Family

[edit]

Heir to an outstanding family history, well-documented throughout the centuries, thanks to relatives, dedicated organisations and a list of notable historians including Rapin-Thoyras, Otto von Cossel, Laurent has direct links to more than 30 countries worldwide[8] :

Denmark

[edit]

Laurent is of Danish descent. The Good or Good of Gürre (af Gurre i Danmark) is a Scandinavian and Danish family originally from Sjælland (Zealand). Together with its allied families the Deconinck, Duntzfelt, Nathanson and Monod, they formed one of the most prominent families of the Golden Age of Denmark.[9][10][8]

Laurent is heir of the Danish merchants and shipowners Frederick de Coninck and Christian-Willelm Duntzfelt. Many family portraits or commissions to Danish most famous artists of the time (including Jens Juel and C. W. Eckersberg) are displayed for the public at the Royal Castle of Frederiksborg or the National Gallery of Denmark in Copenhagen.[11]

Dehn’s Palace in Copenhagen

Laurent’s ancestors’ architectural legacy is also very well preserved and many of the family’s palaces and mansions in Sjælland and Copenhagen are known as noteworthy places of the kingdom : Moltkes Palæ[12], Dehns Palace, Dronningård Estate, now Næsseslotet[13] in Holte, Marienborg (Danish Prime Minister’s official residence) or the Danish « Good House » Gurrehus Slot[14] in Danish (Gurre Castle), or Good Castle, residence of John Good of Gurre and later of Prince George of Greece, uncle of the late Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburg. Gurre is known for having inspired the History of Hamlet and the ruin of King Valdemar’s Castle are still visible next to the Good Castle[15].

The family had a great position under the reign of king Christian VII and Queen Caroline Mathilde, who was influenced by the French enlightenment and Struensee. De Coninck introduced the idea of redistribution in the country, leading to the creation of the Fund for the Poor, supplied by infringement and public fines money.[16][17][18]

Despite being a family of reformed or Anglican confession, the wedding of William Good and Hannah Nathanson (greatx3 grandparents of Laurent) connected the Good with the Jewish European community : the father of Mrs Good, Mandel Levin Nathanson was an economist, publisher and advocate for the Jewish cause in Denmark, editor of the Berlingske Tidende, now Berlinske, one the oldest operating newspapers in the world, to which he added international informations for the first time in the periodical publication domain.[19]

Laurent is descendant of a long line of Danish Consuls and honorary Consuls including his great-grandfather Frederick Good af Gurre in Antwerpen (see Belgium and Iceland). Notwithstanding the foreign origin of the family’s name (England, The Netherlands…) it remains the only Danish family to have a dedicated monument called the Column to our Motherland in Holte.[9]

The preservation and publicity of the family history as well as of the Sjælland region’s is managed in Denmark by the Alfred Good Fond[20], settled in Holte.

From his father side, he is descendant of Patricians families[21], and of the di Marsigli of Bologna (many family archives are possession of the Vatican)[22][23]. His great-grandfather was Commander of the Order of the Crown of Italy. Laurent speaks Italian and has many relatives living in the country. The life and family of his greatx2 aunt, Sophie Good, wife of Consul A. Fog of Denmark in Sicily, has inspired Italian author Domenico Barillà for his novel ‘La casa di Henriette’[24][25] [26]. Her remarkable Carrara marble tomb in the Palermo cemetery is a noticeable example of the 20s style.[27]

The Netherlands

[edit]

Good-Engels, he is descendant of the Engels family of Amsterdam and Rotterdam.[28] He is also descendant of the Crommelinck[29] and related to Wigbold Crommelin, Governor-general in Suriname, and of the first Dutch settlers of New Amsterdam (now New York - Manhattan)[30] and to Theophilus Cazenove.  Because of his father’s family Huguenot confession, and the moving borders of the Netherlands in the past centuries, many of his ancestors from different countries of origin were born, raised or died in the Netherlands : Rapin, De Coninck.[16]

[edit]
