  1. I am german. My father told me, that some decades ago, in an inn in my village there was a trouble between a Mr. Graf ( count) and a Mr. König ( king). A man, Mr . Kaiser ( emperor) went to them and said: Be quiet! There is someone higher than you!

  2. A note from Germany! I would translate ,von ' with , comming from ... castle' . But there are few commoners also with a ,von' in the name.

  3. Every german nobleman ( few exeptions ) has a , von ' ( coming from) in name. In 19th century Bavaria the ,in' was used to not confusing the nonruling branch of House Wittelsbach, as far as i know. When in Germany a nobleman calls himself , von und zu' this means , he still owns the namegiving Castle.

  6. The german title is Markgraf, not Margrave! In medieval Germany a Markgraf was basicly a borderland ( Mark) count, with some rights of a duke ( Herzog)
