From our latest information concerning the multiple formats,transcription and handwriting styles of the SCHEUTEN manuscript we have been challenged, not only to reconstruct the two extant Op Den Graff windows, but also to reconstruct the fragments of an unpublished thesis, from the inter war period of the 1930's, when the two extant Op Den Graff Windows of 1630 of Krefeld, Germany came to the attention of Dr. Rissler and other researchers in Mennonite - Anabaptist History. The fragments of this thesis were reassembled in part as an OP DEN GRAFF - PLETGES mimeograph seen in 1963 by myself in Central Pennsylvania. Perhaps the Pro-Dutch, Pro-French and Anti-German feelings of the World Wars kept part of this thesis in limbo and out of publication.IA or LORRAINE) by combining two triangles in the 1605 marriage of one Hermen Op Den Graff Van De Aldekerk (1585 - 1642) to his Mennonite bride Greitgen Pletges De Kempen (1588 -1643). The triangle of an Op Den Graff - De La Marck - Lohengrin genealogy under the reputed name of Altena (Van Alten/Von Elten) was united with a second triangle of Pletges - Plantagenet - Pennwood genealogy under the name of Kempen (AKempis/De Kempen/Te Kempen).rk - Op Den Graff, or the straw yellow of Plantagenet - Pletges -Pennwood, or a combination of both? By analogy, in the Miller's Tale of Rumpelstiltskin, the Miller's daughter is commanded to spin pure gold from pure straw for the King. You, the reader, are asked to judge whether this Genealogical Opera of Lohengrin concerning an Anabaptist - Mennonite family of Linen Weavers in the town of Krefeld in the days of the Thirty Years War (1618 -1648) is an authentic reconstruction of the facts, and if so, which parts have been correctly woven from pure gold or mistakenly spun from pure straw?ecause of the demanding and overbearing details of this thesis, we thought it only fair to you, to share our preliminary conclusions at the outset:1585 - 1642) has been tentatively identified as John William of La Marck (1562 - 1609),who in 1585, the year of Hermen's birth, wed Jacobea of Baden-Baden(1558 - 1597). In 1592 John William of La Marck became Protestant Bishop of Muenster and the last HERZOG (Duke) of Cleves of the House of La Marck, upon the death of his father, William V of Cleves (1516 -1592). In 1599 John William of La Marck wed Antonia of Lorraine (1568- 1610). John William is listed as WITHOUT POSTERITY in the feudal succession. There appears to be a total silence on morganatic or natural issue attributed to him unless the documentation appears in EUPHEMISTIC form in the church records of birth and baptism. Any morganatic issue attributed to him while he was Graff (Count) would have been given the patronymic Op Den Graff (Of The Count) or Zu Graff (Belonging To The Count) or Van De Graff (Of The Count) or De Graff (Of Count). Any morganatic issue attributed to him while he was Herzog (Duke) would have been given the patronymic Op Den Herzog (Of The Duke) or De Hartog (Of Duke). The polyglot phrase combinations represent mixtures of German/Dutch and French/Dutch and French/German in the multi-linguistic area of the Rhine Valley.tenkirchen (German spelling), a woman somehow connected with the Village, Church or Cloister of Aldekerk(1), perhaps a former nun, whose surviving male offspring received the Euphemistic patronymic Op Den Graff (Of The Count). This Anna Van Aldekerk or Anne De Aldekerk may have died in childbirth. Her name may have been confused with the Van De Aldekerk (Of The Old Church) or with Aan De Aldekerk (At The Old Church) or with the pet name for Antonia as in Antonia of Lorraine (1568 -1610). If this Anna Van Aldekerk or Anne De Aldekerk survived childbirth, she may have still been living in the year 1616, when four noble born nuns, the three sisters Von Brackel and Sister Gudula Von Arfft, were living in the Mennonite home of Hermen Op Den Graff in the City of Krefeld under the jurisdiction of the Protestant House of Orange and the Electorate of Bonn. Perhaps in 1616, the four noble born nuns attended her deathbed as well as the deathbed, in 1615, of Hermen's Mennonite mother-in-law, Alet Goebels Pletjes, widow of Drissen Pletjes of the City of Kempen, mother of Greitje Pletjes Op Den Graff (1588 - 1643).thought the Anna or Anne in the Aldekerk name was an abbreviation or pet name for Antonia as in Antonia of Lorraine (1568 -1610), who in 1599 finally became the second noble born wife of John William of La Marck, the last Duke of Cleves. The Lorraine/Lotharingia/Lohengrin connection with the Lohengrin Swan Seal on the Op Den Graff windows becomes very tempting to pursue. However, Antonia of Lorraine as the legitimate, feudal and last Duchess of Cleves would not have had any trouble having and of her morganatic offspring elevated to the level of feudal or noble born issue, since she herself was recognized as a legitimate Princess of Lorraine. We therefore, believe that Anna Van Aldekerk or Anne De Aldekerk was a separate personage, of a more humble origin, almost lost in the drama of recorded history.extant window portrays the Graff and Graffin of Altena in their Marriage/Peace Treaty of 1546 (the year of Luther's death), wherein,the Graffin, the Catholic Princess, Mary of Habsburg (1530 - 1584) is seen making her oath of faith at the ancient court of Altena to her Protestant husband, the Graff of Altena, the Duke of Cleves, William V De La Marck (1516 - 1592), the brother of Anne of Cleves (1515 -1557) who in 1540 became the forth wife of Henry VIII of England (1491-1547). The Graff and Graffin of Altena were the parents of at least seven children, including John William De La Marck (1562 - 1609), the last Duke of Cleves of the House of Marck, a cadet branch of the House of Bouillon (Boulogne), a branch of the Lohengrin family, whose origins predate the Crusades and (in some forms of the legend) go back to the claimed sovereignty over the lands of the Rhine Valley.

On the American side, there are the family trees of Updegraff, Updegrave,Updegrove and their myriad branches of re-spelling. On the European side there are the family trees Van De Graff, Op Den Graff, Zu Graff and their fascinating re-spelling and roots in other languages such as Van Der Graff (Dutch) and De La Comte (French). Op Den Graff has been translated as Above the Brook (Gravel, Stream Bed or Mill Stream) and Of The Count. Zu Graff has been translated as At The Brook and Belonging To The Count. Many of the Counts were Millers (Mill Owners).The Mills, Millers and Mill Owners were all literally At The Brook. Hence, the association and the confusion of the Counts and Commonersof Millers and Merchants and Noblemen.e of this Graff (Count) was named Hermen Op Den Graff (Hermann Op Den Graeff) and his name could be translated as Lord-Man Above The Brook or as Lord-Man Of The Count. In 1605 in the City of Kempen, this Hermen registered as Hermann Zu Graff (Hermen Belonging To The Count) in his marriage to Grietje Pletjes (Margaret Weaver). This Hermen became a linen merchant and a leader of the Mennonite Community of the City of Krefeld under the jurisdiction ofthe Protestant House of Orange. In 1616, this Hermann Op Den Graeff presented an invoice of money to the Monastery of Meer (Moers) so that four noble born nuns (Three sisters Von Brackel and Sister Gudula Von Arfft(2)), who were living in his Mennonite home and being clothed by him, could live in the Monastery of Franciscan Nuns in Krefeld. In1637 in the minutes of the Reformed Consistory of Krefeld, this Hermann Op Den Graeff is called Der Hiesigen Mennisten Herrn Bischoff (The Local Mennonite Lord Bishop) which the letter of Karl Friedrich Von Frank (1972) calls "A designation which was very rarely used by Mennonites(3)."rsonage, or with a morganatic title of paternity (a patronymic), or with a public title of state (an office or rank) under the feudal system? We are probably dealing with all three situations in the documents united in one person. This one and the same Hermann (Lord-Man) is Hermann Van Der Graff, Hermen Op Den Graeff, Hermann Zu Graff and perhaps Segneur De La Comte. With this strange combination of facts, Mennonites and Monasteries and Reformed Consistories, Noble-Born Franciscan Nuns living with Mennonite linen weavers in the Calvinist City of Krefeld under the jurisdiction of the House of Orange and the Electorate of Bonn, we are now ready to examine the two extant windows of 1630 A.D., with the first window displaying the statement: Hermen Op Den Graff Und Greitgen Sein Hosfrow Ao 1630 (Lord-Man Of The Count and Margaret His Housewife Anno 1630).eacher of the Mennonite community who is known by name.

Oddly for a prosperous and religiously ascetic merchant's family able to put stained glass windows in their house which stood for a very long time, almost half of his eighteen children did not live long enough to see age two; most of those who died did not live to see age one.

Two stained glass windows were in Herman Op den Graeff's house in Krefeld; from the time when he lived there, according to the windows themselves, and features on the windows, hymns on the windows, and a fantastic argument by Glenn Wayne MIller (http://) about them, present critical early evidence of the emotional character of the Op den Graeff family. Miller says that the stained glass windows "had been" preserved in the Kaiser-Wilhelm Museum from 1894. It appears very questionable that Miller and Sholder have ever seen the windows or complete pictures or drawings of them, or even of the recent Mennonite thesis he tries to reconstruct. isn't, and I don't want to give Niepoth a reason to shoot me, who had been in touch with the Mennonite historians who wrote the thesis that Miller has apparently seen only fragments of. He has a complete set of references after his presentation, but I can't find one for Nieper's book. he people who currently privately own them in I think Germany wrote to me. Miller often refers to the Scheuten manuscripts as a partial source, but tells us nothing at all about the Scheuten manuscripts; not who wrote them or where they came from or how they turned up. He states that several copies of them exist and they contain differences, further, each has plainly been added to by other people. He doesn't say whether these manuscripts are the source of his interpretations of the stained glass windows, though from the other article he wrote in the fall 1997 issue of Krefeld Immigrants that appears likely. the other emigrant Krefeld families. They present copies of the actual genealogical charts from the Scheuten Manuscripts, showing that the Scheuten Manuscripts do claim the same lineages for Herman and his wife that Miller uses the stained glass windows to support; they are therefore the original source of that idea. The charts provide no evidence or sources at all for a single thing on them, and neither MIller nor Irene Jones present any evidence from the manuscripts. Neither of them tell the reader who wrote the Scheuten Manuscripts or any of their history beyond the fact that they have clearly been altered over the years in not easy to discern ways. Since Irene Jones appears both to be a careful and thorough researcher and has a reputation for being one, and since her goal was to bring her readers up to date on ALL of the current research on the links between the Op den Graeff and other families and those charts contain some rather remarkable notions about that, as well, for which no other evidence has been found, I find it reasonable to conclude that the author and origin of the Scheuten Manuscripts is unknown, and the manuscripts themselves don't include any evidence in support of the genealogical claims they make or the info they present (like where did the approximate dates of birth for Herman's children most esp Hillekrin come from?) that Jones left out in her excitement over the notion that Herman and his wife were royalty. who had done research in them had provided her with.

But it looks like it may actually have been his son Abraham (1707-1789) who "began" it!

He presents a case that "Hermen Op Den Graff...was a Morganatic (or natural son) of John William De La Aarck (1562-1609), the Graeff Von Alten (Count of Altena.) This particular John William De Law Marck is listed as the younger son and heir of William V of Cleves (1516-1592) and Mary of Habsburg (1530-1584), who was the Princess Imperial, ...daughter of the Holy Roman Emperor, Ferdinand I of Habsburg (1503-1564), niece of Charles V of Habsburg (1500-1558), the Holy Roman Emperor who presided over the sufferings of the Reformation."

He puts geometric shapes together from the window to come up with symbols of the different parties to his theory, and calls one of the "triangles" that of " Pletges-Plantagenet-Pennwood". Plantagenet is the dynastic name of the Norman kings of England. The argument appears fantastic and crazy. shop of Muenster, though only "EUPHEMISTIC" evidence that he ever had natural children, "The Morganatic mother of Hermen Op Den Graff has been tentatively identified as Anna Van Aldekerk (Dutch spelling), Anne De Aldekerk (French Spelling) or Anna Altenkirchen (German spelling), a woman somehow connected with the Village, Church or Cloister of Aldekerk perhaps a former nun, whose surviving male offspring receved the Euphemistic patronymic Op Den Graff (Of the Count), four noble born nuns lived in the Mennonite home of Hermen Op Den Graff in the City of Krefeld, and Anna or Anne in the Aldekerk name could have been an abbreviation or pet name for Antonia of Lorraine, who was John William of La Marck's second wife! Graff (count) would have been given the patronymic Op Den Graff (of The Count) or Zu Graff (Belonging to the Count) etc. I simply strongly doubt that that is the case, he'd have either been given a name that reflected his father's, or given a different name altogether. He also points to some idiosyncrasies of the pictures in the stained glass windows. I think that, like some idiosyncrasies in the hymns in the stained glass windows (assuming they are translated correctly), they probably point to very odd things in Herman Op den Graef's character. of the Blessed Virgin Mary appear on the first window of a Mennonite family of linen weavers in the town of Krefeld, Germany under the jurisdiction of the House of Orange?" (The last part of that isn't inconsistent, there were Catholics around, a granddaughter of Herman's married one and became my direct ancestor. And note the presence of nuns in his house.) "Why does a seal of a multiple Dukedom with a figure wearing a crown of nobility appear on the second window?" (I think this could possibly be religious symbolism, these authors consistently misinterpret mystical religious symbolism as code pointing to Herman's and his wife's noble births.) te swan was the ancient Lohengrin Coat of Arms inherited by the Count (Graf, etc) and Duke (Herzog) of Cleves (Kleve) from the ancient House of Altena (Alten). The Swan appeared on the Schwanenburg Castle of the House of Cleves."

He further thinks that flax is linguistically the same word. Somewhere in all of this, he admits that the name "Op den graeff", in addition to meaning "of the count", means "of the stone". Graeff means stone. And he says it is believed though not proven that Stone ws the surname of Herman's father. In English Stone is certainly a common enough surname, and "At a stone" was a common surname at one time.pied and translated a number of times, that the existing copies of it differ substantially, and one cannot tell how much in them is the product of later "interpretation". Miller says that they contain some sort of outline tables, and hints that they have to do with the German nobility. with some tendency to mental health problems, was a religious mystic, who drew an awful lot into his Mennonite faith, including Catholic, noble and royal symbolism. This author admits that most of it can be interpreted as religious symbolism, much of it extremely mystical; mystical abstract symbols for the Trinity, for instance. original dialect, but certainly the translation provided of the phrase "one does great honor to me" in the hymn on one of the stained glass windows suggests that a greatly overblown view of himself was part of his faith. And the author of the stained glass window site is a fully worthy descendant of this man. One thing that is not the case, though, is he was trying to make out Herman Op den Graeff to be crazy; therefore it is reasonable to think this translation is made the way he or the person who translated it saw it.

Since Irene Jones appears to be a careful and thorough researcher and has looked very hard for evidence linking these families, in fact, I'm told she was previously a reporter, I think that no other sources for this exist. Irene states that surely the sources once existed, but I find it suspicious that none are cited. den Graeff was the son of nobility and grandson of a Habsburg princess and his wife was a Plantagenet, discussed above. No sources given for this, either, unless they cite the stained glass windows, that part isn't clear. The authors of that article certainly mention the Scheuten Manuscripts enough times. In the Fall 1998 issue of Krefeld Immigrants, it turns out that the Scheuten Manuscripts were produced by some member of the Scheuten family sometime between the mid-17th century and 1892, when they are first mentioned by Samuel Pennypacker, and the "original" copy was found in the possession of a member of the Scheuten family in 1929 and may have been no older than 1929 as that was the date on it. Three copies of it in Germany now exist, and the two versions of the pedigree of Herman's family above demonstrate the substantial versions between them. apparent whether this version of the Scheuten manuscripts gives two versions of Herman's parentage, one version having him the morganatic son of a count, or if the two copies of the Scheuten Manuscripts differ entirely on Herman's parentage! I wonder what is the reason for at least seven or eight of the eighteen children to have failed to survive their first two years of life in such a well-off family? This was very unusual when reasonably good care was given children unless there was genetic disease usually affecting both parents, as happened, for instance, with the royal lines.
