Peter Melander Graf von Holzappel

== Origin, family and descendants ==
Peter Melander was born, as Peter Eppelmann, in Niederhadamar, the son of a farmer. Documentary evidence of his birth date exist. The older literature says that he was born in 1585; this was based on an erroneous inscription in his epitaph in the church of Holzappel. After his father's death in 1592, Peter Eppelman joined his childless uncle John, a secretary of Maurice of Orange, in the Netherlands. His uncle had translated the family name Eppelmann into Greek as ''Melander'', and Peter also took this name. Through the efforts of John Melander, the family was raised to knightly nobility in 1606. They then took over the name ''of Holzappel'' from the extinct noble ''Holzappel of Voitsburg-Selzberg'' family from the Giessen area.
In 1638, Peter Melander married Countess Agnes of Effern (d. 1656). With her he, had his only child, a daughter named Charlotte Elisabeth, later Countess of Schaumburg-Holzappel. She married Prince Adolph of Nassau-Schaumburg and thereby became Elisabeth Charlotte, Princess of Nassau-Schaumburg.
Melander's descendants include Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands and King Charles XVI of Sweden.
