Sir Rickard von Friesendorff, 11th baronet, died 21 November, 2023.
The von Friesendorff baronetcy, of Hirdech, Sweden, is a title in the Baronetage of England. On 4 October 1661, Johan von Friesendorff, Swedish ambassador to the Court of St James, was created a baronet by King Charles II. In 1665 he was appointed Riksfriherre by the Emperor Leopold. Although the baronetcy was considered to have become dormant in 1669 after the death of the 1st Baronet due to his descendants living in Sweden, use of the title was maintained by the family; the 11th Baronet, Rickard Fredrik Knut von Friesendorff, was admitted to the Official Roll of the Baronetage in 2018.
The 11th baronet was born in 1937, and succeeded his father Baron Sir Claes Fredrik Wilhelm von Friesendorff, 10th Baronet (1903-74), in 1974 though he did not establish his claim (after the baronetcy had long been dormant) until 2018. He married 1stly, 1965 (div 1972) Siv Monica Eriksson, and married 2ndly, 1986, Eva Birgitta Neilru. His son from his first marriage, Johan Fredrik von Friesendorff, succeeds as 12th Baronet.
