| - Natzmer was born in Gutzmin, Farther Pomerania, into a noble family of Kashubian descent dating to 1202. He was the son of Joachim Heinrich von Natzmer, the district president of Schlawe, and Barbara von Weyer. The Natzmers of Pomerania were commemorated with the villages of Natzmershagen and Natzmersdorf near Schlawe and Labes. Natzmer was married twice, first to Sophie von Wreech and then to Charlotte Justine von Gersdorff. He had two sons from his second marriage, Carl Dubislav (died 1737) and Heinrich Ernst (died 1739). Because both sons died before their father, the Pomeranian branch of the Natzmer family ended after Dubislav Gneomar died in Berlin. Other branches of the family possessed estates throughout Brandenburg, Saxony, and Silesia; ten members of the Natzmer family served in the Fourth Coalition against Napoleon Bonaparte. One of Emperor William I's closest friends was Oldwig von Natzmer.
