Lothar v. Richthofen, again

I suppose one reason I am interested in "the other Richthofen" is because we share the same date of birth (not year, of course--I'm not that old! ). Anyway, I know comparatively little about him as compared to his more famous brother. I know I read somewhere that after the war he married, but divorced. Does anyone know if he had any children? I know there is at least one collateral descendant through their youngest brother (I presume), but nothing more than that. Does the family still use the title?

Lothar Freiherr von Richthofen and his wife Doris Gräfin von Keyserlingk had two children. A daughter and a son. Don't know about the daughter, but the son lived in Sweden a few years ago, don't know if he is still alive.

The son of Bolko von Richthofen, Manfreds and Lothars younger brother, is called Manfed von Richthofen too. He was born in 1934 and from 1994 - 2006 he was the chairman of "Deutscher Sportbund" (german umbrella organisation for sports)...

Thank you

Thank you very much for the information, Immo. I know it is posted elsewhere here, but in German, and though I can speak a little German and work out some in print, I am by no means an expert. I am glad the blood lives--
