Early Origins of the Lempp family

The surname Lempp was first found in Wuerttemberg, where the name contributed greatly to the development of an emerging nation which would later play a large role in the tribal and national conflicts of the area.

In later years the name branched into many houses, each playing a significant role in the local social and political affairs.
