Kasper Fryderyk Broel-Plater: Plater Genealogy

Notes	Gen.VIII According to Hylzen he was "heir to the Weissensee estates and Kyoma in Swedish Livonia and was a special envoy from the local states of Livonia to King Charles X, King of Sweden, in 1678." According to Pulvis, Kasper (Gaspar) was a corporal (?) in the year 1622, came back from Holland in 1625 and established himself at Weissensee and at Madditen in 1635 and died as a lieutenant-captain in January 1642. This information is slightly erroneous because on the 22nd day of November 1687, Kasper-Frederick obtained a grant or perhaps the award of "hereditary rights" to the Weissensee estate. In 1689 he pledged these estates to the assessor (?) Rosenthall. He died childless and all of the estates after him were to be inherited by his uncle Fabian. Because Fabian Plater was not living at that time, the estates of Kasper-Frederick were obliged to pass by inheritance to the sons of Fabian. One of these, John (Gen.VIII), was heir to what had been held from Weissensee in the year 1695 (infra) and therefore Kasper Fryderyk must have died later in that particular year. According to Pulvis, the wife of Kasper Fryderyk (Gaspar), was Elizabeth von Rosen from the branch at Hochrosen, who, together with her six-month old son, died in the plague which raged at Weissensee in 1655 and, according to other sources, in Riga in 1656. Birth: a. 1622, 1625
