Attorneys investigating a legal claim in the 1880's would hardly have the final word on the ancestry of the Brandenburg family which arrived in in America in 1752.
Only the actual ancestry of Wilhelm Heinrich and Mathias can determine a royal or titled connection. Regardless of how affluent or indigent the Brandenburgs may have been upon their arrival to America, they may still be connected to the famous Brandenburgs through a cadet branch going back several or more generations.
Until we have that information, we simply do not know one way or another.
