Wangelin (noble family)
Wangelin is the name of an old Mecklenburg noble family that belonged to the vassals of the princes of Werle .
history
The extent to which the family originated in Magdeburg or Thuringia is just as controversial in 19th century research as the question of whether the divergent Rügish family Wangerin or Wengerin is to be seen as a line of the Mecklenburg family .
The family borrows its name from the Wangelin estate of the same name in the Lübz office and first appears in a document on September 25, 1270 with Hermann Wangelin and with the knight Heynricus de Wangelin and the squire Machorius de Wangelin on August 1, 1282. It was in the 14th century one of the oldest, most respected and subsequently also widely spread noble families of Mecklenburg. The knight Christian von Wangelin appears in the 13th century. The latter was mentioned again at the beginning of the 14th century with his sons, the knights Christian von Wangelin auf Glans and Gerhard von Wangelin, as a Werlian feudal man . Then the brothers Knappen Nikolaus and Gerhard von Wangelin follow Wangelin, the Werlian vassal Knappe Christian and Knappe Mathias and the squire Heinrich von Wangelin on Wendisch Damerow and around 1340 Henning von Wangelin. The family spread to Pomerania, Prussia and Saxony, but had fewer and fewer eyes at the end of the 18th to the beginning of the 19th century.
In Mecklenburg the von Wangelin family still sat in Alt Schwerin in 1796 and died out in the 19th century.
In the registration book of the Dobbertin monastery there are seven entries by daughters of the von Wangelin families from Alt Schwerin and Wangelin from the years 1696–1816 for inclusion in the local aristocratic women's monastery . The coat of arms of the conventual Anna Augusta Juliana von Wangelin, who died in 1752 in the monastery Dobbertin , is on the northern prayer box on the nuns gallery in the monastery church.
- Jacobi von Wangelin
By adoption , Hermann Georg Ludwig Jakobi (1812-1903), landowner of Großjena and since 1841 district administrator of the Naumburg district, added Wangelin to the name and was raised to hereditary nobility in 1842 as Jacobi von Wangelin with authorization to carry the von Wangelin coat of arms . Between 1849 and 1867 he was a member of the Prussian House of Representatives .
