It's completely unclear to me whether Adolf was a "von". He is often referred to that way in English-language websites (beware of WP clones), but curiously German-language sites almost never use it. I don't have any print sources to check. Curiously, the modern EB cites him in their Karakoram article as "Adolphe de Schlagintweit", which is just bizarre. Stan 14:58, 11 Feb 2005 (UTC)
