Tegernau (noble family)
The Lords of Tegernau (also Degernau, Tegernowe, Tegernaw, Tegernöwe) called King of Tegernau were a ministerial family in the service of the Habsburgs and the Margraves of Hachberg-Sausenberg, which has been documented since 1228 and which expired in 1729.
history
The family named themselves after the village of Tegernau, a district of the municipality of Kleines Wiesental in the district of Lörrach in Baden-Württemberg . However, it was probably not a local nobility, as no family rights in the village have been proven. In 1228 a document named Walterus von Tegernowe as a follower of the Counts of Habsburg.
In 1414 a Hans von Tegernau called König appeared, whose descendants kept the nickname König until the 17th century. The family is therefore also called King of Tegernau .
One branch of the family lived in the Balingen area of Württemberg in the 16th and 17th centuries .
Georg von Tegernau
As early as 1414, the nobleman Georg (Jörg) von Tegernau appeared more often as a co-sealer and witness in the certification of the business of Margrave Rudolf III. from Hachberg-Sausenberg . In a document dated February 23, 1428, he is referred to as the Supreme Vogt of Margrave Wilhelm von Hachberg-Sausenberg . The margrave was 22 years old at the time and had just taken over the government from his father, Rudolf III, who died on February 8th. Also in 1429, 1430, 1431, 1437, 1438 and 1439 he is mentioned in documents as the highest Vogt of Margrave Wilhelm. When the Margrave abdicated on June 21, 1441 in favor of his underage sons, Rudolf IV and Hugo, Georg von Tegernau was not among the witnesses. When he abdicated, Margrave Wilhelm released all his bailiffs from their oaths.
Count Johann von Freiburg-Neuchâtel took over the government as guardian until 1444 in 1441. In 1443 Georg von Tegernau, as supreme bailiff, seals a judgment of the Röttler district court, which was announced in the name of Margrave Wilhelm.
In December 1443 Georg von Tegernau acts as the supreme bailiff of the Rötteln rule in a dispute with the Lords of Ramstein over the high jurisdiction in Stetten. On January 16, 1444, the Margraves Rudolf IV and his brother Hugo took over the government from their guardian, Count Johann von Freiburg. Shortly afterwards, Margrave Rudolf IV appoints Georg von Tegernau as his representative in this dispute.
