The Oer family is an old and distinguished German noble family from Oer-Erkenschwick, Westphalia, who can trace their noble lineage up to the 12th century.
History
The first known member of the family was Henricus de Ore, mentioned as a witness at a trial. The progenitor of the family was ritter Godefridus de Uore (knight Gottfried von Oer), who is documented in 1204, asserting his herediary rights in the office of a local Mayor. Members of the family distinguished themselves as courtiers, writers and artists. On 12 November 1677 they got the title of Baron, which was also recognized in the Kingdom of Prussia in 1844. On 13 June 1906, they were also granted the title of Freiherr in the Kingdom of Saxony.
