Biography

Henning Adam von Bassewitz. (-) (aka. Monsieur de Bassewitz)

Baron, and sometime Lord Chamberlain to Karl I, Duke of Brunswick-Lüneburg.¹ I haven't been able to find any further information about Bassewitz but he was almost certainly a close relation of Lütke Cuno Wolfradt von Bassewitz (1728-1796), Hauptmann of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel, son of Ludolph Friedrich von Bassewitz and Magdalene Sybille.

Life with James Boswell:

Boswell visited the Lord Chamberlain upon his return to Brunswick on August 8, 1764.

Notes:

Note 1: Boswell on the Grand Tour (vol 1), p. 51
