Bibra family
Bibra family was one of the leading ''Uradel'' (ancient noble) families in Franconia (northern part of Bavaria) and Thuringia from the mid-15th century to about 1600. Later on the family rose from ''Reichsritter'' (Imperial Knights) to ''Reichsfreiherr'' (Barons of the Holy Roman Empire). After the Holy Roman Empire dissolved, they were made ‘’Freiherr’‘ (Barons) of Bavaria and Bohemia.
== History ==
Earliest references to the family include a document of Bishop Otto of Bamberg from the year 1119 of a ''Rupertus de Bibra''. In 1151 a ''Pertholdus (Berthold) de Bibra'' and his sons ''Pertholdus (Berthold)'' and ''Tagino'' are referenced in another document. The family prospered in numbers, wealth, and influence in the 15th century and early 16th century. By the time of Siebmachers Wappenbuch of 1605, the family is listed as the most important family of Franconia under the rank of Freiherr. By 1600 most of the family died off without heirs partially due natural causes such as the Bubonic plague and the number of family members who took church positions. After the death of Heinrich von Bibra in 1602, the Prince-Bishop Julius Echter von Mespelbrunn seized most of the family’s assets as part of the Counter-Reformation resulting in a 79 year lawsuit. The lawsuit (Reichskammergericht) was eventually settled with the family receiving all the properties except Burgwallbach but without income during the suit. From 1602 on there were many important members of the family but the family itself never recovered the leading position it previously had in the late 15th and 16th centuries. Between 1698 and 1772, the various lines were raised to ''Reichsfreiherr'' (Barons of the Holy Roman Empire). In later times, the family spread to the Austrian Empire, the British Empire, and the United States.
