From the Archives of the Family Khuen-Hedervary Note: This is a computer translation of the original webpage. It is provided for general information only and should not be regarded as complete nor accurate. http://name.loos.com/page2-Johann_Hedervar.html Repository: MOL = Hungarian national archives The original collection "Archives of the family Khuen Hedervary' is divided into three parts: 1. into the rear of the family Viczay 2. that the family Draskovich and 3. that the family Grassalkovitsch. In the conflagration by 1956 considerable damage were caused to the existence of archives. & The family Viczay originated, as the families Kanizsai and Ostffy, from the stem of the Osl. It received their name from the town Vicza in the Komitat Sopron. 1645 teh family were raised into the rank of the barons, 1723 into that of the counts. Viczay Janos married 1651 Katalin Hedervary, the daughter of Istvan Hedervarys, the last male representative of the family Hedervary. Through her the Komitat Gyoer lying Castle Hedervary became his and also was then the constant residence of the family. Viczay Mihaly I. gave around the center of the 18. Century the order to convert the lock of the castle into a baroque style. Afterwards he created 15,000 volumes comprehensive library and a coint collection whose existence covered about 10,000 pieces. This collection has its son, Viczay Mihaly II. further developed, and has it from scientists, who belonged to the most scholarly European circles, put into a list. He also let these catalogs publish. In addition he collected also art articles (z.B. antiquity vases, statues and Gemmen etc.. ) as well as paintings. Around the castle he designed a famous English garden. The painting collection from Viczay Mihaly II., has been 2 years after his death, in the year 1833 in Bratislava, publicly auctioneered !! After the early death of his 2 sons its daughter Karolina (10.10 1789) only remained as an inheritance. Whereby the family Hedervary with the family of Khuen, (Antal II., by Khuen) got connected. Viczay Mihaly II., had the following children: Mihaly, b. 1777, married with Elisabeth Dittmeyer of Russfelden ( Ruscove, Slowakei ) death unknown Ferenc, 1780 -1836, married with Countess. Amalie Zichy de Vasonkeö Karolina 1789 -1839, married with Countess. Antal II., of Khuen Mihalys II., son Ferenc had 3 children, but however they are not in a direct follow-up: Karoly b. 1802, married with Countess. Maria of Khuen Adolf, b. 1804 ? Heder 1807 – 1873 married with Countess Alexandra Zichy de Vasonkeö Gyula Karoly 1854 anscheindend jung verstorbven. Antonia, b. 1812 – 1903, married with Countess Pal Esterhszy Among the children of the Viczay Karolina Hedervary were the prominent, son count Carl Khuen Hedervary, as well as its younger brother Antal Khuen. Of these famlies possessions and papers only winy remainders remained. Count Carl Khuen was among emperors Franz Josef already in 1870 a Hungarian Secretary of Defense and from 1883 to 1903 a Hungarian Prime Minister and Ban of Croatia The Family Viczayak The family first only had barons, later then the family belonged to the counts. Future generations do not remember it because of their possessions in the Komitat Tolna. (from the Komitat Tolna and from the neighbouring Baranya moved in 19. Century approximately 80 Loos to America !!) But also: The ancient family of the counts Loos and later also de Hedervary has with the family of the counts Kanizsai and later with the Ostffy the same origin. The head of the family tree has build the Osl, who in the 13. century the rank of a Ispan (Prime Minister? ) held. Descendant is Beled 1216 -1236 Paharnokmester = mouth-gives, a royal, hereditary office to held. Its son calls itself Beled Vicai de Lozs - 1237 -1291 The Osl family, build approximately 1237 in Csorna, west Hungary, the family monastery of the Praemonstrartenser (Augustinerorden). After the mother monastery Praemonte in Laon = Loon = Loos. We must probably look for the still early origin of these Osl family in the Frankish family d` Òisy of d`Avesnes and Hainault, conde et de Leuze. The first of this family, Fastre d` Òisy, was around approx. 1050 Vogt of Tornay, the first king city of the Frankish Merowinger kings. The family of the D ` Oisy belonged to the large karolingischen Loos family, were also the English queen Philippa of Loos, the wife Edward III., belonged. The surname of the Viczay de Lozs in Hungary, comes from the village Vica, which lies in the district Sopron. Viczay Adam got the rank of a baron in the year 1645. Its son Janos married Katalin Hedervary, which is a descended from the Esterhaszy family from her mother site . Janos by this marriage Hedervar in the proximity of Gyoer got the place. In addition belonged to the dowry of its wife the place Ireg, south of Tolna in southwest Hungary, already in the proximity to Mohacs. Count Mihaly II., became to 26.7.1756 in Hedervar - Gyoer born and died to 18.3. 1831. Here now it is erroneously written that his parents would have been count Job (Jacob Christian) and Esther Ebergenyi - that were however parents of its father, Viczay Mihaly I., the job Christian 1734 already died!!! Thus becomes over Mihaly II., continues to tell: He was educated humans. It concerned itself gladly with archaeology, but its favourite topic was the Numismatik (muenzkunde). It studied also jurisprudence before and was for a while in national affairs active as a lawyer. Archaeology interested it however much more, and so it its occupation became as a lawyer too boringly, and it withdrew itself to Hedervar, where it its already rather large, extensive Muenz - and archaeology collection increased industriously. The museum of Hedervar became the most beautiful private collection of the country, whatever foreign scientists visited. 1826 was present in this collection already 11 of,433 Greek and 13,411 Roman coins and coins, of which 1243 pieces were gold coins. Also Italian scientists write z over this museum, thus.B Carolin of Milan. Also Sestini D. in three papers over this museum wrote. The rule property of the Viczay - family in Ireg. Viczay Adam already began 1691 to in-settle families into the village Ireg still before the final convention with the Esterhaszys. We remember, its nut/mother Katalin Hedervary Ireg of the Esterhaszys had inherited, after their nut/mother originated from this family. Ireg lies south of Szehesfehervar (chair way castle). Before chair white castle lies the place Vapalota, which title got Adam after a battle against the Turks (where it had outstanding fought) lent: Adam von Vapalota. The settlement is nearly purely Hungarian with catholic majority, but there is also an important percentage of reformed ones. The constantly becoming larger settlement attained 1787 the rank of a small market town. At that time it had already more than 1000 inhabitants. With support of the family Viczay 1766 also the church were built. The today's lock was probably built 182O in the klassizistischen style. 1862 sold the family Viczay their property possession to the family Esterhaszy, which continues to sell this again fast. That Lock from then on often changes its owner. Like that were z.B. those Schossberger, the family white Manfred and the Famlie Kornberger the owners. The frequent owner change caused the frequent change. Nevertheless the building kept its klassizistischen style, although from the front changes in later style directions are recognizable. After the nationalization 1945 the building a school and a pupil home became later. The Hedervary - family. Short history. Both Kazai and later historical writers assume that the brothers Volfer (Wolfger) and hederich coming from Germany at present king Geza II., to Hungary immigrated. Geza geb. 1130, gest. 1161 were the enkelkind of king Almos of Hungary and Ban von Kroatien and the German count daughter Sophie of Loos. Already Gezas I. Woman Sophia Loos was likewise a German count daughter from the same count sex. Those Brothers Wolger and Hederich came of likewise a German Count sex from shark castle, Germany, from the region Hanau with Frankfurt/Main. The Hanauer and Hainburger count from Germany came of to one Collateral line of the Rieneker Loos count, which had more than 3 centuries in the sense valley (Spessart) between Fulda and peppering castle their homeland. Simon de Geza writes in the Gesta Hungarorum 1282: Wolfger and its brother hederich (Heinrich) of Wildon, Styria or Honnsburg, with 40 riders come, built a concluding from wood and a dwelling at the mountain Kiscen. I take at Koeszeg = Guens. Marcus de Kalt writes 1358: Then Wolfgerus with its brother hederich, which from the counts von Hainburg descended, in Germany, with a heavy Kavallerie of 300 riders came. 1157: Wolfger created a Benediktiner monastery at the mountain Kizsen and surrounded it with 10 wine gardens, 12 hooves by fields and pastureland, 57 people lived in 24 accommodations. 1198 in Guessing, Hungarian Nemetjuvar, by Wolfger, is established a Germanic fortress, a new fact Castrum. It is continued to report on the Hedevar: Wolfer got the mountain Kuezsin with environment, Heder the Dunaziget of the Hungarian king, as gift, lying in the environment of Gyoer. After newest research they settled themselves at present the ruler Geza II. in our homeland, Hungary, on. That proves also the deed of donation Volfers (Wolfgers) from the year 115O in which it on the mountain Kueszin in honours of the virgin Maria a monastery furnish let. Count Heder, which moves forward the family Hedervary became 1146 Ispan (Prime Minister? ), then between 1150 - 1157 he was a yard judge of Geza II., late became it the Paladin of king Istvan III., During this time he probably built the castle Heder, which lay in the northeast part of the today's castle. The castle remained centuries long through in the possession of the family Hedervary. Their burgherr is in particular mentioned in a document of 1395: "castle of the Magister Johannes, son hederich of Hedehuara" Kis Peter and Cheylye Domokos became later, 1455 Fodor Laszlo the castle gentlemen and the castle became as Castrum - Hederhuara and later than Castrum Hedrewara mentions. At the beginning of of the 16. Century Istvan Hedervary let establish southwest from the medieval castle on the place also today of the visible lock, a mehrstoeckiges Renaisance - lock. That Son of Hedevary Ozsvat, Ferenc II., 1521 Burgherr of Nadorfehervari, neglected the Hedevary castle, on which the castle Heder and which belonged to at the Laki Bakics Pal came. Bakiscs Pal has in the course of its fights with the Hedevarys in December. 1534 the medieval castle, as well as the new lock destroy!! As however Hedervary Istvan 1541 to Ferdinand of Austria, got he crossed his possession again back.It probably terminated 1578 the new building and the enlargement of the destroyed lock. The daughter of Istvan Hedervary Katalin, married 1685 Viczay Janos de Loos, which came in such a way into the possession of castle and country Hedervary. Viczay Mihaly I., and its son Mihaly II., have with the change of the lock, 1755, the castle ditch filled up and the lock direction the west increases. That They made yard smaller and in place of the former ditch a dreistoeckiges, building with a trakt established. At all 4 corners of the building they established one square tower each. On the southern side of the yard over the gate they established a dreistoeckigen trakt. They course-bricked and to have a splendor staircase built the open courses of the lock. With the change of the front front they course-bricked the Renaissance windows and formed thus a uniform picture. Count Viczay Heder de Loos et Hedervary, the enkelkind Viczay Mihaly II., died 1873, with which also the family that Viczay de Loos et Hedervary in the direct male trunk had become extinct. How it looks now, was the last inheritance of the castle and the possession of the Hedervary nevertheless the son of Ferenc, the brother of the Karoline, the later of Khuen, and the inheritance of the Hedervary could change only now into the hand of Carl count Khuen Hedervary!! Heders inheritance, which studied painting also in Italy, began now Carl count Khuen Hedervary, its nut/mother Karolinde, the sister of hederich had been. The Viczay de Loos et Hedervar belonged thereby officially to the past. Since its arrival 114O Heder and Wolfger and the Osl family 12OO had passed to the 7OO years. Both sexes were thus longer in Hungary and late Austria Hungary active, how the Habsburger!! The counts of Loos from the Family tree of Charlamagne Few humans, like z.B. I, with this topic will have concerned myself so in detail, and so I would like to deal here briefly with it. This Family tree constructs itself as follows: Charles the large (Charlamagne) Ludwig I. the pious Emperor Lothar I., Lothar I., daughter Irmgard marries with count Giselbert of the Maasgau (Romeo and Julia : Count Giselbert had the emperor daughter to Spain kidnapped) Albert of Maasgau Baudry of the Maasgau & connection to the Mark counts von Friaul: Mark count Eberhard von Friaul marries the daughter emperor Ludwigs of the pious one, Gisela and practically essentially governs, standing behind the emperor house, the large realm of Karl of the large one. Eberhard's brother Balderic , count von Betuwe has a son: Ricfried of praying Uwe, first Comte de Loos. Ricfried of Betuwe's nut/mother, (is probably the earlier Konkubine, emperors Lothars I., called Doda). Ricfried of praying Uwe is called Dodo!!!!! Its Daughter N.N. marries now stated the above Count Baudry of the Maasgau, so that it comes to a further relational relationship between the Karolingi emperor house and the Friauler Mark count!!. Dodo Ricfrieds son, Nevelung of praying Uwe marries its niece and the count line of the Loos, sits down now: Over Rudolf of praying Uwe, Comte de Loos away, over Count Giselbert von Loos, geb. 1OOO, and its sons Arnulf I., count von Loos and the Loos count, petrol of Duras Of Arnulf I., counts von Loos, descend the Rieneker Loos count One Nebenlinie are the counts von Hanau and Hainburg in Germany = like also the Hedervary in Hungary. The French line d` of the Oisy (Hungarian Osl Ostffy) Irmgards from Reginar, the long neck, the brother, whose father was Giselbert of the Maasgau, come. Of Reginar the French line that comes Loos Count off, like z.B. Philippa Loos, the English queen, those from the house of the Avesnes (Anjou) and Hainault. In addition belong also, to Karl I., of Anjou, the Hungarian king with his son Ludwig I., just as Hungarian king. In the master data list of those of Loos and Hedervar become also descendants of count Arnulf I., aforementioned, like count Arnold IV., of Loos , Chiny and Agimont with his Mrs. Margareta von Vianden and their children, like also those Count: Dietrich II., of Heinsberg and Bright mountain of Loos and Chiny The count Gottfried II., of Heinsberg Loos and Chiny, as well as a further Count Gottfried von Loos and Heinsberg. It cannot be excluded thus that those Viczay de Loos in Csorna, west Hungary, which was merged in the Osl sex federation there, not also their genetic roots in the group of sexes, the Loos count, the descendant Arnulfs I., to have can. The Mark counts von Friaul The family of Eberhard von Friaul, also Unruochinger mentioned, belonged already 2 generations before Eberhard von Friaul, to the closest familiar ones and advisors. the Karolingi emperor house. Eberhard von Friaul was a co-signatory of the will of Karl the large one and he wrote also the contract of Verdun 843, as the realm of Karl of the large one was three-divided, from which the 3 large nations, Frenchman, German and Italian came out. Eberhard mediated to totally zerstrittenen brothers, Lothar II, Ludwig the German and Karl the bald one of France between that. But in vain!! As finally the central realm, king Lothar II., between west Franconias and east Franconias, became Eberhard's son Berengar I was divided., King of Italy. But in principle it was Eberhard's request to receive the realm of Karl of the large one in its size when its felt "mental son" it. It was the only one of its time, which could reconstruct of a Karl's large idea large Frankish realm unit. , the largest possessions in the realm, among other things also the Maasgau in their possession, in addition, large possessions in Alemanien and Italy had the family of the Unruochinger, late Mark counts von Friaul after the emperor family. They were thus also the guarantor for the fact that itself first Loos Counts in the Maasgau and its environment, like Toxandrien, Ostverant, Brusthem to establish could. Thus the Loos count owes not only Karl the large one their existence, but also the Mark count von Friaul. The relationship of the Viczay de Loos et Hedervar . The Esterhaszys was probably the oldest acquaintance and used the Viczay de Loos et Hedervar. They lived probably completely in the proximity of the Viczay family, how also those from Hedervardefinieren is, but as a planned temporary Okkupation of westHungarian regions and was south new settler lake resident, where there is the place Esterhasz. Those 1602 geb. Viczay EH de Loos Pal, baron Esterhaszy married. 1685 Katalin Hedervary, whose nut/mother from the family of the Esterhaszy descended, married Visczay Janos de Loos. Finally those marries 1812 born Viczay Antonia de Loos et Hedervar again a count Pal Esterhaszy! Those Viscay de Loos live on thus also genetically in the still flowering Esterhaszy family. & Those Family Croatian Family Draskovich de Tragostjan, originated from Dalmatien and established themselves already promptly in Hungary. In Hunyad we both already meet in 19. Century, those Loos and already the Draskovich on. Dalmatien belonged centuries long to Hungary. That1727 born Viczay Mihaly I., de Loos if Hedervar et, the countess Theresia Draskovich finally married. Those Draskovich live today mainly in Guessing, and/or. District Guessing in the castle country. & IE Croatian Family Grassalkowitsch came with the large Croat immigration into 16. Jahundert to Sopron and might have come there already soon with the Viczay family into contact. The Grassalkovitsch was a very efficient, talented family and brought it up to the imperial treasurer in Vienna. Viczay Mihaly II., de Loos et Hedervar marries Anna Grassalkovitsch, their children Mihaly III., Ferenc Karolina, the nut/mother Carl count Khuen - Hedervary are. With the son Heder of the Ferenc (son of the Mihaly II., and the Anna Grassalkovich) the Viczay de dies Loos et Hedervar out. The Viczay family married often also well, if we of Katalin Hedervary, Theresia Draskovich and Anna Grassalkovitsch to think. In addition, its daughters well marries, like EH and Antonia de Loos to the family of the Esterhaszy. For long time the Viczay family must have been a very wealthy one. It left the Hungary however with its Hedevary museum probably one of the most valuable treasures and collections of the country. Those Me to my inquiries and my letters and documents never answered Hungary up to now probably threw away!!! Johann Loos, 2513 Moellersdorf, Adlitzerstrasse 25 17.May 2003 |
