The district of Bonn was founded in 1816 by the mayors of Bonn, Godesberg, Hersel, Oedekoven, Poppelsdorf, Sechtem, Villich and Waldorf. Since October 1, 1887, the city of Bonn has been a new district of the county; from April 1, 1904, the rural communities of Poppelsdorf, Kessenich, Endenich and Dottendorf were united with it. From 1 October 1932, the municipalities of Wesseling and Keldenich belong to the administrative district of Cologne (formerly the mayor's office of Hersel); for this purpose, the mayor's offices of Adendorf, Rheinbach and Ollheim (excluding Esch, Müggenhausen and Straßfeld) of the dissolved district of Rheinbach were moved to the administrative district of Bonn.

In 1933 the Staatsarchivrat Dr. Rohr took over the numbers 33-608. 1936 (Acc. 4/36) 26 volumes of personal files were handed over by the district committee, of which the no. 609-627 were taken over to the inventory. In 1940 the files of the district committee were handed over until 1927, no. 630-888 of the register. In 1947 the files N. 889-1000 were taken over. In October and November 1952 the same no. 1004-1023 (personal data of the mayors, deputies etc.). This file delivery in 1952 represents a rather modern collection, mainly from the first decades of the 20th century, and was completed in 1930 with a few exceptions (e.g. Secret State Police). The files originate from a uniformly numbered registry. The takeover took place in October/November 1952. (Cf. service registry). The extensive files of the District School Inspectorate Bonn/Land-Rheinbach (including the former districts Bonn and Rheinbach before 1932) were also taken over together with less numerous school files of the district administration. The files of the Bonn-Land insurance office (Dept. G) were left in the possession of the district administration. In June 1953 personnel files were also taken over for 4 office mayors (no. 1025-1028), in 1956 the same for 6 office mayors and office directors (1047-1052), in October 1956 the same for a number of higher municipal officials (1053-1059), also later further personnel files. The district of Bonn was formed in 1816 from the mayor's offices of Bonn, Godesberg, Hersel, Oedekoven, Poppelsdorf, Sechtem, Villich and Waldorf. since October 1, 1887 the city of Bonn has been separated from the district as a new urban district; from April 1, 1904 the rural communities of Poppelsdorf, Kessenich, Endenich and Dottendorf were united with it.

District office Dinslaken The district of Dinslaken was formed in 1816 from 7 mayor's offices Dinslaken, Duisburg, Gahlen, Götterswickerham, Holten, Ruhrort and Schermbeck. In 1823 he was united with the district of Essen to form the district of Duisburg. On this occasion the mayor's office Schermbeck was beaten to the district Rees. After the city of Duisburg left the district association in 1874, Mülheim an der Ruhr was designated a district town and the district was renamed "Kreis Mühlheim an der Ruhr". In 1887 the towns of Ruhrtort and Dinslaken as well as the district mayors of Dinslaken-Land, Beeck, Sterkrade, Meiderich, Götterswickerham, Gahlen and Duisburg-Land were branched off from the district of Mühleim as Ruhrort. After the cities Ruhrort and Meiderich had left the federation of the district Ruhrort to the city circle Duisburg by the law of 26th July 1905 the cities Ruhrort and Meiderich had left the federation of the district Ruhrort to the city circle Duisburg, the district administrator seat was shifted on 1st April 1909 from Duisburg Ruhrort to Dinslaken and the circle the designation "circle Dinslaken" was given. On May 1, 1911, the city of Hamborn was removed from the district association as a city district, and on July 1, 1917, the city of Sterkrade was removed as well. The district of Dinslaken and the districts with which it was united from 1823 to 1909 were administered by the following district councillors: Term of office, councillors, county - 1816-1823, von Buggenhagen, Dinslaken - 1823-1828, von Buggenhagen, Duisburg - 1829-1846, Devens, Duisburg - 1847-1848, Hammer (by order), Duisburg - 1848-1849, Dittmer (by order), Duisburg - 1849-1850, von Armin, Duisburg - 1850-1851, Dittmer, Duisburg - 1851-1870, Kessler, Duisburg - 1870-1874, von Rosenberg-Gruszcynski, Duisburg - 1874-1879, von Rosenberg-Gruszcynski, Mühleim - 1879-1887, Haniel, Mühlheim - 1887-1899, Hammacher, Ruhrort - 1900-1906, Kötter, Ruhrort - 1907-1916, Dr. von Wülfing, Ruhrort/Dinslaken - 1920-1930, Schluchtmann, Dinslaken - 1931-1932, von Nathusius, Dinslaken - 1932-1933, Dr. Klein, Dinslaken - 1933-1945, von Werder, Dinslaken The files of the Landratsamt were taken over by the Düsseldorf State Archives on 13 June 1939 (see Service Register A 4a Vol. XI, p.264).). The fire on 7 April 1909 in the newly furnished Landrats building, which had been completed for inauguration, meant that only a small remnant of the existing files was preserved. The files concerning industry in the district of Dinslaken are completely destroyed. The focus of the preserved files is on agriculture. - In accordance with the administrative history of the district, the holdings of the Duisburg-Mülheim District Office should be used for the period prior to its reestablishment in 1909, in which certain remains of the first district administration of Dinslaken (1816-1823) can also be found as previous files. The present collection was newly recorded in the spring of 1961 by Adrian, a candidate for an archive inspector, and written by Mrs. Pumierski.

The collection "Landratsamt Monschau mit der Signatur BR 0036" covers the period between 1816 and 1972 and consists of 433 files arranged according to subject areas. In the years 1887 and 1941, files from the Monschau District Office were taken over by the HSA Düsseldorf. The district of Monschau was formed in 1816 from the municipalities of Eicherscheid, Höfen, Imgenbroich, Kalterherberg, Kesternich, Konzen, Lammersdorf, Monschau, Mützenich, Roetgen, Rohren, Rott, Ruhrberg (later Rurberg), Schmidt, Simmerath, Steckenborn, Strauch, Vossenack and Zweifall. Monschau was at the same time the district town. Later these churches were divided into the following five ministries: Amt Imgenbroich (Eicherscheid. Imgenbroich, Konzen and Mützenich), Amt Kalterherberg (Kalterherberg, Höfen, Rohre), Amt Kesternich (Kesternich, Rurberg, Schmidt, Steckenborn, Strauch), Amt Roetgen (Roetgen, Rott, Zweifall), Amt Simmerath (Simmerath, Lammersdorf, Vossenack). Previously the district was called Montjoie and has only since 1918 the today's name Monschau. Until 1945 the district of Monschau belonged to the Prussian administrative district of Aachen in the Rhine province. From 1945 the district belonged to the British occupation zone and from 1946 to the state of North Rhine-Westphalia. In 1949, the district of Monschau changed to the federal state of North Rhine-Westphalia, which belonged to the administrative district of Aachen. In 1972 the district of Monschau was dissolved in the course of the municipal restructuring and almost completely integrated into the district of Aachen. The Monschau District Office had a double function. As an actual organ of the administrative district the office had to fulfill tasks of the country and the national administration. The holdings of the Monschau District Office include subjects such as district administration, municipal administration, construction, immigration and emigration, railways, fishing, forestry, agriculture, melioration, health care, military, trade and commerce, churches, police and schools. The files are to be ordered and quoted with indication of the inventory signature and current no., e.g. BR 0036 No. 72 Literature: Pilgram, Hans: Der Landkreis Monschau, Bonn 1958.

Introduction The holdings comprise the documents of the "Präsidialregistratur" (list of files = No. 1672 I, II, see footnote 1) which were handed over in a small accession (= No. 1619-1671, formerly Reg. Düsseldorf 1-52) in 1879, mainly to the Hauptstaatsarchiv in 1931/32. The presidential registry grew out of the "presidialia" or "presidential pieces" that had arisen in the Council of State from the direct administrative activities of the President of the Government. On the one hand, they referred to special personal responsibilities of the RP such as personnel matters, recommendations and information, representation, regular reports ("newspaper reports"), the Board of Trustees of the Mint and the Art Academy (both in Düsseldorf). On the other hand, the presidential office dealt with matters that were the responsibility of the individual departments of the government, provided that the RP had reserved the execution or at least the signature for itself (cf. the overview in No. 1672 I pp. 8 f.). The holdings of "Präsidialbüro" are thus to be used in addition to almost all the individual holdings groups of the Düsseldorf government until the end of their term (1927/29, cf. below). The presidential office is not to be confused with the "presidential department" existing from 1888 to 1932, which basically only represented a renaming of Abbot I (Abbot of the Interior). From 1897 to 1927 the presidential office bore the name "Centralbureau" (registry C.B., from 1905 C.B. I). The subjects "Social Democracy and Anarchism" (subject 35a of the file index) were summarized from 1905 in an own registry (C.B. II: political police), the subject "Mobilisation" (subject 47 No. 44-285 of the file index) from 1914 likewise (registry "Mob.", therein also First World War altogether including consequences) (see footnote 2). In 1928 the central office was followed by the "Geschäftskreis Pr.". In 1932 this was incorporated in the Dept. l = General Department (see footnote 3). The structure of the present finding aid book was drawn up largely freely, loosely based on the classification of files in file directory No 1672 (see footnote 4). The holdings comprise 1638 archive units (1672 warehouse numbers plus a-numbers minus unused numbers and losses). The total duration of the stock ranges from 1816 to 1927 (in only a few exceptional cases until 1932). In the case of multi-volume files, the volume count in the finding aid book occasionally deviates from the volume count on the file covers, since number jumps and double counts occur there. For small files, the number of sheets (usually l0 or less) was given. The files are to be ordered and quoted with BR 4 warehouse number. The stock was newly recorded from 1980 to 1984 with interruptions by OStAR Dr. Lück.

Preliminary remark 1: The classification has been changed to a purely numerical classification for retroconversion. The classification in the table of contents differs from the classification in the units of registration. The classification has been adopted within the index part units of description. Since the stock has received comparatively little attention in research so far, the old signatures have not been included. It may be necessary to look up the old finding aid book, which is part of the inventory. 2) The former item 19 (old Findbuch, p.359ff.): Courts in Düsseldorf (Kassationshof, Appellationshof, Kriminalgerichtshof, Kreisgericht (Tribunal 1. Instanz), Notariatskammern and Friedensgericht Ratingen) - except for one file of the Kreisgericht Düsseldorf (see under 16.1.) - were transferred to the Zweigarchiv Kalkum (old Findbuch, note p.1 by Mrs. Dr. Joester of 28.8. 1974). 3. there is as unlisted remainder a cardboard box at the end of storage of the inventory ("misdirected" from files of the Generalgouvernement). They must be placed elsewhere or a separate title must be created. A folder is pre-identified. According to Dr. Joester, they are sorted according to the files from which they were taken, from bottom to top. 4. the bibliography has been supplemented. Dr. Richter, 11.9. 2006

Preliminary remark The old list of files included Divisions I - VI. Divisions VII - XII and Division I P (personnel files) had been added to the list of files as special groups. A new structure with 25 subject groups was created in the present repertory, since the system of the old file index did not meet the requirements. The special groups of the old directory are now under: No. 5 c-e (Personal Akten, Abt. I P), No. 12 b (Mobil- und Demobilmachung, Abt. IX M, XMD), No. 23 c (Reg.Präsident Dr. Rombach, Abt. VIII), No. 23 f (Eupen-Malmedy, Abt. XI), No. 23 g (Neutral-Moresnet, Abt. VII), No. 24 (Gestapo, Abt. XII). The present new repertory replaces the provisional old repertory G 20/2, which only bore the title Government Aachen, Presidential Office, which has been extended in the present finding aid book to "Government Aachen, Presidential Office and Special Groups". However, the files shall continue to be ordered under 'Aachen Government, Presidential Office, No ...'. The redesign of the repertory was carried out by State Archives Inspector Kilian and State Archives Assessor Dr. Lück. (December 1970)
General information The files combined in this finding aid book originate from different registry layers as well as from different registries. In the main, they comprise from the old central office of the government (i.e. the Presidential Division CB I) the former subjects 35 (Public Peace and Mood), 35a (Social Democracy and Anarchism), 36 (Forbidden Links, Supervision of Individual Suspicious Individuals) as well as 47 (so-called Registrar's Office MOB). This latter registry grew into a comprehensive processing area for the mobilization, the war of 1914/18, the economic and military demobilization, as well as the entire occupation-related opportunities. The confusion led to a radical reorganization of the CB II (or CB III) registry around 1922, with a new division of the subject and a focus on occupation issues and political affairs. The special circumstances of the occupation period necessitated a branch of the district government in Krefeld. In 1920/21, the latter had its own registry, as did the district president Grützner during his expulsions in Barmen (February 1923 to April 1924) and Bielefeld (April-September 1924). The files of the so-called Essen Reporting Office are integrated into the inventory. This is one of the Provincial Public Order Supervision Services established at the instigation of the State Commissioner for Public Order, Robert Weismann, in August 1919. On 15 November 1920 a special registration office for the administrative district of Düsseldorf was set up, and Jürgens, the councillor of the district court, was appointed head of this office on 30 November 1920. On 10 March 1921 the registration office was moved from Düsseldorf to Essen, on 29 July 1927 it was moved back to Düsseldorf and integrated into the CB II department, where it existed until the end of 1922. The Reporting Office collected news about the political and economic movements in its area from the police and administrative authorities and from the press, stimulated the intervention of the executive branch on the basis of the news it received and reported continuously by the President of the Government to the Chief President in Münster, in important cases immediately to the State Commissioner. The documents and newspaper clippings were originally stapled together in notebooks marked M ff. At the end of 1922 Faszikel was created and newly signed (A lff., B lff. etc.). That reorganisation was carried out up to the letter M, with the exception of the files relating to the crew, which were not stapled. Of the following letters, only a few particularly important files have been stapled. The records of the Essen Reporting Office and also of the CB II registry from 1922 ff. are partly very inconsistent, they tend above all to the formation of very narrow subject matters (or institutions concerning) and therefore show partly very thin fascicles. Also included in the inventory are the documents of various authorities and organisations of the transitional economy (above all price control and usury control) as well as the opportunities for occupation. The documents of the German delegation to Düsseldorf for the implementation of the London Agreements of 1924 are particularly worthy of mention here. The German delegations in Düsseldorf and Koblenz were headed by Johannes Horion, Governor of the State of Düsseldorf, whose permanent deputy in the Düsseldorf delegation was the Privy Councillor Dr. Claussen. The delegation, which had its seat first in the Landeshaus, and since 24 November 1924 in the government building, began its activities in September and ended them in December 1924. Occasionally, documents of the District President Abbot CB II are attached to the files. These files were handed over by the Düsseldorf government in 1934. Professor Wentzcke saw others in the possession of the late governor Horion. The files of the district police commissioner Otto Kammhoff in Elberfeld make up a numerically large but not so important part. For a critical assessment of the source value of these files, the personal file of Kammhoff is to be consulted (No. 15993). The files summarized in the present find book extend from the middle of the 19th century to about 1944, with the emphasis on the labour movement since 1880, the First World War and the post-war period until about 1928. From the later years there are files of the police department only for 1931/32 and a few from the foreigner surveillance of the Second World War. The archivability is given in the majority; often the arrangement of a permanent storage is to be understood only from the special situation (crew defense). For reasons of a closed overdelivery, which is in itself also a document, however, it was decided not to carry out subsequent individual cassations. Due to the fragmentation of the authorities' activities (headquarters in Düsseldorf, branch office in Krefeld, registry of the district president), numerous multiple documents have been produced, as well as the simultaneous reporting to superior offices.

Discriminatory title formulations due to time constraints were left, but the title formation was corrected by additions or explanations in the Include note. Especially out of the anti-occupation defence files have been formulated under a title, which assumes a much more far-reaching fact than actually going facts. The same title structure was retained for general and special files. The terms, however, are uniformly reproduced as general; individual cases or accompanying acts (instead of generalia, specialia or adhibenda). The content of the memos has been broken down further, i.e. further information has been provided which is covered by the title of the file but not addressed in detail, or the formal page of the content of the file has been added for explanatory purposes. Documentation content that differs from this is indicated both in terms of content and form (especially print and periodicals, posters, etc.). In view of the very uneven size of individual volumes and their nevertheless promising titles, the size was shown (either in the exact or in an estimated size). The following subject areas were selected for the content and thematic classification 1) Political Affairs 2) Administrative Law, Foreigners' Affairs 3) Occupation Affairs 4) Military Affairs, Warfare 5) War and Forced Economy (Transition Economy) The subdivision into the individual points takes into account both the factual context and the formation of the files, i.e.h. where sufficiently large amounts of files were created into a complex under a (contemporary) subject, these series were also merged (e.g., Social Democracy and Anarchism Communism and related organizations National Socialism and related organizations). These definitions are of a purely practical nature and are intended to avoid classification according to ideological principles. In addition, either the alphabet or the chronology are strictly regarded as further order factors in individual classification groups. For the history of authorities and registries, the introduction to the finding aid G 21/2 (presidential office) is to be used. The files shall be quoted: BR 0007, BR 1041, BR 2049 current no.

Literature G. Knopp. The Prussian administration of the administrative district Düsseldorf 1899-1919, Cologne-Berlin 1974 GeneralThe files united in this find book originate both from different registry layers and from different registries. In the main, they comprise from the old central office of the government (i.e. the Presidential Division CB I) the former subjects 35 (Public Peace and Mood), 35a (Social Democracy and Anarchism), 36 (Forbidden Links, Supervision of Individual Suspicious Individuals) as well as 47 (so-called Registrar's Office MOB). This latter registry grew into a comprehensive processing area for the mobilization, the war of 1914/18, the economic and military demobilization, as well as the entire occupation-related opportunities. The lack of clarity led to a radical reorganization of the CB II (or CB III) registry around 1922, with a new division of the registry and a new focus on occupation issues and political affairs. In 1920/21, the latter had its own registry, as did the district president Grützner during his expulsion in Barmen (February 1923 to April 1924) and Bielefeld (April-September 1924). The files of the so-called Essen registration office are integrated into the inventory. It is one of the provincial offices for the supervision of public order, which were established at the instigation of the State Commissioner for Public Order, Robert Weismann, in August 1919 (with the chief presidents). 15 November 1920 the formation of a special registration office for the administrative district Düsseldorf was ordered, to whose leader on 30 Nov. 1920 the district court councillor Jürgens was appointed. On 10 March 1921 the registration office was moved from Düsseldorf to Essen, on 29 July 1927 it was moved back to Düsseldorf and integrated into the CB II department, where it existed until the end of 1922.The Reporting Office collected news about the political and economic movements in its area from the police and administrative authorities and from the press, stimulated the intervention of the executive branch on the basis of the news it received, and reported continuously by the President of the Government to the Chief President in Münster, and in important cases immediately to the State Commissioner. At the end of 1922 Faszikel was created and re-signed (A lff., B lff. etc.). This reorganization was carried out up to the letter M with the exception of the files referring to the crew, which were not stapled. Of the following letters, only a few particularly important files have been stapled: the records of the Essen Reporting Office and also of the CB II registry from 1922 et seq. are sometimes very inconsistent, they tend above all to form very narrowly defined subject matters (or institutions) and therefore sometimes exhibit very thin fascicles.Included in the inventory are also the documents of various authorities and organizations of the transitional economy (especially price control and usury control) as well as the opportunities for occupation, in particular the documents of the German delegation to Düsseldorf for the implementation of the London Agreements of 1924. The German delegations in Düsseldorf and Koblenz were headed by Johannes Horion, Governor of the State of Düsseldorf, whose permanent deputy in the Düsseldorf delegation was the Privy Councillor Dr. Claussen. The delegation, which had its seat first in the Landeshaus, since 24 November 1924 in the government building, began its activity in September and terminated it in December 1924. Occasionally documents of the district president abbot CB II are attached to the files. The delivery of these files took place in 1934 by the government of Düsseldorf. Professor Wentzcke saw others in the possession of the late governor Horion. The files of the district police commissioner Otto Kammhoff in Elberfeld make up a numerically large but not so important part. The personal file of Kammhoff (No. 15993) is to be used for a critical appraisal of the source value of these files. the files summarized in the present find book extend from the middle of the 19th century to about 1944, with the emphasis on the labour movement since 1880, the First World War and the post-war period until about 1928.

The files of the former district courts of Barmen, Elberfeld, Ronsdorf and today's district court of Wuppertal were largely recorded by temporary workers. It was not always possible for them to assign the files to a specific district court, especially as the files continued at the later Wuppertal district court were usually given a new file number. In the following compilation, therefore, the register files were simply listed in the sequence of numbers.

The BORCKEschen possessions in the right Rhine part of the duchy of KLEVE consisted of the 4 knight's seats HUETH, ROSAU, OFFENBERG and WENGE together with the subductors BIENEN and PRAEST-DORNICK. The Chamber President and Privy Council, the later Minister of the Budget, Friedrich Wilhelm v. BORCKE, had acquired the houses HUETH and ROSAU from the WYLICH-LOTTUM bankruptcy in 1736 and the RECKEschen Herrschaften OFFENBERG-PRAEST-DORNICK in 1744/45. Since the archives of the previous owners were taken over in whole or in part, the collection consists of 3 main groups: The RECKEsche Archives (I and II), a part of the WYLICH-LOTTUMsche Archives (III and IV) and the BORCKEsche Archives (IV and V) I and II. The Rhenish possessions of the family v.d. RECKE came mainly from the family v. WYLICH zu WENGE, which had died out in 1636 in the male tribe. The heirs were the sister of the last v. W. GERBERGA ( 1637) and her sons 2. Ehe KONRAD und DIETRICH v.d. RECKE. The property included the houses WENGE (at DORNICK) and NEUENHOFEN (in KREFELD-BOCKUM) as well as estates and pastures in the county of 's HEERENBERG. KONRAD v.d. RECKE, later president of the chamber in KLEVE, received these maternal estates during the division. In the year 1670 he acquired the noble house OFFENBERG in exchange for the WYLICHsche house to EMMERICH and pushed through 1677 that this was detached from the rule BIENEN and raised with a part of the peasantry BERGE to the sub rule. In 1678 he also received jurisdiction over PRAEST and DORNICK. The archive accordingly consists of the archive of the family v. WYLICH (I) and the extensive estate of the KONRAD v.d. RECKE ( 1713) (II). The WYLICH Archive also contains the archives of the families NEUENHOFEN-OSSENBROICH (referred to as NEUENHOFEN in the documents section), WISSEL, LOWENBERG and GOHR. III The WYLICH-LOTTUM archive was probably divided after the death of Field Marshal KARL PHILIPP v. W. in 1719, since almost all files are missing here about the house GRONDSTEIN, which was passed on to the 2nd son, and there are also gaps in the holdings of documents. But the valuable official acts of GODART, CHRISTOFFEL, OTTO and CHRISTOFFEL, of which the 3 first officials were in GENNEP (1455-1546), the last two held the office of HETTER (1542-1590), remained on HUETH (now KLEVE-MARK XI d GENNEP and HETTER); furthermore also the estates of Baron JOHANN SIGISMUND ( 1677) with the files of the office HEMERS (now KLEVE-MARK XI d) and of the Field Marshal General KARL PHILIPP. 38 documents which had been alienated from the holdings either in 1719 or during the sale of the estate in 1736 were transferred from the Geh. Staatsarchiv in 1862. They have now been reunited with the stock, having previously formed their own stock of GRONDSTEIN dominion. The properties of the family in the HETTER may come in part from the families HEKEREN and LOEL. In 1645 the house HUETH with BIENEN, BERGE and ANROP was elevated to sub rule. The dominion of GRIBBENVORST-LOTTUM, which originated from the estate of ALEID v. BARSD0NK ( after 1420), had to be asserted in a year-long process with v. MARWICK. GRONDSTEIN came into the possession of OTTO v.WYLICH (married to ELISABETH v. GRONDSTEIN) by inheritance in 1535. (Cf. the old find book: Herrschaft GRONDSTEIN; now file no. 1401) The dominion WEHL was purchased in 1671 and the house ROSAU in 1690 (see also Dep Wylich-Lottum). The files of the HUETH Lehnhof were combined into a special group, since a divorce of the WYLICHschen and BORCKEschen parts was not possible here. V. The BORCKE family owned the house HUETH until their extinction in 1872. From the extensive estates of the budget minister FRIEDRICH WILHELM v. B., the Klevische estates and the v. STEDER fiefs had passed to his son, the general commissioner and later Prussian envoy ADRIAN HEINRICH during the division of the estate in 1769. Under his son FRIEDRICH HEINRICH ( 1825), the decay of the family fortune began. The inherited debts, the loss of sovereign rights including the income flowing from them, the poor economic situation of the real estate after the wars of liberation, but especially the unfortunate outcome of an inheritance process with the stepbrother v. VATTEL. Neufchatel 1819 brought the family into a difficult economic situation. After the death of the count it was probably only the steward SONORÈ as well as the guardians who had to be thanked that the possessions did not come under the hammer. When the estate was divided in 1843, the oldest son Count HEINRICH BORCKE acquired the house HUETH, the remaining farms were passed on to the mother and siblings. From his successor, Freiherr v. WITTENHORST- SONSFELD, the Prussian Archive Administration acquired in 1872 the so-called Old Archive (I - IV) and the estates of the Minister FRIEDRICH WILHELM and the envoy ADRIAN HEINRICH v. BORCKE (files E 1 III 48 et seq.). By order of the Archivdirektion of 5 June 1873, the extensive and valuable estates of both BORCKE as well as parts of the estates of KONRAD v.d.RECKE and Generalfeldmarschall v. WYLICH-LOTTUM had to be transferred to the Geheime Staatsarchiv in Berlin. Following the implementation of the principle of origin (provenance principle), the official files of the budget minister were distributed to the state archives of Düsseldorf, Münster and Marburg in 1889, and the RECKEschen and WYLICH files were also returned to the state archives of Düsseldorf (service files A 7 g 1 88 A.V. 1884/33). The BORCKE estates remained in Berlin (cf. the indexes at the end of the Findbuch, for the Klevische Kammerakten at present the holdings BORCKE-HUETH). When the remainder of the HUETH archive was acquired in 1935, the division of 1889 had to be made the basis. Accordingly, the pieces belonging to the estates of the BORCKE family and the files on the Eastern Elbe possessions to Berlin, individual official files were handed over to the state archives of Münster and Marburg (see the indexes at the end of the find book). The administrative records of the 18th and 19th centuries remained in Düsseldorf, as far as they referred to HUETH and the HALBERSTÄDT fiefdoms, as well as the extensive estate of Count FRIEDRICH HEINRICH BORCKE, who had mainly been active in Grand-Ducal mining services. The youth letters FRIEDRICHS des GROSSEN to the budget minister v. B., which were excluded from sale in 1873, have since been lost (1 letter b. Stromberg, Haus Elverlingsen b. Altena/W., other letters b. Gravert, Gestüt Midlinghoven near Düsseldorf-Hubbelrath; 1921 still available, see Krudewig, Niederrhein. Homeland. 1, 1921, No. 14). The order of the files acquired in 1935 was taken as an occasion to redraw the previously acquired holdings. For practical reasons, the chronological order of the documents was maintained, especially as it was not always possible to assign individual pieces to a particular group. A small collection of documents and files, which had been alienated from the archive by the rector Bröring zu Rees, reached the state archives in 1936 together with his collection and was reunited with the main collection.

Rep. 4 III) (now Landesarchiv NRW Abteilung Westfalen ?; cf. handwritten margin note StA Münster in the analogous Altfindbuch 110.12.1, Bl. IX) Depositum Hueth II (from Wittenhorst-Sonsfeld) From the archival holdings at Hueth Castle (documents and records of the castle owners of Wylich-Lottum, von Wylich-Wenge, von der Recke, von Borcke and, lastly, von Wittenhorst-Sonsfeld) was discovered in 1872 by the Prussians. Archive administration acquired the so-called old archive with the estates of the minister Friedrich Wilhelm and the envoy Adrian Heinrich von Borcke. The latter as well as parts of the old archive were transferred to the Geh. Staatsarchiv in Berlin in 1873 by order of the Archivdirektion. The official files were distributed in 1889 to the state archives of Düsseldorf, Münster and Marburg according to the principle of provenance. In 1935 the remainder of the archive of the Hueth dominion was acquired and divided on the basis of 1889. The files acquired in 1872 and 1935 and transferred to the Düsseldorf State Archives were recorded together in the 1936 Findbuch der Herrschaft Hueth (C 135) by the later director of the Düsseldorf State Archives, Dr. Oediger. What remained in the possession of the barons of Wittenhorst-Sonsfeld on Hueth were parts of the family archive of the counts of Borcke and the family archive of the barons of Wittenhorst-Sonsfeld. The Wittenhorst Archive was listed in 1933 by the Landesarchivrat Dr. Kisky in the Findbuch Wittenhorst und Borcke (Hueth) (H 4 XIV); the remaining holdings were inspected and arranged by the Landesarchiv, but could no longer be carried out before the war. This last part of the archive was brought from the damaged archive rooms to the cellars of the Catholic elementary school in Rees by the archive advisory office. When the cellars had to be cleared in 1958, the archive was deposited with the Düsseldorf State Archives (Depositalvertrag vom 27.11.1958; Acc. No. 88/1958; Tageb. No. 3801-H XVII). The deposit consisted of 3 boxes with files, mainly of the 18th and 19th centuries, as well as a box with partly decayed books, a herbarium and various maps. It was placed in Room V. On 16.12. 59 Klaus Frh. von Wittenhorst-Sonsfeld received power of attorney from his brother to remove parts of these records. Dr. Lahrkamp began to record the rest of the completely rearranged and confused files. This work was completed July-September 1962 by the undersigned. The review revealed that more than half of the holdings are still parts of the von Borcke archive, with a focus on 1800 (Count Adrian Heinrich von Borcke, died 1791, Count Friedrich Heinrich, died 1825). The collection also contains individual pieces from the archives of von Borckeschen and Wittenhorst's relatives (Sommer, Bünte, von Goltstein zu Beeck). In order not to pre-empt the owner of the inventory, no money was collected, although a large part of the files are of little value, but only the unworthy pieces were sorted out and placed in a separate envelope.

During the transfer of the House of Ehreshoven to the cooperative of the Rhenish knightly nobility in 1920/24, the archive of the Counts of Nesselrode was brought to Velen and from there it was loaned to the State Archives. It was purchased in 1954. More than half of the files (numbers 1-600 and the group "Landesarchiv", see Findbuch 110.22.03) were on the barge "Main 68", which sank in March 1945 in the Mittellandkanal (cf. F.W. Oediger, Das Staatsarchiv Düsseldorf und seine Bestände Bd. 1, p. 43). So far not all pieces could be restored.

Preliminary remark Cf. the estate of the prefect Count Spee in the Speeschen Archiv zu Heltorf (Repertorium H 8,4, vol. 5). According to an analogous find book, the documents of the prefecture of the Ruhrdepartement were handed over to the Staatsarchiv Münster in 1953 (find book J I n 35, inventory Grand Duchy of Berg).

The files of the present holdings NW 223 were handed over to the Main State Archives on 13 October 1976 in 10 packages and 8 files and were accepted under No. III 82/76. These are documents of the Zoological Research Institute and Museum Alexander Koenig, Bonn, which document the emergence of the institute as a foundation and its work as a state institution. Numerous purchase contracts for the properties on which the construction of the Museum Koenig and the Villa Hammerschmidt, today's "House of the Federal President", are located, provide information about the development of the former rural property in this area in the second half of the 19th century. The construction of the museum building, a neo-Renaissance building, is documented, as is the transfer of the furnishings to the Reich as a result of unsuccessful efforts to complete the construction with Prussia's own funds or with the help of the Prussian government. The correspondences convey a vivid picture of the patriarchal character of the "Reichsinstitut" under the direction of its founder, Prof. Dr. Alexander Koenig. The scientific diaries as well as the documents belonging to the "Alexander Koenig Foundation" on the basis of testamentary provisions are still kept in the Koenig Museum. For the history of the institution and the Koenig family cf. Martin Eisentraut, Alexander Koenig und sein Werk, Bonn 1973. For the history of the Zoological Research Institute and Museum A. Koenig after 1945 cf. also the holdings NW 60. The holdings were recorded from December 1976 to January 1977 by the State Archives Council, Dr. Jürgen Rainer Wolf. Mrs. Angela Mauritz wrote the find book. The records must be quoted: NW 223 No. ... The stock is freely visible.
