    Zepelin, Ferdinand von


    Recommended Posts

    Zepelin, Ferdinand Friedrich-Wilhelm Constantin Melchior Leberecht von
    * 12. April 1886 in Groß-Lichterfelde bei Berlin
    † 6. November 1962 in Hannover

     

    Note that he is "Zepelin" with one "p", which was the original name of the family, who are Mecklenburg Uradel. The Württemberg counts descend from this family but use the spelling "Zeppelin". The various Zepelin family members are often misspelled, as "Zeppelin" is a more well-known name due to Ferdinand Graf Zeppelin and his airships.
