Treschow (Dano-Norwegian Family)
Treschow is a family originating in Denmark and with branches in Norway and Sweden. The family name means "wooden shoe-maker" and the family later counted many merchants in the 17th century and priests in the 18th century. A member of the family, Michael Treschow, bought the status of untitled (lower) nobility in Denmark in 1812, although Norway, where he was resident, abolished the concept of nobility only a few years later. Members of this family have been industrialists and landowners, notably in Vestfold. General history Origin The family may be followed back to Niels Hansen († 1593), who lived in Næstved, Denmark.

(, German: "ancient nobility"; adjective or ) is a genealogical term introduced in late 18th-century Germany to distinguish those families whose noble rank can be traced to the 14th century or earlier. The word stands opposed to ''Briefadel'', a term used for titles of nobility created in the early modern period or modern history by letters patent. Since the earliest known such letters were issued in the 14th century, those knightly families in northern European nobility whose noble rank predates these are designated . and families are generally further divided into categories with their ranks of titles: ''adlig'' (untitled nobility), ''freiherrlich'' (baronial), '' gräflich'' (comital), ''fürstlich'' (princely) and ''herzoglich'' (ducal) houses. The latter two are also referred to as ''Hochadel'' (High Nobility).

Næstved has several adult education centers, five elementary schools - and has at least one of each type of the four upper-second-level education centers.
