Sandrart (family)
The noble family von Sandrart and the bourgeois family Sandrart go back to a common line. They come from the Walloon Hainaut in the Spanish Netherlands until 1713 .
history
The first verifiable family member was the captain in the life guard of Pope Alexander VI. and tin caster, Jean de Sandrat (* 1449; † 1509 in Rome). Around 1500 this received from Alexander VI. confirmata insuper nobilitate eius the two fiefs of Lescaille and Fay near Mons in Hainaut .
The family line began with the tin caster Georg Sandrart (* 1526 in Mons; † 1583 in Frankfurt), married to Elisabeth Caille, who in 1571/72 was a Protestant refugee due to religious persecution by the Duke of Alba , who from 1567 to 1573 Governor Emperor Charles V in the Netherlands, settled in Frankfurt am Main . This line appeared since the 18th century in Prussian military service as v. Sandrart, where the family's title of nobility was not objected to. Even before that, on July 20, 1653, Joachim von Sandrart the Elder had Ä. (1606–1688) obtained confirmation of imperial nobility and coat of arms in Regensburg .
The bourgeois Sandrarts also go back to the above-mentioned, later ennobled, papal captain and pewter caster Jean de Sandrart. While the aforementioned Georg Sandrart went to Frankfurt, other family members left their homeland at the same time to take up residence in Strasbourg in Alsace . In 1681, the previously free imperial city of Strasbourg became French. In 1685, Louis XIV abolished the freedom of religion given in the Edict of Nantes in France. Four generations after the first escape, a descendant, the merchant and tobacco manufacturer Georg Sandrart (born May 15, 1665 in Strasbourg; † October 8, 1727), emigrated to Magdeburg together with his stepfather Daniel Würtz, again as a religious refugee .
As early as 1690, the two new citizens Würtz and Sandrart acquired the large electoral manufactory at today's Georgenplatz and founded a tobacco manufacture there that had been very successful for decades. On January 28, 1695 (at the age of 30) Georg Sandrart became a citizen of the Palatinate colony of Magdeburg. He was married to Elisabeth Timmermann (* around 1675 in Mannheim; † around 1745 in Magdeburg), a daughter of the mayor of the Palatinate colony Theodor Timmermann (1627–1700). The marriage had seven children. His son-in-law Georg Sandrart inherited the “Fischapotheke” (fish pharmacy in the Palatinate) (Alter Markt 13) from Timmermann. The Sandrarts are associated with many of Magdeburg's important bourgeois families, among them the names Gaertner and Schwartz .
A number of mayors of the Palatinate colony of Magdeburg emerged from the Sandrart family. Specifically, these were Georg's brother Peter Sandrart (* around 1656; † 1722) from 1700 to 1722, his son Johann Georg Sandrart (* around 1690; † 1763) from 1748 to 1763 and his grandson Georg Philip Sandrart (* around 1738; †) 1788) from 1784 to 1788. After all, Georg Sandrart's granddaughter Philippine Jakobea Sandrart was the wife of the mayor Georg Philipp Dohlhoff .
coat of arms
The coat of arms of the noble line is emblazoned as follows : In blue a silver rafter, accompanied by 3 natural (also silver) grapes with two green leaves each; on the helmet with blue-silver blankets a natural pelican sitting on its nest, nourishing its young.
The coat of arms of the civil line Sandrart differs only slightly from the above noble coat of arms, but is much simpler in decor. It is preserved on some grave tablets and a communion jug of the German Reformed Congregation Magdeburg: In blue a red rafter, accompanied by 3 grapes.
