Hola Raul,
the answer is yes. However, it's a little bit complicated...

First there were two brothers...

I. line (Karl Wilhelm, 1788-1841)

here there were two brothers:
Kraft Willy August Karl Johann Georg, *Breslau 23.4.1903, gefallen Memel 10.10.1944
Mark Wilhelm Eduard Alfred Staats, *Weißwasser, Oberlausitz, 14.8.1906, gefallen bei Ciepielow unweit Radom, Polen, 8.9.1939, Hptm.

II. line (August Jakob 1791-1870)

now it's getting tricky...

August Jakob's second son had many children. His ninth was

Fritz-Erich Georg Eduard v. Lewinski gen. v. Manstein, * Berlin 24.11.1887

v. Manstein's son was

Gero Erich Sylvester, *Breslau 31.12.1922, gefallen am Ilmensee, Rußld., 29.10.1942, Lt.

Two of v. Manstein's older brothers have sons on the record:

Harald Eduard Max Karl Kurt Staats, *Briesen, Westpr., 18.11.1890, Oberst a. D.
Heinz Maria August Erich, *Oldenburg 11.1.1909, vermißt seit Juli 1943 im Osten

August Jakob's third son also had several children. His thirdborn was father to

Werner Alfred Wilhelm, *Thorn 23.9.1896, Oberst a. D. (in russ. Kriegsgef. [1954!]

and

Volker Wilhelm Eberhard, *19.7.1901, Oberst a. D.

His fourthborn was father to

Horst Walter Eduard, *Frankfurt a.d.O., 27.8.1900, gefallen Breslau 13.4.1945

His fifthborn was grandfather to

Friedrich-Wilhelm Kurt Ernst, *Potsdam 26.6.1924, vermißt im Osten seit Jan.1945

Hope this helps
