VAN MARSELIS-MARSELLUS .- There are many tra- ditions regarding the racial origin of this family. A. A. Vosterman van Oven, keeper of the heraldic and geneologi- cal archives of the Netherlands, in one of his publications says: " Although the ancestors of this family known to us and belonging to the Danish nobility was born at Hamburg, it seems, however, that the family originated from some other place, very likely from Denmark. Several patrician families of this name lived in Belgium, whose coat-armor, how- ever, not only differ each from the other, but also do not show any comparison with the different branches raised to the Dan- ish nobility." J. B. Rietstap, in his " Coat-Armor of the Netherland Nobil- ity," page 364, mentions the coat-of-arms here shown and describes them as fol- YAN MARGENS 1643 lows: In silver an elephant in natural color upon a meadow whereupon are three trees; the one in the middle is placed before the elephant. This animal car- ries upon his back a tower, from which a female rises in red and seen from aside. The crest is the elephant with the tower and female. He claims them to be a coat patented to a Van Marselis, September 17, 1643.
The first Van Marselis of the Netherlands that the Amer- ican branch of the family can trace back to in unbroken line is Jan Van Marselis, born in the early part of 1500, who married N. N. van der Marek; their son, Jan van Mar- selis?, married Dina van Duffel d'Elswith; their son, Ga-

The patent of nobility reads as follows :
We, Frederic the Third, by the grace of God King of Denmark, of the Wendes and the Goths, Duke of Sleswick, Holstein and Stormarn, and Count of Ditmars, Oldenburg, Dehnenhorst, etc.
We, as well for ourselves as for our heirs, the Kings of Denmark and Nor- way, publiely acknowledge through this letter, giving notice to all men, that although we by the royal highness and dignity, wherein we are placed by the Godly will of the Almighty, also from inborn goodness and affability, always are desirous to honor all and each ones who are striving to lead an honorable and virtuous life, especially those who have truly and usefully served us during a number of years, and to our gracious contentment "or benefit " have endeav- ored to promote and to give consideration to our prosperity. We will state, however, that our royal mind is to a high degree kindly disposed, and we are desirous to grant many liberties to, and to bestow our gracious favors upon, those persons whose forefathers have led, under the rule of our ancestors, and who are leading since a number of years, under our own rule, a very honest life in the old exemplary manner, and who are endowed above others with good and noble manners, virtues, intelligence, aptness, and experience, and who have ren- dered for several years, with zeal and faithfulness, great services to us and to our Empire, all to our most gracious satisfaction and pleasure. We have also gra- ciously observed and taken into consideration the good qualities and reasonable- ness of our beloved and faithful Gabriel van Marselis, of old and honest descent, and we are convinced of the virtnes and genius wherewith he is gifted above so many others. We also took into consideration the extraordinary faithful and obedient services willingly rendered by him to our Empires and lands for a number of years, and the good services executed for ns by his ancestors and latterly his father, now resting in God's care. We further recognize the great services rendered by the said Gabriel van Marselis, in his capacity of Resident Commissary in the United Netherlands at Collinborg and at the Stravenhall grounds, so well in times of danger and also during wars, and who under all circumstances has given ample proofs to lead by his prudent and serviceable acts all his operations at the proper towns and places, to a result beneficial to us, upholding at the same time the respect due to the Empires and Royal House. Ilis ability in that direction was also demonstrated in the preservation of valuable concessions, by employing thereunto the most judicious measures. We are therefor fully convinced that he in the future will render to us similiar agree- able, faithful and useful services, whenever the occasion shall present itself. In

consequence whereof, and being anxious that our resident commissary in the United Netherlands at Collinborg and at the Stravenhall grounds, shall become aware of our royal favor towards him and in order that he will be able to enjoy and to make use thereof.
It is our pleasure, after having given due consideration to this matter and after having received good advice according to our own knowledge, to grant these special honors and privileges to Gabriel van Marselis, and we hereby ele- vate him, and also his legitimate male and female heirs, for all times to come, in the same state and degree of nobility as granted to our legitimate Lords-Para- mount and Knights-Noblemen in our Empires and lands, to whom also were ae- corded this elevation and these privileges, and we have added the names of this family to the records of Noblemen and entered them therein, as if their rank of mobility were granted to their paternal and maternal ancestors four generations past and equal as having been accorded to these ancestors in the four degrees before. In order to confirm and to remember this our royal gift, and this ele- vation to nobility more effectively, we have granted and allowed this particular grace and these liberties graciously to Gabriel van Marselis, his legitimate male and female heirs and their offspring, with the right to exchange their usual eoat- of-arms by another one, including a jewel, to represent the nobility of Marselis, and to make use thereof forever without hindrance of anyone, as well in all their writings and documents, as in their addresses, titles, seals, actions, doings, and offices nothing excepted ; and in naming and describing their present and future noble goods and possessions.
We have graciously allowed to Marselis to bear and to use the following nobleman's coat-of-arms, representing the following designs : A shield with a cross-beam, divided into four parts, above which is an open helmet with a crown painted in gold ; in the two red fields of the shield, cross-wise facing one the other, stands a man clad in armor, holding in his left hand a shield, but in his right hand one a pike ; and in the two blin fields, cross-wise one against the other, are laying two metal cannons, and above them is a gold colored crown ; in the middle of the stag-shield with a white or silver colored field stands a house whereupon is a slate roof. The shield and coat-of-arms are sustained by two lions VAN MARSELIS 1005 in their natural color standing straight, facing one the other.
By this act we elevate, make worthy, and enable the aforesaid persons to en- ter into the degree and state of nobility and to associate with the society and the members of all other liege-lords born in our kingdom and domains, with the same rights as given to those Knights-Noblemen, and we willingly allow that this family shall have the right to bear and to make use of the described eoat- of-arms, in accord with our royal authority and by power of this letter. And it is our will, decree, and our desire that the aforesaid van Marselis and his legit- imate male and female heirs and their offspring shall enjoy the same privileges accorded to our legitimate liege-lords and Knights-Noblemen, and to hold these rights forever as well in spiritual as in worldly affairs and actions, and that they shall everywhere be so acknowledged, honored, named, and addressed, to enjoy all and every grace, honor, gift, all titles, liberties, and full justice ; and to hold the right to the old and good custom of beneficial charge " religions office," and also to hold the spiritual and worldly tenure of the therefor prescribed right to accept and be charged of them in our own and in other kingdoms and domains. We empower them also to take part in the tournaments of our legitimate born
