- Wolfgang von Graben
-
Wolfgang von Graben, also Wolfgang de Groben (de Gröben) († 11 December 1521 Kornberg castle, Styria), was a member of the Austrian nobility.
Biography
Wolfgang was a descendent of the Von Graben von Stein family, who sprang out from the dynastie Meinhardiner. His parents were Ulrich III von Graben and Agnes Närringer,[1] Virgil von Graben was his cousin.
He was first named in 1470 as heritage Jörg II. Steinwalds of some manors of 30 styrian Stubenberg fiefs.[2] In 1481 Fredericks III of Austira pledged him castle Gurnitz.[3]
In 1483 Wolfgang to Holland where he mairred and from whom the sons Pieter and Abraham were born; both sons called Graeff. De Graeff was the dutch spelling of Von Graben in the 14 and 15th century. Pieter Graeff (married Grietz Pieters Berents), who became the ancrestor of the Dutch De Graeff family,[4] and Abraham (op den) Graeff, who became the ancrestor of the German Op den Graeffs.[5] In the Diploma of Nobility from 19 July 1677 loaned to Andries de Graeff,[6] it was affirmed that the family de Graeff was formerly called von Graben, which is the same as de Graeff. This family today shows the same coat of arms as the De Graeff family.[7]
Bag in Austria in 1485 Wolfgang became one of the emperor Fredericks mayor captains in the war against Matthias Corvinus.[8]
In 1490 he succeeded his cousin Georg Breuner as lord of some smaler styrian and imperial fiefs. In the same year he was in of castle Neidenstein.[9]
Later he became burggraf of Saldenhofen (1498),[10] bailiff of Bad Radkersburg[11] and Tabor (since 1501)[12] and since 1510 as succeeder of his brother Andree von Graben of Slovenj Gradec (Windischgraetz).[13]
In 1509 he was made advisor to Emperor Maximilian I of Austira.[14]
In 1520 he inherited together with his brothers Andree und Wilhelm von Graben Schloss Graben near Novo Mesto (Rudolfswerth) in Carniola.[15]
Descendants of Wolfgang von Graben
About the De Graeffs: During the Dutch Golden Age the De Graeffs said that they descendant from Wolfgang von Graben who was in Holland in 1483.[16] In the Diploma of Nobility from 1677 loaned to Andries de Graeff it was affirmed that the family De Graeff was formerly called von Graben, which is the same as De Graeff.[17]
About the Op den Graeffs: During the Thirty Years' War, many genealogical records housed in churches were destroyed, and attempts to reconstruct Op den Graeff's genealogy were made in the late 1600s in Germany. One reconstruction, entitled "The Works of Gabriel Bincelint" and printed in 1662, had Op den Graeff descending from the House of Graben von Stein through Wolfgang von Graben.[18] Another reconstruction had Op den Graeff descending from the House of Cleves, including possibly through John II, Duke of Cleves' "kindermacher" lines.[19] Archeological evidence, such as a coat-of-arms in his possession, suggest a descent from the House of Cleves.[20] The family legend thus equates him as being an illegitimate descendant from the House of Cleves paternally who was given his mother's maternal name from the House of Graben von Stein.[21]
