The Schenken von Stauffenberg are a noble (see Uradel) Roman Catholic family from Swabia in Germany, whose best-known member was Colonel Claus Schenk Graf von Stauffenberg – the key figure in the 1944 "20 July plot" to assassinate Adolf Hitler. The recorded history of the family Schenk von Stauffenberg begins in Swabia in the 13th century, when the family, who belonged to the Reichsrittern (Imperial Knights), originated from the settlement Cell, where they owned extensive estates surrounding the village and the Zollerberg long before the Counts of Zollern (Hohenzollern family/dynasty) took possession of the mountain and acquired lands there. Its first known member is mentioned in 1251 as Wernherus Pincerna de Celle, who in 1255 was appointed to the ceremonial court office of Schenk (cupbearer, sommelier, butler) with the Counts of Zollern. The officeholder was in charge of his lord’s wine cellars and vineyards, and when the office of Schenk later became hereditary within the family the title was adopted into the family name. Surnames were appended according to the officeholder's place of residence, and so the family name varied between ''Schenk von Zell'', ''Schenk von Neuenzell'', ''Schenk von Andeck'', ''Schenk von Erpfingen'' and ''Schenk von Stauffenberg''. By the end of the 15th century the family’s permanent name was Schenk von Stauffenberg, which refers to ''Burg Stauffenberg'', a former castle situated by a small cone-shaped mountain of the same name between the small town of Hechingen and its suburb Rangendingen in Land Württemberg. A tradition in the family also associates it with the Staufen dynasty. The Stauffenbergs rose in the world in 1698 when Emperor Leopold I conferred upon the brothers Maximilian Gottfried and Johann Philipp the hereditary title of Reichsfreiherr (Imperial Baron). The family was later split into four branches; the Katzensteiner, Bacher, Wilflinger and Amerdinger ones. The former two became extinct during the 18th century, while a member of the Wilflinger branch was raised to the rank of hereditary Reichsgraf (Imperial Count) by Emperor Leopold II in 1791. Since the Wilflinger branch also became extinct in 1833, only the baronial Amerdinger branch remained. All now living members of the family are descendants of the brothers Franz Ludwig and Friedrich of the Amerdinger branch. Franz Ludwig was made a hereditary Graf (Count) in the Kingdom of Bavaria by King Ludwig II. Since then there exist two subbranches; one which holds the title of Count and one which bears the title of Imperial Baron. In the 16th century the Stauffenberg family acquired the castle ''Amerdingen'' near Nördlingen through marriage. Before that the Stauffenbergs were owners of Wilflingen and Jettingen. Over the course of the years further estates were added to the family’s possessions, such as Schloss Greifenstein and Schloss Burggrub in Heiligenstadt near Bamberg, the Lautlingen castle near Ebingen on the southern slopes of the Schwäbische Alb, Schloss Rißtissen some twenty kilometers south of Ulm and the ''Straßberg'' and ''Wildentierberg'' estates in Lautlingen near Albstadt. After 1918, when the constitution of the Weimar Republic abolished all noble titles in Germany and declared them to be part of the family name, the family came to have two names in order to preserve the former titles of Schenk, Graf ( Count ) and Freiherr ( Baron ) as parts of the surnames. Since the title of Schenk is considered to be of superior rank due to being a hereditary office title, it is placed before the noble title, which in turn is placed before the surname. The correct versions of the family’s surnames are thus ''Schenk Graf von Stauffenberg'' and ''Schenk Freiherr von Stauffenberg'' respectively. Two of the family’s members also served as Prince-Bishops of Bamberg (Marquard Sebastian) and Augsburg and Konstanz (Johann Franz) and thus used the title Fürst (Prince) instead of their other noble titles. ==Members of the Schenk von Stauffenberg Family== * Marquard Sebastian von Schenk von Stauffenberg (14.May.1644-9.Oct.1693) * Freiherr Adam Friedrich Schenk von Stauffenberg (07.Mar.1767-14.May.1808) married Charlotte Freiin von Harff (06.Oct.1777-13.Sep.1839) * * Graf Franz Ludwig Schenk von Stauffenberg (13.May.1801-08.May.1881) married Eleonore Gräfin Butler von Clonebough (20.Sep.1807-05.Feb.1861) * *Freiherr Friedrich Schenk von Stauffenberg * * * Anna Grafin von Stauffenberg (01.Mar.1825-03.Sep.1852) married Karl Alexander Graf von Seinsheim (15.Oct.1823-03.Sep.1852) * * * Klemens Graf Stauffenberg (12.Aug.1826-16.Nov.1886) married Leopoldine Grafin von von Oberndorff (18.Oct.1831-07.May.1919) * * * * Gabriele Grafin von Stauffenberg (24.Dec.1857-04.Jan.1946) * * * * Berthold Graf Stauffenberg (21.Aug.1859-09.Nov.1944) married Maria Theresia Frn Groß von Trockau (11.Feb.1860-19.Dec.1943) * * * * * Klemens Graf Stauffenberg (02.Jun.1885-10.Feb.1949) married Elisabeth Frn von und zu Guttenberg (20.Apr.1891-24.Feb.1946) * * * * * * Marie Gabriele Gfn Stauffenberg (born 18.Jul.1914) * * * * * * Karl Berthold Graf Stauffenberg (24.Feb.1918-01.Dec.1941) * * * * * * Markwart Graf Stauffenberg (born 07.Mar.1921) married Anna Edle von Rauscher auf Weeg (born 13.Dec.1923) * * * * * * * Elisabeth Gfn Stauffenberg (born 09.Nov.1948) married Alexander Nette (born 24.Aug.1946) * * * * * * * Marie Gfn Stauffenberg (born 31.Mar.1950) married Edward Lee Williams (born 23.Jul.1955) * * * * * * * Karl Berthold Graf Stauffenberg (born 19.Aug.1951) married Irina Lampe (born 10.Oct.1965) * * * * * * * Franz Graf Stauffenberg (born 22.Jun.1954) married Alda Balestra (born 14.Aug.1954) * * * * * * * Georg Graf Stauffenberg (born 06.Dec.1957) married Christiane Philippi (born 17.May.1963) * * * * * * * Philipp Graf Stauffenberg (born 31.Dec.1960) married1 Anette Peterson (born 20.Dec.1961) married2 Marion Stoof (born 02.Aug.1964) * * * * * * Otto Graf Stauffenberg (born 28.Oct.1926) married Oculi Frn von Lerchenfeld (born 04.Mar.1923) * * * * * * * Christoph Graf Stauffenberg (born 01.Aug.1950) married Monika Gfn von Waldburg zu Zeil und Trauchburg (born 22.Mar.1961) * * * * * * * Maria Gfn Stauffenberg (born 13.Dec.1951) married Louis-Ferdinand Graf von Zech sonst von Burckersroda (born 06.Aug.1944) * * * * * * * Alexander Graf Stauffenberg (born 10.Mar.1954) married Maria-Anna Gfn von Quadt zu Wykradt und Isny (born 08.Apr.1960) * * * * * * * Isabell Gfn Stauffenberg (born 10.Mar.1954) * * * * * Leopoldine Grafin von Stauffenberg (29.Jul.1887-28.Apr.1975) married Philipp Graf von Ingelheim gen.
