history

The origin of the Tiedemann family is not certain. The message in Siebmacher's coat of arms book from 1878 that the family was raised to the imperial nobility on October 11, 1522 in the person of Lieutenant Colonel Georg Tiedemann by Emperor Charles V is not documented. So far, the family has been genealogically traced back to the 16th century.

Thus the family was with from Vechta in Niederstift Munster native Caspar Tideman, who was constantly at home by 1538 (Fire of Vechta) in Gdansk, ibid. First mentioned begins its regular series with the Danziger shipowners and remote dealer Hans Tidemann († 1617) . In the following generations, the family mixed up with the Danzig city ​​patriciate and the Pomeranian and Pomeranian landed gentry. From the end of the 16th century, the Tiedemann came into possession of noble estates through inheritance or purchase.

The royal Polish captain and lord of Prangschin, Ferdinand von Tiedemann, received confirmation of Polish nobility on November 11, 1724 . His sons Franz Gerhard von Tiedemann on Prangschin and Woyanow, Carl Eduard von Tiedemann on Goschin and Ludwig Ferdinand von Tiedemann on Russoschin, among others, received recognition of the Prussian nobility in 1774 through homage after the Prussian conquest .

A Prussian name and crest association with the extinguished Danziger of Brandis , who were lifted into the realm peerage on 14 August 1554 as of Tiedemann called von Brandis came in Berlin on 13 December 1820 the Prussian chamberlain and landscape Director Franz von Tiedemann to Prang Schin and Voyanow. This line became extinct in the male line with Lieutenant Reinhard von Tiedemann, known as von Brandis, who fell in 1944 .
