V.}}) is an organization for descendants of the dynastic [[Von Graben]] family. These include the [[De Graeff]] noble house with its lines ''De Graeff, De Graaff, Graeff'' and ''Gräff'', descendants of the Austrian nobleman [[Wolfgang von Graben]] († 1521). The [[Op den Graeff]] family with his main lines ''Updegraff'' and ''Updegrove'' is part of the Family Association as an associated family because, according to their tradition, they also descend from Wolfgang von Graben. The Association also offers memberships for the former princely and countal von [[Orsini-Rosenberg]] family, which also comes from the House of Graben. The Association was created in 2013 and officially registered in [[Austria]]. ==History== The idea for the creation of a Family Association was thought up by the cousins Senator Andreas Gräff, Doris Bogne
