The part in the district archives from the estate of the German colonial pioneer Carl Peters, who acquired the core area of the later "D e u t s c h - O s t a f r i k a", was mainly compiled by his wife Thea née Herbers and enriched by copies and transcripts from the Federal Archives Koblenz and the then Central State Archives Potsdam as well as by materials from the Berninghaus family - Asta Berninghaus was a sister of Thea Peters. At the beginning of the 1950s the collection came into the possession of the archives of Altena Castle. In eight boxes, the estate contains documents, correspondence and newspaper clippings, most of which relate to the disciplinary proceedings and insults brought by the colonial politician. In addition to these documents there are photos and personal belongings. In addition, the collection was supplemented by books and essays on colonial topics, in particular by and about Carl Peters. The indexing was done in 1990 by the trainee Elke Röscher. Biography: - 27.11.1856 born as son of a pastor in Neuhaus a. d.

1. the history of the collection: Like positions M 430/1 - 430/4, position M 430/5 forms a select position. It unites the personal documents of military officials (including military pharmacists and military clergymen) and veterinarians of the XIII army corr 'thus usually from the time after 1870/71, and arose at the latest in 1950 in the Reichsarchiv branch Stuttgart by the union of documents of numerous provenance offices. Around or after 1934, further files of Württemberg military officials were "incorporated" into him which the Reichsarchiv branch office Stuttgart apparently had received from the Reich Ministry of the Interior; in addition, individual clusters of concepts or copies of military service time certificates were occasionally classified as the Reichsarchiv branch office or (since 1937) the Heeresarchiv Stuttgart. With its remaining holdings, the holdings were transferred to the Main State Archives in Stuttgart in 1945. In the course of the reorganization of the holdings N 430/1 - 430/4 in the years 1971 - 1973 it was supplemented by individual documents or tufts which had been handed down so far in these holdings. In view of the insufficient state of order and indexing of the holdings of military provenances before 1870/71, it cannot be ruled out that in the course of the progressive reorganization of these archival records further personnel files will come to light which - because they were continued after 1870/71 - would also have to be classified in the present holdings. To what extent such files will be proceeded or how far they will remain with the holdings of the respective provenances, which generally close with the years 1870/71, has to be decided on a case-by-case basis. 1. to the order of the stock: The previously valid repertory of the Reichsarchiv branch in Stuttgart from September 1930, which probably indexed the holdings as the first finding aid, listed in alphabetical order the names of the persons about whom files were available. While the repertory usually indicated the date of birth and the official's position, it did not contain any information on the duration of the files and on the provenance points where they had grown up. The files themselves were arranged in 63 large groups according to the repertory and did not have any archive signatures in detail. In contrast, the current reorganization attempted to separate and record the written material grown up for one person at different provenance offices according to the provenance. Often, however, it was not possible to clarify the provenance of individually handed down documents (personal sheets; evidence of personal, service and income circumstances; qualification reports; proof of employment; calculations of the pensionable period of service; military passports; excerpts from rankings; service certificates in some of which the remains of cashed records can be seen, the provenance of which is not clearly clarified; where information about this is missing in the title entries, it is therefore usually written material of this kind.The main part of the holdings has grown up in the military offices of Württemberg. As Appendix 1 shows, however, it also includes numerous non-Württemberg military and civilian provenance sites. These files were handed over to Württemberg authorities when the officials and veterinarians concerned transferred to Württemberg services and were in most cases continued there. In order not to fragment again the personnel documents united in the inventory, however, now also not continued files remained incorporated into the inventory. To the current new listing it is to be noticed that from the first names of the officials and veterinarians only the call name is indicated, as far as necessary and possible, it became and. These additions are indicated by square brackets. Of the official positions, only the most recently reached is given; however, titles and, in the case of formerly active officers who have transferred to the military administration, the former military rank are also given. For the same reason, the wording "widow's allowance for N.N." is used uniformly in numerous therein and contained notes, even if it concerns the regulation of a pension or the granting of orphans' pensions, invalidity pensions, war allowances and the like for the widows and orphans of civil servants. The index added at the end of this section lists the subjects, places and persons covered by the title recordings, with the exception of the provenance sites where the files have grown up, and the names, titles and positions of the individual officials and their families. The collection comprises 2908 tufts (14 m). After extensive preparatory work by the archivist Herrmann, supervised by the undersigned, it was recorded from spring 1975 to autumn 1976 by Oberstaatsarchivrat Dr. Fischer, who also prepared the repertory.
