Zoege from Manteuffel

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Zoege von Manteuffel or Manteuffel called Szoege or Manteuffel-Szoege is the name of an old Baltic noble family that begins in the Baltic with Gerardus Soye , who is mentioned in a document on June 11, 1325 as a Viennese vassal of the King of Denmark Christian II along with 40 others . In 1333 and 1360 "Johannes dictus Zoge" is mentioned as Canon of Dorpat. In a document dated June 30, 1390, Henneke and Gert Soye are referred to as the sons of Claus. Hermann, Claus, Otto and Hans Soye sealed the Archbishop's document with the German Order in 1428 .

Surname

The name changed between Zoye , Soye , Soeghe , Zoeghe , Zöge , Szöge , Zoege and Szoege or other spellings. The nickname " Manteuffel " was first adopted in Courland in the 17th century, later also in Estonia and Livonia , and is now often used as the main name for the sake of simplicity. Presumably it is a family of Baltic Germans or knights of German descent who came to the country towards the end of the 12th century as part of the German East Settlement with the Order of the Brothers of the Sword .

There is no relationship to the Pomeranian family with the name of Manteuffel , which also has another coat of arms. It is unclear why the Szoege family from Courland also adopted this name. The Courland line was first sealed in 1528 with a coat of arms almost identical to the coat of arms of the Zoeges from Estonia. The Polish Rittmeister Evert (Eberhard) Soye auf Zunzen was the first to write - initially once - "Szoege gen. Manteuffel" in 1601. It was only his son Eberhard (1590–1637) who regularly used the nickname Manteuffel. A family history of the Courland line published in 1909 listed two fictional married couples that they linked to the Pomeranian line, which was corrected months later. The "Manteuffelsche Familienverband eV" founded in 1894 includes all namesake.
