История
[ редактировать ]Источник
[ редактировать ]Самый ранний исторически доказанный ОП Ден Грэфф, Герман Оп ден Грефф (1585-1642) жил в Алдекерке (Клев), недалеко от границы с современными Нидерландами. Некоторые считают, что герцог Джон Уильям, герцог Юлих-Клевес-Берг, имел моргановый брак с Анной Оп ден Грефф (Ван де Алдекерк), с которой у него был Герман. до 1585 года [ 3 ] [ 4 ] Никаких существенных доказательств какой-либо связи между Оп ден Грефф и герцога никогда не было представлено, поэтому, скорее всего, что связи не существует. Согласно другой семейной традиции, ОП Ден Грефф, как и в семье голландцев де Грефф , произошел от фон Грабена через Вольфганг фон Грабен , [ 5 ] [ 6 ] которые были упомянуты в Голландии между 1476 и 1483 годами. [ 7 ] [ 8 ] [ 9 ] Грефф был голландским орфографией грабена в 14 и 15 веке. [ 10 ] Эти источники не задокументированы и не могут быть проверены. Другой источник сообщает, что семья OP Den Graeff, возможно, пришла из Фландрии . [ 11 ]
Крефельд
[ редактировать ]
Оп -ден Греффс изначально были меннонитами , и, как полагают, пришли из соседнего Aldekerk [ 12 ] в католическом герцогстве Юлича около 1605 года, чтобы избежать преследований. В то время Крефельд был исключением из графства Моерс и под властью принца Оранж , стационарного ставкого, Республики Объединенные Нидерланды . В отличие от лидеров Юлиха и близлежащего электората Кельна , ставтолдеры Нидерландов были терпимы к несоответствующим религиям. В результате Крефельд стал точкой убежища для преследуемых меннонитов в 17 веке. Оп -ден Греффс под руководством Германа Оп ден Грефф , как и многие из меннонитов Крефельда, были льняными ткачами, другие родственники, практиковавшиеся в различных профессиях, таких как умирание. Некоторые из этих семей продолжили эту оккупацию позже в Джермантауне , штат Пенсильвания. Оп-ден Греффс оказал влияние на круг меннонитов, который превратился в квакер частично около 1679-1680 гг. В 1683 году трое братьев -братьев Грефф Дерик , Герман и Авраам , внуки Германа, а их семьи мигрировали в Соединенные Штаты. Они среди тринадцати семей, Оригинал 13 , первая закрытая группа немецких эмигрантов в Северную Америку, часто называемая Джермантаун, Филадельфия, Основатели из Пенсильвании корабля , которые прибыли на конкорд 6 октября. [ 13 ] [ 14 ] [ 15 ] У трех операционных ден Греффс был еще один брат, Адольфус Ден Грефф (* 1648), который не присоединился к эмиграции, но обосновался возле Кобленца до 1680 года. [ 16 ] Его внук Джон Уильям (Йохан Вильгельм) ОП Ден Грефф (1732 - между 1800 и 1804 годами) иммигрировал и в Пенсильванию. Их потомки присоединились к их имени в Updegrove.
Америка
[ редактировать ]In Germantown, two of the Op den Graeff brothers, Derick and Abraham, signed along Francis Daniel Pastorius and Gerrit Hendricksz the first organized religious petition against slavery in the colonies, the 1688 Germantown Quaker Petition Against Slavery. Abraham op den Graeff was the only one of the three brothers who had descendants. Some of them continued in or returned to the Mennonite faith and were found in the Montgomery County congregations of Skippack and Boyertown until modern times. Then the family split up into a lot of different spelled names and family branches, Opdegraf(f), Updegraf(f), Uptagraff(t), Updegrave, Updegrove, Updegraph, Uptegraph, Upthegrove, Upthagrove and Ubdegrove. Pennsylvania Governor Samuel Whitaker Pennypacker was the fourth great-grandson of Abraham,[17] while US-president Theodore Roosevelt was the sixt great-grandson of "bishop" Herman op den Graeff.[18]
In 1802[19] Nathan Updegraff, a great-great-grandson of Abraham, settled north in Mount Pleasant, Jefferson, Ohio.[20] This branch belonged to the 19th-century Quaker families of that state[21] and produced a lot of Quaker Ministers and elders. The son of Nathan, David Benjamin Updegraff (1789-1864) of that family was a conductor and one of the leaders of the Underground Railroad. He was one of the first outspoken anti-slavery men, and voted with the first liberty party from conscientious convictions. His house was the home of antislavery advocates and temperance lecturers also a station on the Underground Railroad.
Coat of arms
[edit]
There is a reference about the Op den Graeff glass paintings of Krefeld, with a description of Herman's possible, but not proven, coat of arms, found in the estate of W. Niepoth (op den Graeff folder) in the archives of the city of Krefeld, who noted a letter dated November 17, 1935, from Richard Wolfferts to Dr Risler: "Saw the Coat of Arms glass pane in the old museum: 'Herman op den Graeff und Grietgen syn housfrau' or the like. Coat of Arms - In the sign a silver swan in blue. Helmet decoration (I think): Swan growing."[22]

Whether the original source documentation is sufficient to justify these claims is unknown.
