Ficquelmont family
The Ficquelmont family is a European aristocratic dynasty. This nine-century-old〔See below: references to ''Gerard de Fiquelmont'', knight, in 1030 then to ''Pierre de Fiquelmont'', knight, before 1277/''The French Nobility Book'' by Régis Valette (2001) has traced its continuious proven references to at least 1386.〕 comital family originated in the Duchy of Lorraine where the Ficquelmonts have been lords of the name and knights from as far as 1030 and barons from as far as 1277. The family rose to opulent prominence as it became comital in the early 14th century. One of Lorraine's most illustrious lineage, the Ficquelmonts have spread across Europe as the Duchy merged into the Habsburg Empire then into the Kingdom of France and once again after the burst of the French Revolution. As a result of which changes, the family has been divided into several lines which have ranked among the prominent noble families of the Holy Roman Empire, Lorraine, Austria and Hungary, France, Russia, the Netherlands and Belgium. Since 1948, the family has lived on through cognatic lines.
==Origins==
According to the legends, the House of Ficquelmont traces its origin back to the Merovingian times, some authors〔such as Georges van Santern in ''Moniteur de la Noblesse Belge'' (''Book of the Belgian nobility''), Brussels, 1890〕 have listed its members since "''Conrad de Ficquelmont, who they say lived in 781''".〔"''Conrad de Ficquelmont qu'ils font vivre en 781''"Quote from the introduction paragraph (the one listing its mythical origins) of the House of Ficquelmont's article in ''l'Intermédiaire des chercheurs et des curieux'', Volume 47, p.810, Paris, 1903 ()〕 However, the family -comital since the 14th century〔House of Ficquelmont's article in ''l'Intermédiaire des chercheurs et des curieux'', Volume 47, p.810, Paris, 1903 ()〕- is formally known since the early 11th century with the named Gerard de Ficquelmont, knight, in the year 1030 and the complete proven genealogy begins with the descendance of Erard de Ficquelmont, knight, before 1277.〔() in La Belgique héraldique, Charles Poplimont,1866, Brussels〕
Because it is a Lorrainer family, it owns a dual nobility, both French and German. According to the classes of the French nobility, it is part of both the ''Noblesse chevaleresque''〔''knightly nobility'' nobility of antique military origin, known before the year 1400〕 and the ''Noblesse d'épée'' (''Nobility of the Sword'').〔or ''noblesse de race'' or ''noblesse ancienne'': the ''traditional'' oldest nobility, heir of militaristic traditions〕 According to the classes of the German nobility, it is part of the ''Uradel''〔German term referring to nobility tracing back to at least 1400〕 and ''Hochadle'' (with the form of address ''Hochgeboren'' then ''Erlaucht'').
The family's estates were originally surrounding their ancestral castle set in the ancient locality of Ficquelmont,〔now Thumeréville〕 in the current French region of Lorraine . From there the family has risen within the Lorrainer, Holy Roman, French and Austrian nobilities and eventually spread all across Europe following the French Revolution. Therefore, the ten-century-old〔 high nobility Lorrainer family ranks among the most prominent high nobles of the Holy Roman Empire, Lorraine, Austria and Hungary, France, Russia and Belgium.〔() ''The House of Ficquelmont is one of the oldest, noblest, most honoured family of the ancient Lorrainer Chivalry'' in La Belgique héraldique, Charles Poplimont,1866, Brussels〕〔() ''(The St.Petersbourg's Ficquelmont Palace) provided the setting of two of the most famous Salons of the period (1830's), reigned over by Ficquelmont's wife (granddaughter of Prince Kutuzov)'' in Personality and Place in Russian Culture, Essays in Memory of Lindsey Hughes, Simon Dixon, 2010, History〕〔() Member of the Association of the French nobility〕〔() Member of the Belgian Nobility〕
