Thank you David,I noticed that members of this family were most likely diplomats...Maybe that's why they collected titles in Austria,Prussia,Russia...So,in the end they were Princes in Russia and Prussia...is there any genealogy of them?They seem to be a large family...

Field Marshal Fabian Gottlieb von Osten-Sacken was created Russian prince in 1832. He had never married, and the Russian princely line became extinct on his death in 1837.
