von Stedingk is a name borne by several Swedish noble families of German origin, two of which still exist.
All branches of the von Stedingk family are derived from the Pomeranian noble family Steding, whose roots can be traced to the first half of the 14th century, although according to Swedish genealogist Gabriel Anrep, the family may have originally come from Westphalia. Through the Swedish conquest of Pomerania in the 17th century, some members of the family, like Major Christopher Adam Steding (1715-1792), enrolled in the Swedish army. Both of his sons were later naturalized into Swedish nobility.
Christopher's oldest son, the field marshall and ambassador General Curt Steding (later Curt von Stedingk) (1746-1837) spent almost his entire military career in Swedish service. On the 1 of November 1797, he officially became part of Swedish nobility and was given the title of baron three years later in 1800. The current family is divided into one comital and one baronial branch.
Curt's younger brother, Admiral Victor Steding (later Victor von Stedingk) (1751-1823) was also naturalized into Swedish nobility, with the same name as his brother but as head of a separate family. This branch ended in 1914 with the death of Victor's grandson Carl Edvard Styrbjörn von Stedingk (1854-1914). [1] [2]
