paragraph: Hirsch Schwartzberg

paragraph: Hirsch Schwartzberg (Szwarcberg, Schwarzberg) (28 October 1907, in Vilna — 17 October 1987 in Ashdod) was a Jewish leader of Holocaust survivors () under the American occupation of Berlin.

paragraph: He was president of the Central Committee of Jewish Displaced Persons in Berlin. He controlled activities of two adjoining displaced-person camps in Berlin, in Düppel and Mariendorf. As a witness remembers, in the years of his leadership there was no riots or violence in the camps.

paragraph: All of Schwartzberg's Family were killed in the World War II German genocide of European Jews, except himself, and his wife and son. They together survived the Vilna Ghetto. A couple weeks before its final liquidation, in September 1943, they escaped its liquidation, together with a few hundred other Jews from the ghetto, by gaining a work-permit for working in Karl Plagge's hastily expanded HKP 562 forced labor camp on Subačiaus Street in Vilnius. HKP562 served a few workshops (that were spread out through Vilnius) one primary task was for the conversion of smaller trucks to use wood as fuel. At the workshop to which Schwartzberg was assigned he served as their spokesperson.

paragraph: Albeit the survival rate at HKP562 was higher than in the liquidated Vilna ghetto, Plagge and some of his more benevolent officers could not avert the outcome, and most of the Jewish workers of the HKP were latter also liquidated mainly by Ukrainian and Estonian SS in July 1944 before the Russians occupied Vilna/Vilnius. Schwartzberg, with wife and son, survived this liquidation by switching to new hiding places during the night, as their previous ones got discovered and those caught then murdered. Most of these hiding places were makeshift and often overfilled, which increased their likelihood of discovery.

paragraph: For the Schwartzbergs and other surviving Jews the subsequent Soviet occupation was a liberation. But Vilnius/Vilna, before the German invasion, was a predominately Polish and Jewish city but after the genocide in Lithuania, the Vilna Jewish society and community to which Schwartzberg previously belonged did not exist anymore. Thus after the Schwartzbergs recuperated, and as the Red Army proceeded west-ward towards Berlin, Schwartzberg and his family also left Vilnius and moved west. To the city of Szczecin in Poland, and then three weeks after the German capitulation, to Berlin. An additional important calculation in Schwartzberg's decision to leave Vilna, his hometown, was also to avoid the forced migration east of many people in Lithuania by the Soviets, including surviving Jews. For a related reason, he lied about his place of birth, as being Lodz, Poland, on arriving into East Berlin. The Soviets had the policy then of repatriating people from the Baltics, often also shipping them further east. For this reason he took the additional precaution of misinforming the Soviets about his place of birth and that of his wife and child.

paragraph: In February 1949 Schwartzberg, and his wife and son, immigrated to the United States.

paragraph: Greg Ellingson

paragraph: Greg Ellingson (born December 30, 1988) is a professional Canadian football wide receiver for the Edmonton Eskimos of the Canadian Football League (CFL). He played college football at Florida International. He has also been a member of the Jacksonville Jaguars, New Orleans VooDoo, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Tampa Bay Storm, and Hamilton Tiger-Cats.

paragraph: Section::::Professional career.

paragraph: Section::::Professional career.:Jacksonville Jaguars.

paragraph: He was signed by the Jacksonville Jaguars as an undrafted free agent in 2011. He was waived from the Jacksonville Jaguars on August 29, 2011.

paragraph: Section::::Professional career.:Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

paragraph: He was signed by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers after the release of Tyler Shoemaker on May 22, 2012. He was subsequently released by the Bucs prior to playing in any regular season games.

paragraph: Section::::Professional career.:Hamilton Tiger-Cats.

paragraph: Greg Ellingson signed with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats of the Canadian Football League on May 30, 2013, in time for the 2013 CFL season. Ellingson led all receivers in the Tiger-Cats' second preseason game against the Winnipeg Blue Bombers with two catches for 84 yards and a touchdown. His touchdown came on a 58-yard strike from quarterback Henry Burris in the second quarter. The Tiger-Cats won the game 52–0.

paragraph: Ellingson made his CFL regular season debut on June 28 versus the Toronto Argonauts at the Rogers Centre, and finished second on the team with six catches for 120 yards. The Tiger-Cats lost the game 39–34. Ellingson's first career CFL touchdown came on July 27, 2013, when he caught a 39-yard pass from Burris in the second quarter of a game against the Saskatchewan Roughriders. He went on to lead the Ticats in catches (5) and yards (114) in the 32 – 20 loss. Ellingson played in 12 consecutive games of the CFL season and was having an outstanding rookie campaign. He missed the final 6 games of the regular season with an injury, prior to his injury he was on pace for a 1200-yard season (66.6 yards per game). Ellingson appeared in all 3 of the Ti-Cats post-season games totaling 114 yards on 11 receptions, one of which was for a touchdown. The Tiger-Cats lost in the 101st Grey Cup to the Roughriders.

paragraph: His second season in the CFL was also cut short due to injury. Ellingson only managed to play in 7 of the 18 regular season games, and also missed out on the Tiger-Cats 2 playoff games. Ellingson managed to rack up 429 receiving yards on 32 catches.

paragraph: Section::::Professional career.:Ottawa Redblacks.

paragraph: Upon entering free agency, Ellingson signed with the Ottawa Redblacks on February 11, 2015. Ellingson had an exceptional 2015 CFL season, setting career highs in every major category. He played in all 18 regular season games, catching 69 passes for 1,071 yards with 9 touchdowns. In the Eastern Final Ellingson had a career day racking up 186 yards on 5 catches with 1 touchdown: His touchdown came with only 1:20 to go in the 4th quarter. On 2nd down and 25 from Ottawa's own 17 yard line, Burris flung the ball down the sideline where Ellingson caught the ball, evaded the defensive back, and ran all the way to the endzone for a 93-yard completion. The catch put the RedBlacks into their first ever Grey Cup game. Ellingson had a career season in 2016. Ellingson set personal bests in receptions (76) and yards (1,260) and was named a CFL divisional All-Star for the first time in his career.

paragraph: As a pending free agent, Ellingson had a workout with the Chicago Bears of the NFL in mid-December 2016. Nevertheless, he agreed to a two-year contract with the Redblacks on February 10, 2017: The deal was reportedly worth $210,000 per season. Greg Ellingson had another strong season in 2017, finishing first in the league in receiving touchdowns with 12, and third in the league with 1,459 receiving yards. His 96 receptions that year was the most all-time by any of the Ottawa CFL clubs. His production was awarded when he was named a CFL All-Star for the first time in his five-year career. Ellingson continued his strong play in 2018, catching 91 passes for 1,086 yards with 5 touchdowns. Following the season, on December 1, 2018, Ellingson was charged with failing to provide a breath sample. The Redblacks subsequently barred Ellingson from participating in team activities until they had time to investigate the matter.

On December 29, 2012 Aiken was promoted back to the Patriots active roster. On August 26, 2013, he was released by the Patriots.

paragraph: On October 30, 2013, Aiken was signed to the Baltimore Ravens' practice squad.

paragraph: Section::::Professional career.:Baltimore Ravens.:2014.

paragraph: Aiken scored for the first time in his career in a Week 6 game on October 12, 2014 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, catching a 17-yard touchdown pass. He helped quarterback Joe Flacco set the NFL record for the fastest time to record five touchdown passes (16:03). The Ravens won in a 48-17 blowout, and Aiken contributed with 2 catches for 20 yards.

paragraph: In Week 14, in a game versus the Miami Dolphins Aiken caught a 13-yard touchdown pass and was a key factor in a 28-13 win, taking over for wide receiver Torrey Smith, who was not targeted in the game at all. He caught 6 passes for 65 yards. In a press conference that followed the game, Aiken made a comment that was directed at Smith: "I got you, bro."

paragraph: In Week 17, Aiken caught a 2-yard touchdown pass to seal a win over the division rival Cleveland Browns, and the Ravens clinched the AFC's final playoff spot. Aiken's final stats for the game would be 2 receptions for 13 yards.

paragraph: In the Divisional Round of the playoffs, the Ravens took on the number-one seeded New England Patriots, one of Aiken's former teams. Aiken scored the game's opening touchdown off a 19-yard pass from Flacco, his only catch of the game, but the Ravens lost to the eventual Super Bowl XLIX champions in a 35-31 shootout and had their season ended.

paragraph: Aiken finished the 2014 season with 24 receptions, 267 receiving yards, and 3 touchdowns.

paragraph: Section::::Professional career.:Baltimore Ravens.:2015.

paragraph: In his second year after the departure of Torrey Smith, Aiken was expected to compete for a starting spot. As a result of injuries to Steve Smith Sr., Breshad Perriman, Dennis Pitta, and Crockett Gilmore, he would end up being the Ravens' leading receiver during the year.

paragraph: Aiken scored his first touchdown of the season in a Week 4 Thursday Night Football matchup with the division rival Pittsburgh Steelers. It was off a 15-yard catch. The Ravens would win the game 23-20 in overtime, giving them their first win of the season. Aiken was the game's leading receiver with 77 yards on 5 catches.

paragraph: In Week 6, in a 25-20 loss to the San Francisco 49ers, Aiken had three catches for 22 yards and a 2-yard touchdown, which he caught while diving backwards in the endzone.

paragraph: In a Week 11 game against the St. Louis Rams, Aiken scored his team's only touchdown off a 3-yard pass from Flacco (who would suffer a season-ending ACL injury towards the end of the game) in a 16-13 comeback win. Aiken would finish the game with 5 receptions for 50 yards.

paragraph: The following week, in a Monday Night Football game against the Browns, Aiken would be a huge factor in a shootout game that came down to the wire, catching 6 passes for 80 yards and a 15-yard touchdown. On the final play of regulation, the Browns were in position for a game-winning field goal. Baltimore's Brent Urban would block a Travis Coons kick that would be recovered by Ravens' safety Will Hill and returned 64 yards for the game-winning touchdown.

paragraph: In Week 15, the Ravens took on the Kansas City Chiefs. On the final play of the first half, the Ravens ran a Hail Mary play, due to their 17-point trailing deficit, in which quarterback Jimmy Clausen lofted a pass to Aiken, who caught the ball for a 48-yard touchdown and made the game 24-14 in favor of Kansas City heading into halftime. However, the Ravens would end up being shut out in the second half and suffer their second consecutive blowout loss by a score of 34-14. Aiken, however, was the game's leading receiver, with 8 receptions (the biggest one being the unexpected touchdown) for 128 yards.

paragraph: Aiken would finish the season as one of the few bright spots of an otherwise disappointing 5-11 campaign. He had a breakout season, leading the Ravens in receptions (75), receiving yards (944) and receiving touchdowns (5), while also committing one fumble, which he lost.

paragraph: Section::::Professional career.:Baltimore Ravens.:2016.

paragraph: During the 2016 offseason, the Ravens placed their second-round tender on Aiken, keeping him around for the 2016 season. He played in all 16 games with 6 starts, recording 29 receptions for 328 yards and one touchdown.

paragraph: Section::::Professional career.:Indianapolis Colts.

paragraph: On March 21, 2017, Aiken signed with the Indianapolis Colts. He played in 15 games with seven starts, recording 15 receptions for 133 yards.

paragraph: Tabscoob

paragraph: Tabscoob was a "halach uinik" (Maya ruler) of the Potonchán jurisdiction, known for leading the Chontal Maya in the Battle of Centla against Spanish forces led by Hernán Cortés on March 14, 1519.

paragraph: Tabscoob's administration maintained commercial ties with the Mexicas and other Maya jurisdictions, especially with the jurisdiction of Chakán Putum, who—after having contact with the expeditions of Francisco Hernández de Córdoba and Juan de Grijalva—warned the Chontal to take precautions. On June 8, 1518, Juan de Grijalva landed in the province of Potonchán and met Tabscoob to whom, it is said, Grijalva gave his green velvet doublet.

paragraph: Section::::War against Xicalango in 1513.

paragraph: Between Potonchán and the island of Tris was a Nahuatl town called Xicalango, which was a major port on the Gulf of Mexico, but being different from the Maya race, had constant friction with Potonchán since the Xicalangos frequently crossed territory within the province of Tabasco. This led to a war in the year 1513 in which Tabscoob led an army of 20,000 men and defeated the Xicalangos.

paragraph: It was the custom among the natives that the defeated make various gifts to the victors. Thus, the chief Tabscoob received a large number of slaves including Malintzin, famously known as "La Malinche."

paragraph: Section::::Meeting with Juan de Grijalva in 1518.

paragraph: On June 8, 1518, the Spaniard Juan de Grijalva landed at Potonchán. With the help of Maya interpreters, he began to engage in a friendly dialogue with the natives, as well as flattering them with gifts. Grijalva asked if they would call their boss to meet and confer with him. Thus, in time, Chief Tabscoob appeared with his nobles, greeting the Spanish captain. During the talk, both figures exchanged gifts: to Grijalva, Tabscoob presented gold plates in the form of armor and some feathers; whereas Grijalva gave the Maya chief his green velvet doublet.

paragraph: Tabscoob told Grijalva of a place called Culua that was "toward where the sun set..." there was much more of that material. Grijalva in turn, spoke with the Maya chief with courtesy, admitting that he came in the name of a great lord named Charles V, who was very good, and he wanted to have them as vassals. Tabscoob responded that they lived happily as they were, and that they needed no other lord, and that if Grijalva wanted to preserve his friendship with Tabscoob, the Spanish expedition should leave. Grijalva, after stocking water and provisions, embarked on his way to Culua (modern-day San Juan de Ulúa).

paragraph: On March 12, 1519, Spanish conquistador Hernán Cortés reached the mouth of the Grijalva River. He decided to anchor his ships and enter the river in skiffs, looking for the great city of Indians described by Juan de Grijalva. Cortés landed in a place called Punta de Palmares right at the mouth of the river.

paragraph: Cortés said, by way of a translator, to some Indians who were in a boat that he and his men "would do them no harm, [and that] they came in peace and only wanted to speak with them." But Cortés, seeing that the natives were still threatening, commanded weapons be brought onto the skiffs and handed them to archers and musketeers, and he began planning how to attack the town.

paragraph: Section::::Arrival of Hernán Cortés in 1519.:Takeover of Potonchán.

paragraph: The next day, March 13, 1519, Cortés devised a strategy to attack Potonchán. He sent Alonso de Avila with one hundred soldiers who were on the road leading to the village, sent Alonso de Ávila with one hundred soldiers out on the road leading to the village, while Cortés and the other group of soldiers went in the skiffs. There, on the shore, Cortés made a "requerimiento" (requisition) in front of a notary of the king named Diego de Godoy, to let them disembark, thus issuing the first notarial act in Mexico.

paragraph: Given the refusal of the Indians, Cortés decided to attack, starting the fight. The hosts of Tabscoob and Cortes met in full combat. The forces of Alonso de Ávila arrived at the rear of the settlement, making the natives flee and consummating the Spanish conquistadors' takeover of the town.

paragraph: Section::::Arrival of Hernán Cortés in 1519.:Battle of Centla.

paragraph: On March 14, the hosts of Tabscoob, estimated by Cortes to be 40,000 men, fought on the plains of Cintla against the Spaniards led by Hernán Cortés. The Battle of Centla ensued, which would be the first major battle of the Spanish conquistadors in what later became New Spain. The power of the Spaniards' firearms and the surprise and fear caused by the appearance of the cavalry (since the natives had never seen horses and thought that animal and rider were one) eventually gave victory to the Spanish army of over 410 soldiers.

paragraph: Days later, on April 16, chief Tabscoob and his entourage appeared before Cortes, swearing allegiance and subjection to the Spanish Crown. And, as was the Indian tradition, Tabscoob gifted 20 native women to Cortés, including Malintzin, who would become a valuable weapon for Cortés in the conquest of Mexico.

paragraph: But the conquest of Tabasco was far from achieved, as the Indians often rebelled against the Spaniards. It would take 45 years of struggles and intense military campaigns, before the Spanish conquistadors could break the fighting spirit of the indigenous people of Tabasco.

paragraph: Section::::Name of the state of Tabasco.

paragraph: It is thought that the name of the Mexican state of Tabasco comes from the name of this ruler. There is a monument in the city of Villahermosa (Tabasco) dedicated to his memory.

paragraph: Ayako Okamoto

paragraph: Section::::Early career.

paragraph: Okamoto was born in Akitsu, Hiroshima, now part of Higashihiroshima, Hiroshima, Japan. In her youth and early 20s she was a softball player. She was the star pitcher on the Japanese national champion in 1971. Her club team was owned by the textile company Daiwabo, where Okamoto worked. The company owned a golf facility next door, and when she was 22, Okamoto finally decided to start playing. Although she pitched left-handed, she learned golf right-handed. She would join the LPGA of Japan Tour in 1973. Just three years later, at age 25, she won the Mizuno Corporation Tournament. In 1979 (at age 28) Okamoto won the Japan LPGA Championship, and in 1981 she won eight times in Japan and topped the LPGA of Japan money list.

paragraph: Section::::LPGA career.

paragraph: Okamoto was a superstar in Japan, but she decided to branch out and joined the American LPGA Tour in 1981. From 1982 through 1992, Okamoto won 17 times, her first coming at the 1982 Arizona Copper Classic. Okamoto was a consistent winner on the LPGA Tour, claiming four wins in 1987 (plus four runners-up and 17 top-10s) and three wins each in 1984 and 1988. In 1987, she led the tour's money list and earned the LPGA Tour Player of the Year award, the first non-American to do either.

paragraph: The only thing Okamoto did not do in the United States was win a major. She finished as runner-up six times in major championships. Her best opportunities came in 1986, when she lost a sudden death playoff to Pat Bradley at the du Maurier Classic and in 1987 when she lost an 18-hole playoff to Laura Davies for the U.S. Women's Open crown (JoAnne Carner was also in the playoff). She was in the top-10 at the Open every year from 1983 to 1987, and in the top-10 at the LPGA Championship every year from 1984 to 1991.

paragraph: Okamoto's last LPGA victory was in 1992, and 1993 was her last year to play a full or half schedule in the U.S. Okamoto returned to Japan after 1993, where she played until 2005. In addition to her 17 LPGA wins, Okamoto also won 44 times on the LPGA of Japan Tour, and twice on the Ladies European Tour. She was voted into the World Golf Hall of Fame on the International ballot and entered in 2005.

paragraph: Section::::Career.

paragraph: Section::::Career.:1977–1990: Feelings and Souls.

paragraph: While working with his own band Ugly Boys, Bachchu joined the rock band Feelings (now known as Nagar Baul) in 1977. Feelings' frontman James stated that he saw Bachchu playing guitar at a tea stall. He was amazed by the playing style of Bachchu and he asked him to join the band. In the mid-1977, he joined the band as the lead guitarist and only stayed with the band for next two years until in 1980, he got a contract from Souls, as their lead guitarist Sajed ul Alam had left the band for the United States. Bachchu was playing with Feelings in a club in Chittagong, where Souls' keyboards player Naqib Khan was present. He was amazed by the playing of Bachchu and he talked to lead singer Tapan Chowdhury about it. Both of them saw Bachchu playing in the club next day and they asked him to join Souls. He joined Souls in early-1980 and played with the band for next 10 years as the lead guitarist, songwriter and occasional singer. He had appeared on four studio albums of the band, including "Super Souls" (1982), "College Er Corridore" (1985) and "Manush Matir Kachakachi" (1987), which features the first song sung by him, "Harano Bikeler Golpo". His last album with Souls was "East and West" (1988). In the late-1990, Bachchu left Souls and went on to form his own band Little River Band, which later became famous as Love Runs Blind. He reunited with Souls in several reunion shows and has performed with members of the band like Tapan Chowdhury, Kumar Bishwajit and Naqib Khan in several shows. In 2012, Bachchu told "The Daily Star" that:

paragraph: Section::::Career.:1991-2018: LRB.

paragraph: After Bachchu got out of Souls in the late-1990, he came to Dhaka in 1991 and in January he married Ferdous Chandana, with whom he had a relationship since 1986. He formed a band named Yellow River Band in April 5, 1991 with S.I. Tutul on keyboards, Saidul Hasan Swapan on bass guitars and Habib Anwar Joy on drums. When they were performing in a club in the mid-1991, they were mistakenly called the Little River Band, which Bachchu liked and officially named his band. But, after they heard about the Australian rock band of the same name they changed their name to Love Runs Blind in 1997. In April 1991, LRB did their first ever concert in the University of Dhaka, a concert that was arranged by BAMBA, celebrating the downfall of autocratic leader Hussein Muhammad Ershad. In January 1992, they released the first ever double album: "LRB I" and "LRB II". The band's third studio album "Shukh", was released in June 1993 and is considered one of the greatest rock albums of Bangladesh. It included "Cholo Bodle Jai", which regarded by some as Bachchu's greatest work. They released several albums in the 1990s and soon became one of the most popular rock acts of Bangladesh. In 1996, they performed in Bengaluru, which was their first concert outside Bangladesh. LRB is the only Bangladeshi artist to perform in the Madison Square Garden in New York City.

paragraph: After Bachchu's death, the other members of LRB announced Balam Jahangir as their new lead singer. Bachchu's wife and daughter was not satisfied with the members of the band performing with a new singer under the name LRB. They asked the members to change the name. The band was disbanded for few days and the other members of the band along with Balam formed a new band named, "Balam and the Legacy". Bangladesh Copyright Office said that: "Bachchu is the sole owner of LRB, only his heirs can run the band with the same name." On April 15, 2019, Bachchu's son Ahnaf Tazwar Ayub posted in his Facebook account that he was "okay" with the other members of the band keeping the name, and later Bachchu's wife and daughter also agreed on it.

paragraph: Section::::Career.:Solo career.

paragraph: Section::::Career.:Solo career.:Early solo work: 1986-1988.

paragraph: While working with Souls, Bachchu had already recorded and released two album: "Rokto Golap" and "Moyna", both of which mostly contained pop rock songs. Some of the songs on those albums also contained classical music fusion and featured instrument like tabla.

paragraph: Barnim I the Good ( – 13 November 1278) from the Griffin dynasty was a Duke of Pomerania ("ducis Slauorum et Cassubie") from 1220 until his death.

paragraph: Section::::Life.

paragraph: Son of Duke Bogislaw II and Miroslawa, daughter of Duke Mestwin I of Pomerelia, he succeeded to the Duchy of Pomerania-Stettin upon his father's death in 1220; he had however to share the rule of Pomerania with his cousin Wartislaw III, who resided at Demmin. A minor when his father died, his lands until about 1226 were under regency of his mother Miroslawa from the Pomerelian Samborides dynasty. At first still a Danish fief, the Pomeranian lands fell back to the Holy Roman Empire after the victory of several North-German princes at the 1227 Battle of Bornhöved. Emperor Frederick II of Hohenstufen in 1231 put the Duchy of Pomerania under the suzerainty of the Ascanian margraves of Brandenburg, disregarding the tenure of the Griffin dynasty, and thereby fueling the long-term Brandenburg–Pomeranian conflict.

paragraph: After his cousin Wartislaw III had formally accepted the Brandenburg overlordship by the 1236 Treaty of Kremmen, Duke Barnim I came to terms with the mighty Ascanian margraves in the 1250 Treaty of Landin: he confessed himself a Brandenburg vassal and had to renounce the Uckermark region, nevertheless he reached the consent, that the fief of his cousin Wartislaw would remain with the Griffin dynasty upon his death. When Duke Wartislaw III died in 1264, Barnim I was able to unite the whole Duchy of Pomerania under his rule. He promoted the "Ostsiedlung" by introducing German settlers and customs into the duchy, established many towns, among them Prenzlau, Szczecin, Gartz, Anklam, Stargard, Gryfino, Police, Pyrzyce, Ueckermünde and Goleniów. He was also known for his generous ecclesiastical foundations, and supported the extension of the secular reign of the Cammin bishops in the Kołobrzeg area.

paragraph: Duke Barnim died at the town of Dąbie ("Altdamm"), today part of Szczecin. The Minnesinger Meister Rumelant wrote a dirge in his honour.

paragraph: Section::::Marriages and issue.

paragraph: Between 4 September 1238 and 18 July 1242, Barnim I married firstly with Marianna (d. 27 June 1252), whose parentage is disputed: she was either identified as a daughter of King Eric X of Sweden, or a member of the House of Ascania as daughter of either Count Albert II of Weimar-Orlamünde, Count Henry I of Anhalt or Albert I, Duke of Saxony. Modern historiography considers that her origins are unknown. They had one daughter:

paragraph: BULLET::::- Anastasia (b. 1245 – d. 15 March 1317), married in 1259 to Henry I the Pilgrim, Lord of Mecklenburg.

paragraph: Between 1253 and 1254, Barnim I married secondly with Margareta (b. aft. 1231 – d. bef. 27 May 1261), probably a daughter of Nicholas I, Lord of Werle and member of the House of Mecklenburg, although other sources identified her as a daughter of Otto "the Child", Duke of Brunswick-Lüneburg. Historian Robert Klempin identified her as the widow of Vitslav I, Prince of Rügen, but this seems very doubtful from a chronological view. They had one son:

paragraph: BULLET::::- Bogislaw IV (b. bef. 1258 – d. 19 February 1309), co-ruler from 1276 and sole ruler after his father's death, sharing power with his younger half-brothers.

paragraph: Before 20 May 1267, Barnim I married thirdly with Matilda (b. ca. 1255 – 20 December 1316), a daughter of Otto III, Margrave of Brandenburg. They had five children:

paragraph: BULLET::::- Miroslawa (b. ca. 1270 – d. between 23 December 1327 and 11 November 1328), married in 1285 to Niklot I, Count of Schwerin.

paragraph: BULLET::::- Beatrix (d. 1315 or 1316), married bef. 1290 to Henry II, Lord of Werle in Penzlin, son of Henry I of Werle.

paragraph: BULLET::::- Matilda (d. young, 1295).

paragraph: BULLET::::- Barnim II (b. 1277 – d. 28 May 1295).

paragraph: BULLET::::- Otto I (b. posthumously, 1279 – d. 30 or 31 December 1344).
