Schauman

 ( Finnish Noble Families ) 

The Finnish ancestor of the family is lieutenant colonel Henrik Johan Schauman (1649–1730) of the Turku County Cavalry Regiment, who came from the Ogre region in Livonia and moved to Sweden in 1662. He was naturalized in the Swedish nobility in 1686 by Charles XI of Sweden and his family was introduced to the House of Knights in 1697 as a nobleman, number 1287.

Today's living branches are all descendants of his grandson, noble-muse Berndt Otto Schauman (1738–1805). In connection with the organization of the Finnish House of Nobility, Schaumans were marked there in 1818 as a noble family, number 96. Descendants of the family moved to Argentina in the late 19th century and in the 1920s to France; the family still lives in both countries. Alternative noble families have subsequently re-elected the right to represent the House of Knights. Schaumans are also living today in Paraguay and the United States.
