Variations Last name: Casbahr,Edle von Caspar,Kaspar,Kasper
The Caspar family, also known under the noble name of Edle von Caspar, is a family of ancient origins and high nobility, whose roots go deep into the fertile and prestigious soil of Bavaria. His nobility is attested and solemnly confirmed by the presence of his coat of arms in the authoritative and renowned “Armorial Général” heraldic register, drawn up by the famous heraldist J.B. Rietstap, a work that collects the regalia of the most illustrious houses in Europe. Furthermore, we cannot remain silent about the existence of another branch of the Caspar family, whose name derives from the homonymous town of Caspar, a small but historically significant hamlet located near the town of Boppard, along the majestic banks of the Rhine. As proof of the presence of this family in the region, a document dating back to the year 1724 is preserved, attesting to a contract concluded between the communities of Karbach and Weiler. It mentions a certain 'Johanß Casbahr', who held the office of mayor of Weiler, and is mentioned with his home, called 'Mirck', a tangible sign of his relevance within the social and administrative fabric of the time. There are many people who, over the centuries, have borne the name Caspar with honor, leaving traces of their work in various fields. These include “Johann Caspar”, who lived in the year 1441, who held the prestigious function of chaplain in the city of Schaffhausen. In 1513, we find mention of 'Sabellus Caspar', who was involved in criminal justice issues in the city of Schwäbisch Hall. In 1579, another member of the family, 'Beat Caspar', distinguished himself in the city of Xanten as a fervent promoter of the spread of the baptismal name 'Kaspar', linked to the Protestant Reformation. It is also noteworthy that, over the centuries and depending on regions and local linguistic influences, the surname Caspar has undergone some orthographic changes, taking on forms such as 'Casbahr, Kaspar' or 'Kasper'. These changes only testify to the diffusion and adaptation of the name through ages and territories, without however affecting its noble heritage and its solid membership in a lineage of great prestige and ancient tradition. ... ...
