no income due to a lack of ore. The two older sons were summoned to Amberg because of their waste and were arrested for two days. The two younger sons Georg and Hans Georg went to the grammar school in Sulzbach and Hans Georg studied law at the University of Altdorf since 1620 , in 1625 he applied for a passport to Italy, which he was not allowed to do. Wolf Heinrich disappears from Theuern's files after 1627; he is likely to have died in Danish military service. Sebastian Wolf married the widow of Tobias Mendel zu Haselmühl in 1626 , a daughter of Hans Joachim Portner von Heringnohe . Georg married the emigrant Anna Felicitas von Elsenheim on August 10, 1627 , her brother was the imperial councilor in Regensburg.
However, in the meantime the Upper Palatinate had come to Bavaria and on September 5, 1628, in the course of the Counter Reformation, an electoral patent was issued, according to which the estates and subjects were instructed to become Catholic within six months or to find accommodation with women and children outside Bavaria search. This period was extended to the nobles until the New Year 1629. Georg and Hans Georg Portner tried to sell Theuern for the estimated value of 20,000 fl, but they did not succeed. Sebastian Portner stayed in Haselmühl until New Year 1629 without converting to the Catholic faith. He was fined by a "Einspännigen" (a mounted policeman) and imprisoned in the "Fuchssteiner". After his release he emigrated to Altdorf .
On January 24, 1629, Hans Georg Portner had also received the request to emigrate immediately. He then rode to Sulzbach, but was arrested on his return to Theuern because of a letter of purchase and taken to Amberg by a "Einspännigen". He was released on February 27, 1629. Then he went to Altdorf and later to Happurg , where he stayed permanently. In May 1629 he was allowed to return shortly to Theuren with the approval of the government, but was arrested for a month in June because he had led his bride Anna Elisabeth , daughter of Wolf Rumel, out of the country. She had to appear in Amberg for instruction and he was then released. She was supposed to come back to the office after two weeks, but on August 22nd she was at her cousin Löffelholz in Nuremberg. On October 19, 1629, Hans Georg Portner was again under arrest because he had not brought his bride here. After he vowed to leave her, he was released. In 1630 he was deprived of jurisdiction over Theuern. In that year he also showed a tendency to adopt the Catholic faith; after a “spiritual conversation” he refrained from changing his faith. On November 14, 1630 he married the 20-year-old Anna Elisabeth von Ruml von Lonnerstadt on Zant . Hans Georg Portner could come in 1631 for a few days after Theuern and put to light measurement as a new Hüttkapfer Hans Christoph von sit on. In 1631 and 1632 the hammer and mill in Theuern were destroyed by the troops passing through. On May 20, 1632 he reported to the government that his estate had been ruined and spoiled by the war people. At the end of 1632 the government allowed him to settle in Schwandorf. In 1633 he seems to have entered the service of Nuremberg, because on May 23, 1633 he received a silver drinkware from the city council as a gift and on June 30, 1633 he was involved in the capture of Neumarkt by the Swedish general Gustaf Horn . When he withdrew to Donauwörth , Portner remained in command of Neumarkt. On July 17, 1633, the Procurator von Amberg requested that Hans Georg Portner should be punished for life and limb when he entered the country and that his property be confiscated. But this did not happen because he died of the plague on October 16, 1633. His widow died in 1637, the guardianship of her only child Anna Katherina (born August 1, 1631 in Happurg) was transferred to her uncle Sebastian , after his death the orphan was with her uncle Ruml zu Zant on April 18, 1643 .
After the death of Hans Georg Portner , Georg became the sole owner of Theuern. He got his son Georg Wilhelm (born February 24, 1629) and was allowed to stay in Theuern for the time being. His application for an extension was rejected and he went to Happurg. When he returned with a doctor from Hersbruck on March 17, 1629 because his child was ill , he was fined 12 thalers, but remained free. His wife and child moved to Happurg on July 7, 1629, and the child died 20 days later. Their second son Antonius Sigismund was born there (* February 25, 1630), in 1633 the family lived in Hersbruck and received a passport for Regensburg that year. The son Johann Georg was born here on May 26, 1634 . When the government wanted to lend a hand to Theuern because of Hans Georg Portner , Georg lodged an objection, because as a co-owner he had not owed anything against the government. Georg was allowed to come to Theuern several times because of the construction of the mill. Since the Riedener cousins canceled their loan (debts 14,000 fl) in February 1636, Theuern was estimated and this resulted in a total value of 41,000 fl. By a court settlement on August 21, 1637 Andre and his ward Heinrich Sigmund received the administration and usufruct of Theuern (1646 final handover). Georg had to vacate the castle apartment and was denied access to the old castle. The Georg remaining after deducting all loads 7.130 fl. His family was in the meantime grown to eight people.
His already mentioned son Johann Georg († 1706) became Catholic and married Johanna Juliana von Leonprechting in 1661 . In 1662 he was forest master of Waldsassen Abbey and district judge of Wiesau . Already in 1668 he had bought back the 2/5-part of Theuern from Johann Jakob Portner (son of Hans Andre ). In 1682 he had a new house built in Theuern, which is known today as the Jägerhaus. The construction cost between 1,500 and 2,000 guilders and led to his indebtedness. On August 6th, 1684 Andre Ruland became hammer master of Theuern. On September 28, 1694, the latter bought the entire share of Johann Georg , Theuern thus came completely into his hands, as he had already acquired the 2/5 share from the Riedener line of the Portners. This ends the Portner line on Theuern. Descendants of other siblings of Johann Georg lived in Regensburg until 1735.
Theuern was so taken along in the winter of 1638/39 and until the end of the Thirty Years' War that it was barren and devoid of facilities until 1681.
The Georg Portner , hammer champion Theuern were, in October 1632 Regensburg only 72 fl for the pound drive rails offered; On November 25, 1631, the sovereign had stipulated that 88 fl for work iron, 78 fl for bent work iron and 48 fl for rubble iron, in 1627 100 to 120 fl was paid for the pound of work iron, either the products were now under Market value sold or the price has fallen. In 1668 the son of Georg Portner , Johann Georg , acquired a 2/5 share of the hammer mill from his cousin Johann Jakob in addition to his father's inheritance . He tried to repair the war damage, but as early as 1681 and 1684 Andre Ruland was named as hammer master in Theuern, who in 1687 bought the 3/5 share and in 1694 also the rest of the Theuern estate from the porters.
A Johann Albrecht Portner von Theuern was a member of the inner secret council of the city of Regensburg and Hansgraf . He married Magdalena Ammon ; the son from this marriage was called Peter again and was also a member of the inner secret council, consitorial director and Hansgraf (* March 5, 1580, † February 23, 1660). His first marriage was in 1611 with Catharina Prasch , b. Handel († 1626); in his second marriage in 1628 he married the widow Susanne Gruber , née Kerscher († January 28, 1678). The son from his second marriage was called Johann Albrecht (* December 28, 1629 in Regensburg, † February 2, 1687 in Vienna). He was the Württemberg councilor, member of the inner council and consultant in Regensburg, in 1671 he became Reichshofrat in Vienna.
After a survey conducted by the rulers about the location of the hammer mills in 1637, hammer masters Sebastian Wolf Portner von Haselmühl and Georg Portner zu Theuern reported that the hammers were not ready for use or not in operation because they were dilapidated. The reason is the lack of iron sales and the lack of working capital. Sebastian Wolf Portner von Haselmühl emigrated because of his Evangelical Lutheran creed ; he seems to have first leased the hammer to the sovereign. A Christoph Portner von Theuern auf Gressenwöhr († 1691) is mentioned on the occasion of his death.
Portner on Heringnohe
The owner of Heringnohe , Wilhelm Frank (also Hammerherr von Haynow ), married his daughter Ursula to Lienhart (Leonhard) Portner , who was mentioned when Leidersdorf was bought in 1498, in 1491 . This then inherited Heringnohe in 1517; he is also mentioned in 1461 as a citizen of Regensburg and in 1487 and 1489 as a treasurer of Regensburg. His son Albrecht Portner von Leidersdorf auf Heringnohe († 1540) was the next to get the property. He was married to Margarete , daughter of Paul Modler von Amberg . Albrecht lived in Amberg in 1520 and in Sulzbach in 1530. He died on August 18, 1540 and was buried in Vilseck . Albrecht had eight children: Michael von Heringnohe (* 1528, † January 11, 1580) became a citizen of Nuremberg on June 19, 1553. He married Appolonia , daughter of Hans Salzer , saddle master from Nuremberg. By profession he was an iron wholesaler, in 1558 he was a member of the city council and in 1563 he was a district captain of St. Lorenz. He had no male offspring.
His brother Kaspar von Heringnohe (* 1522, † 1568) was a businessman in Regensburg. From 1555 to 1567 he was the city treasurer. On September 6th, 1547 he married Ursula , daughter of Hans Kämmerer . His son Johann Albrecht von Heringnohe (* 1549) also lived in Regensburg and held the office of city treasurer with interruptions from 1580 to 1605. His sons Kaspar and Peter still called themselves von Heringnohe . Both were enrolled at the University of Jena . Peter (born March 5, 1580) was an influential figure in Regensburg: in 1613 he was a city judge, 1620 city treasurer, 1623 director of the guardianship office, 1624 Hansgraf and 1625 accountant, consul and senior of Regensburg. In 1611 he had Katahrina , daughter of the former mayor of Steyr Hieronymus Händt who had emigrated to Regensburg . His son Albert (born December 29, 1629, † February 2, 1687 in Vienna) was the last Portner in Regensburg. He attended the University of Altdorf in 1644, the University of Strasbourg in 1646 , and from 1657 to 1670 he was a councilor in his hometown. In 1671 he went to Vienna as an Imperial Court Councilor . His only son Johann Friedrich died before him.
The son Wilhelm (* around 1524) of Albrecht Portner followed in Heringnohe, who further expanded the hammer mill. In 1557 he was enfeoffed with Heringnohe. He married a Brigitte , daughter of Paul Hegner von Altenweiher , Hammerherr himself. Their son Hans Joachim became the owner of the hammer Haselmühle in 1585 (see below). The older brother Elias (* 1550, † 1609 in Vilseck) became the owner of Heringnohe. His wife, the widow of Valentin Mendel von Steinfels , brought him the Hammer Hütten near Weiden in 1604 . His inheritance was taken over by his son Hans Adam , who was master of Heringnohe until 1612. Hans Adam Portner von Theuern zu Heringnohe was married to Anna Maria Moller von Heitzenhofen († 1626). His brother was Christoph zu Goßbau , whose son Hans Conrad came to the seminary of Amberg. Hans Adam still had the daughter Cordula Amalie (* 1612), who was married to Tobias Adler , Privy Councilor and member of the Inner Council of Regensburg. She died soon after his death on March 28, 1685. Hans Adam Portner refused to convert and therefore had to emigrate without receiving any compensation for his property. The line from Portner to Heringnohe is lost during the Thirty Years' War.
Portner to Haselmühl
The hammer Haselmühl came to the Heringnoher Portner Hans Joachim Portner by marriage around 1585 . He was married to Dorothea , daughter Leonhard Gleich and brother-in-law of the former hammer owner Leonhard Gleich . From 1588 he also owned the Kümmersbruck estate . He is mentioned in 1579/80 and 1594/95 as the operator of the Schienhammer Haselmühl. His son Hans Christoph took over Haselmühl and Kümmersbruck. His daughter Barbara married Tobias Mendl von Steinfels († 1622), who in 1614 bought Hammergut Haselmühl from his brother-in-law Hans Christoph . His widow married Sebastian Portner from the Theuerner line in 1626 .
Sebastian Portner stayed in Haselmühl until New Year 1629 without converting to the Catholic faith. He was brought to Amberg by a "Einspännigen" (a mounted policeman), fined and locked in the "Fuchssteiner". After his release he emigrated to Altdorf . When the Gant via Haselmühl opened in 1633 , he was likely to come back for a short time. In several requests he later pleaded to be able to come back completely, which was promised to him if he became Catholic. After his wife and stepson Hans Gallus Mendl von Steinfeld died of the plague, he reported to the government on November 13, 1634 and was arrested on November 17, 1634. After he was instructed in Catholic doctrine by Franciscans and had confessed on December 22nd, 1636, he was given permission to stay permanently in the country. After his death († 1640) Haselmühl came as heir to his brother Georg . However, all of Haselmühl's goods came under the hammer on October 15, 1640; the property devastated by the war was estimated at 9,939 fl and sold in 1642.
Portner on the Burghut vineyards
Hans Portner zu Leidersdorf , together with his three sons Endres , Hans and Quirin, acquired the Kemnathische or rear Burghut zu Rieden in 1584 . The eldest son Endres (Andreas) († 1602) of Hans got vineyards after the death of his father and mother in 1602. This had the sons Hans Andre and Hans Sigmund and the daughter Martha († 1645); whose heir Altdorf came to Hans Andre and the two sons of his brother Hans Sigmund because their son had already died .
Hans Sigmund (* around 1587, † 1680) became captain of Fähnlein Rötz in September 1620. In 1618 he sat on Thann , whom he and Gleiritsch married to his wife Margareth von Plassenberg . He had Thann Castle, which was destroyed in the Thirty Years' War, rebuilt. Since he did not want to become a Catholic, he left his property on February 20, 1629, which after deducting the debts had a value of 20,000 fl. He bought some things in Eckersdorf for his later stay . Together with his brother, he was one of the main believers in Theuern. In 1632 he was taken hostage by imperial troops because of his ties to the Swedes. On January 31, 1636 he married a second time, this time the widow Anna Maria of the Brandenburg captain Friedrich von Pusch , née Metzsch . In 1636 he was allowed to visit the completely burned down Gut Thann again. He died on October 27, 1638 in Bayreuth . His children were the son Heinrich Sigmund (* 1628) and the daughter Cäcilia Barbara , who married a Tanner von Eckersdorf. Heinrich Sigmund was forced to break off his studies in Nuremberg for lack of money. In 1642 he joined Johann von Werth's Bavarian army . In 1646 he became co-owner of Theuern. When the division was divided on April 25, 1669, he received 3 / 5ths of the share, the co-owner Georg Portner retained 2/3 of the share. Heinrich Sigmund emigrated to Hersbruck in 1660. He had no offspring, so his inheritance fell to the children of his uncle Andreas Portner .
His eldest son Hans Andre († 1670) took over Rieden. On August 28, 1608, he married Anna Maria († March 5, 1625), née von Müffling . He became the guardian of his uncle Quirin's children . In September 1620, Hans Andre and his brother Hans Sigmund followed the call of Elector Friedrich V and joined the Hundt riding company in Waidhaus . In April 1622, Hans Andre accompanied the Bavarian regiment Lorenzo del Maestro as commissioner, although his own Rieden estate was plundered by this unit. After the announcement of the religious patent of 1629, Hans Andre settled in Wöhrd , a suburb of Nuremberg. After the capture of Regensburg by Bernhard von Weimar , he lived there for some time in November 1633, but returned to Wöhrd when the siege by the imperial troops threatened. His claims to Theuern (the local porters owed him 14,000 fl) were recognized by the government in Amberg in 1635 and in 1636 he canceled the loan. On August 21, 1637 he and his nephew Heinrich Sigmund , son of his brother, who had since died, were awarded the Theuern estate. Hans Andre then sold vineyards to Egid Steiner , citizen of Rieden and hammer master in Wolfsbach. On June 12, 1638, he and his family moved to Theuern while maintaining the 3/5-th claims of Heinrich Sigmund . On June 2, 1646, Theuern was handed over to Hans Andre and his cousin Heinrich Sigmund against reimbursement of debts and court costs. Hans Andre had already given his 2/5-th share to his son Johann Jakob before his death . He was married to Justina Katharina Lochner von Hüttenbach . Since 1652 he had been the master of Altendorf, which his father had received from his sister. On January 6, 1660, he converted to the Catholic faith. In 1668 he sold his share in Theuern to his cousin Johann Georg Portner . On November 9th, 1685 he and his sister Margareta von Brandt got the 3 / 5th share of Theuern after the death of their cousin Heinrich Sigmund , which he sold to his son Georg Christoph on July 1st, 1685 . This also became Mr. von Altdorf. He was married to Anna Barbara von Fischbach . He seems to have been financially not well off and so he sold his share in Theuern to Andre Ruland on May 14, 1687 .
The second son of Johann Jakob was called Johann Albrecht Erdmann Portner von Theuern (* 1658) and had already been raised Catholic. In 1696 he became the owner of Pullenried , which was still owned by the Preisslingers in 1693 and had come to him through his wife Katharina Ludmilla von Wiedersberg . This seems to have been a widowed Preißlinger , since Johann Albrecht Erdmann also had the stepson Friedrich Wilhelm von Preißlinger . In 1702 he was first lieutenant in the Maffei regiment and on December 7, 1717 he asked Munich for the knight tax to be waived for the Pullenried estate, as it had been completely looted in 1705. In 1736 this property was auctioned off to the government councilor Freiherr von Wildenau from Amberg . Johann Albrecht Erdmann moved to Eppenried and in 1738 to Oberviechtach . He died here on May 5, 1741, and with him the last descendant of Portner von Theuern. Whether it really has to be viewed as an ultimus familiae is doubted, since a Caspar Portner was admitted to Zweibrücken on September 27, 1702 and another Conrad Portner was born on October 29, 1769 in Zweibrücken. These could be descendants of the Heringnoher line of the Portners who had to emigrate 400 years ago.
Varia
The archivist, historian and writer August Sperl (1862–1926) wrote a historical novel about the figure of Hans Georg Portner .
In Regensburg, the "Portnergasse" is a reminder of this once important family. There is also a Portnerstrasse in Theuern,
