Another set, the Orlovits family, was with a group of mummies found in 1994 in a forgotten church crypt in Vac, Hungary.
And another on display is a 17th-century nobleman, Baron von Holz, who apparently died during the Thirty Years' War in Sommersdorf, Germany.
The mummies also include a South American woman with a tattoo on each breast and one on her face, a woman who had tuberculosis, a child who had a heart condition and a youngster with a facial tumor.
The mummies are both natural and intentional and they often come with as many questions as answers, said Heather Gill-Frerking, an anthropologist and forensic archaeologis

After contracting pneumonia and then suffering circulation failure the sick child died and was wrapped in linen and buried with an amulet hung around its neck.
Now the baby's mummified corpse, known as the Detmold child, is to go on display in the biggest exhibition of mummies in the world.

More than 6,500 years ago in Peru, this tiny baby's brief battle for life finally came to an end.
The child, no more than 10 months old, had a serious heart defect and suffered from growth problems.
