Bibran-Modlau
Bibran-Modlau (Bibran, Bibra und Modlau, Bibra-Modlau) was a Silesian noble family which was raised to Reichsfreiherr (Imperial barons) 1624. One source (''Origines familiae Bibranorum in Francia orientali utraque Silesia et Lusatia ...)'' reports that the family descends from a Sigmund von Bibra (Franconian Bibra family) who traveled to Silesia in the 11th century, however the different coat of arms casts doubt on the connection. The description with the published (c. 1860) print of Schloss Modlau describes the Bibran family as having split off from the Franconia Bibras five hundred years ago. The family appears for the first time with Sigmund von Bibra, who apparently followed Agnes von Babenberg, granddaughter of Emperor Henry IV and bride Duke Władysław II had come to Silesia from Franconia. The family was divided into the Modlau line in the Bunzlau district , Profen in the Jauer district and Kittlitz-Treben-Woitsdorf in the Bunzlau district and Goldberg-Haynau. By 1480 ...

Bibra Family
The House of Bibra () was one of the leading ''Uradel'' (ancient noble) families in Franconia (northern part of Bavaria) and present day Thuringia from the mid-15th century to about 1600. Later on the family rose from ''Reichsritter'' (Imperial Knights) to ''Reichsfreiherr'' (Barons of the Holy Roman Empire). After the Holy Roman Empire dissolved, they were made ‘’Freiherr’‘ (Barons) of Bavaria and Bohemia. History The earliest references to the family include a document of Bishop Otto of Bamberg from the year 1119 of a ''Rupertus de Bibra''. In 1151 a ''Pertholdus (Berthold) de Bibra'' and his sons ''Pertholdus (Berthold)'' and ''Tagino'' are referenced in another document. The family prospered in numbers, wealth, and influence in the 15th century and early 16th century. By the time of Siebmachers Wappenbuch of 1605, the family is listed as the most important family of Franconia under the rank of Freiherr. By 1600 most of the family died off without hei ...
