Von Clargen FELDTBERG

Diederich von Pelden named Cluyte is mentioned in 1450 as a lay assessor at Moers, and he sealed with the crowned helmet on the coat of arms of the family, as per the Moers Archives. He married Clargen von Feldtberg, daughter of Johan von Feldtberg and his wife, Neese. They are mentioned in several documents. See Enclosures No. 26, 27, 28, 29. In a document of 1458, said Neese von Feldtberg transferred some estates to her eldest son, Johan, and renounced her usufruct. The other children are mentioned: Dederich, Luydema, and Clara; and a certain Grete Cluyte as being the housewife of Dederichs Weitgens von Feldtberg. regarding said Grete Cluyte, information is not to be found in the archives, either regarding her dowry or any other information. Therefore, one can't say whether she was a sister of Diederich and Johan, or belonged to the third generation, or to a side line. The coat of arms of the von Feldtberg family is an escutcheon divided fess; the top part being golden, the bottom part being green. In the top part, is half of a projecting squirrel; in the bottom part, five golden mountains, three and two; on the helmet, a sitting squirrel. The covering of the helmet is golden and red. There is a strange document figured on the inventory of 1612. By the authority of seven of the principal Roman Popes on St. Urbans night in 1492, Prior Johan of the Carmelite Convent of Moers absolves said Dieterich, Clara, and their children of one third of their sins. Where remain the poor ancestors, however? With the other two thirds of their sins? What a confusion of human mind. It is a pity that this document has been taken from the archives. From this marriage of Diederich and Clargen voin Feldtberg descended three sons: Friedrich, Vincent, and Johan. ¹¹⁶ ²⁸⁰
