Die Familie Faber

We want to thank everyone who helped us with finding our ancestry. Especially all those fellow researchers from the branches of our family tree, as well as the employees of the archives, registry offices, parish offices and churches, whithout whom we would not have been able to create this family tree.

Special thanks go to Mr. Spatke, Mr. Wachsmann, Mr. Margonski, Mr. Köhler, Mr. Fischer as well to the parish priests Kloß (Herbsleben), Lange (Schmiedefeld) and Schröter (Quedlinburg). Another special thanks to Dr. Heinz-Rudolf Keil, Mr. Reiner Schuchardt and Mr. Werner for their support and the infos submitted specially for central Thuringia.
Mr. Andreas Jens Jahrow did support our efforts to gather info for the families of glassmakers Schmidt and Heinz in the area around Fehrenbach. More thanks also to Mr. Johann Schorr for infos provided for Lichtentanne and Schmiedebach. Particular thanks also to Mr. Volkmar Edwin Großmann, who helped us out with the ralations between the oldest branches of the families Großmann and Faber. Mr. Jürgen Gramenz and Mr. Michael Scheunemann helped with our ancestry in Pommern. Special thanks also to Mr. Christhard Flothow and Mr. Dirk Backhaus for their support with the lineages out of Herbsleben. Thanks as well to Mr. Ulrich Zigan from Dortmund, who helped with the lineages out of Hamburg and Frankfurt/Main. And lastly we want to mention Mr. Karl-Heinz Schröder from Lübeck, who gave us loads of infos for the lineages between Lübeck and Grevesmühlen.

In the more immediate family we want to thank aunt Ruth Brunneck, our greataunt and our greatuncle Ruth and Hans Fuhrmann as well as both our greatcousins Peter Kirchner and Karl Korn, who contributed thanks to their own ancestry research with loads of ideas, documents, images and a lot of other material for this family tree.

Of course thanks also go to the authors Albert Brödel, Emil Herold, Gerhard Greiner, Dr. Albin Schubert, Rudi Greiner-Adam, Ludwig Heinz, Dr. Herbert Kühnert and Erich Müller-Andörfer, who with their research and books about the families in the area of Coburg-Neustadt-Sonneberg-Neuhäser as well as the glass makers contributed a lot of info to this internet family tree. At the same time thanks also go to Mr. Andre Gressler, whose webpage saved us from a lot of research and typing.

We also want to thank the members of Bauersachsgesellschaft for all their contributed infos. Of course many thanks to the members of the different mailing-lists, which gave lots of infos and ideas for this internet family tree.

Please inform us of any errors or mistakes you found! We are also always happy for new data.

Doctor of law (1756) and Professor (1765 - 1792) of Uni Jena
1769 and 1775 principal of Jena university














The Schiller-Gartenhaus in Jena, Schillergäßchen 2

 
            today                                       and                 back in the day (drawing by Peter Siebert Jena-Zwätzen)      


This was the summer residence of Prof. Johann Ludwig Schmidt (1726-1792)
and his son Prof. Ernst Gottfried Schmidt (1763-1794) in Jena and

was sold in 1797 by their heirs for 1050 Taler to Friedrich Schiller
Between 1878 and 1888 the family of Ernst Abbe lived there.
At the time Abbe was director of the observatory and a professor for astronomy.


Our (8x) 7xGreatgrandfather lived here
The inn "Zum Schwarzen Adler" [the black eagle] in Jena, Holzmarkt 14



Johann Martin Sonntag (before 1709 - 1753) and Anna Christina (Häßner) (1706 - 1771)
were the innkeepers and owners. In the center of this picture from 1910
you can see the later build, that was contracted in 1879.
It was called "Forelle" [trout] in times of the GDR and was a restaurant specializing in fish dishes.
In 1995 the now empty house was razed and the
Hotel IBIS errected in its place. In a document from 1731 Anna Christina was mentioned
in connection with an examination of their drinking mugs [being smaller than advertised].

Our ancestors 15 generations ago - The family of Peter Hettling from Osterwieck

Peter Hettling
city councilor, -treasurer and iron trader



Peter Hettling (1541-1611)
1573 mentioned in the Knochenhauer-Innung
He was killed on March 8th (or 11th) 1611 outside the city gates.




St. Stephani Osterwieck: Epitaph and portrait of the Hettlings family from there (currently seperately displayed in protective boxes in the tower ascent)

   

The large wooden epitaph was donated in 1619 by the family
following the murder of the head of the family. It consists of three pictures and two inscriptions.
top part, depictings Jesus in the garden Gethsemane, the middle one depicting the good samaritan
and below the family of murdered Peter Hettling with his wife Agnes and their eleven children.


Agnes Seeband
daughter of Jochen S., mayor of Hornburg



Agnes Seeband (Hettling)   (around 1550 - 1630)
In 1605 and 1620 she was incarcerated in Grüningen and Hornburg following slander about her.
Her two sons Peter and Gerhard, both lawyers,
defended her and could reestablish her honor completely.





Famous patrician families among our ancestors



The family of Uslar   in Goslar   (from 14 generations ago)





Gerhard Hettling (above in the Epitaph, third adult son) married in his 3rd wedding
Hedwig of Uslar widowed Helmold, daughter of Johann of Uslar (1547-1631).
The family Uslar was and still is a patrician family from Goslar, that was mostly
active in mining and smelting industry. Many of the family were city councilors,
mayors or held other high offices in the area of Goslar, Wolfenbüttel and Braunschweig.





The family Brandis   in Hildesheim   (from 17 generations ago)



Ilsabe Brandis, daughter of mayor Henning Brandis (1454-1529)
connects us to one of the prominent patrician families in Hildesheim.
Many generations of this family had mayors and city councilors among them and
had thus direct influence in the history of that town. This lineage
leads to further patricians in the town of Hildesheim (Breier, Sprenger, Burmester and Berner).




The family Orth   in Marburg   (from 19 generations ago)



Catharina Orth, daughter of ayor Ludwig Orth (1460-1523)
connects our ancestors to this promiment patrician family of Marburg.
Antonius Orth (Donges), mayor from 1463 until 1464 of that town, got,
together with his brothers Johann and Paul, his official document for a sigil
in a military camp close to Neuß by Kaiser Friedrich III. on June 17th 1475.
The sigil can be seen here.
On August 16th 1481 Ludwig Orth married Cuntzel (of Hessia), the illegitimate daughter of
Landgraf Heinrich III of Hessia (check also below our ancestors of nobility).





Our ancestors of nobility

Heinrich III. of Hessia (1440 - 1483)
Landgraf of Hessia-Marburg   (21 generations ago)


           

This gives us, from this point on, the same ancestors as Johann Wolfgang von Goethe.
While the connection to Goethe and his ancestors (2014 and 2015), Ludwig Orth - Cuntzel (of Hessia),
officially documented illegimate daughter of the Landgraf, is through her daughter Elisabeth, our
lineage connects through her daughter Catharina of the family of Dorstenius (Marburg). These ancestral lineages
lead through Heinrich III directly
to Karl the Great and thus into much of the high nobility in Europa of the time.
For more documented infos check:   the website of the Goethe-Genealogy






The german/baltic family Magnus/of Magnus
Johann Wilhelm Magnus   (1805 - 1854)   (7 generations ago)



This dynasty likely has swedish roots. With their migration to
Kurland they weren't officially referenced as nobility. Later, the family was partly knighted
and officially certified, originating from "würklichem, uraltem
litauischen Adel" [actual and ancient lithuanian nobility]. After their immigration the Magnus belonged to
"landischen Mittelstand" [middle class]. Many of the family connections are lost to time.
In our ancestry we are missing a documented connection
8 generations ago. In the "baltischen Ahnen- und Stammtafeln" [baltic ancestry] more infos can be gathered
about the baltic family Magnus (magazine BAST 44/2002 from page 53 on).
