History of Tradition Dr. Ernst von Scheurlen, retired Ministerialrat, did not leave any testamentary disposition over the documents. Since 1945 at the latest, these had been in the house of his oldest daughter Katharina Schmidt, née Scheurlen, who, after her death on 3 January 1989, took over her son Karl Schmidt, a retired pastor. There - in the spirit of Ernst von Scheurlen - they were accessible to all relatives and were occasionally inspected by individuals. For the transfer to the Main State Archives in Stuttgart, the consideration that there would be no comparable place of secure storage in the relatives in the future was decisive. As a result, a deposit agreement was concluded between Mr Karl Schmidt and the Landesarchiv Baden-Württemberg on 1 December 2008. Content and Evaluation Karl Scheurlen ( 1824, 1872) Karl Scheurlen was born on 3 Sept. 1824 in Tübingen, where his father Karl Christian Friedrich Scheurlen was professor of law. He attended school there and in Stuttgart, where his father had been appointed to the Obertribunal in 1839. He studied law in Tübingen from 1841 to 1846 and then completed his legal clerkship. In 1847 he became court actuary at the Heilbronn Higher District Court. During the revolutionary events of 1848, Karl Scheurlen adopted an emphatically conservative attitude. In 1850 he was appointed public prosecutor in Esslingen. In 1851 he was appointed Assessor of Justice and Public Prosecutor in Ellwangen, where he married Katharina Pfreundt in 1852. From 1856 on Karl Scheurlen was chief magistrate in Mergentheim, from 1863 chief justice councillor in Esslingen and from 1865 lecturing councillor in the Ministry of Justice. Together with his friend, the then Obertribunalrat von Mittnacht, Karl Scheurlen was commissioned by the Minister of Justice of Neurath to work out the principles of a judicial reform which Mittnacht, since 1867 Minister of Justice, completed in 1868 and 1869. Karl Scheurlen's ascent had also continued in 1867 with his appointment to the Privy Council; however, his two attempts to acquire a Landtag mandate failed. By decree of 23 March 1870, Karl Scheurlen was appointed head of the Department of Home Affairs and Minister of the Interior on 17 July of the same year. This appointment took place at the time of a domestic political crisis: 45 members of the Württemberg state parliament had refused in the spring to approve the military budget, the rejection of which would have made Württemberg meet its obligations from the 1866 Protection and Defense Alliance with Prussia, which was widely unpopular. The fact that the broad resistance against the military budget unexpectedly subsided can be traced back to the French declaration of war of 15 July 1870. After the new elections of 1871, which were announced with reference to the political reorganization of Germany after the Franco-German War, Karl Scheurlen found himself faced with a well-meaning majority among the members of parliament. He himself was also elected as a deputy twice, in Gaildorf and Künzelsau; he accepted the election in Gaildorf. His death on April 1, 1872, caused by a heart condition, came as a surprise. Karl Scheurlen cultivated lively literary and artistic interests in addition to his work in justice and politics. He wrote numerous verses and poems. His talent for drawing is particularly remarkable; he used it, among other things, to make numerous sketches of accused persons and judicial officials during his time at court, or to illustrate the "Amtspflege", the organ of the Hauffei, his Tübingen student fraternity. Many of his drawings have a humorous character; self-portraits and depictions of family members and acquaintances are extremely frequent. Ernst von Scheurlen ( 1863, 1952) Ernst von Scheurlen was born in Mergentheim on Feb. 5, 1863, the youngest of six children of the later Minister of the Interior, Karl Scheurlen, and his wife Katharina Scheurlen. After school he studied medicine in Berlin, where he received his doctorate in 1885. After his state examination from 1887 to 1891, he worked there as an assistant doctor at the Charité and the Reich Health Office; bacteriology and hygiene were already the focal points of his scientific interest at this time. The marriage to Sophie von Möller (1889), who belonged to a family of German descent from the then Russian Narwa, also took place during this period. In 1893 Ernst von Scheurlen became a battalion doctor in Strasbourg. At the same time he taught hygiene and bacteriology at the Technical University in Stuttgart and at the University of Strasbourg in 1893-1894 and 1895-1897 respectively. He also headed the hygiene and bacteriology department of the large garrison hospital in Stuttgart. In 1897 he took up a position as a medical councillor at the Königlich Württembergischen Medizinalkollegium. His tasks included working for the State Insurance Institute, the Trade Supervisory Office, the Reich Health Council, in the management of the Medical State Investigation Office, etc. It is due to his activities that the city of Stuttgart received its central sewage treatment plant during the First World War. During the entire First World War, Ernst von Scheurlen was involved as a hygienist in disease control and water supply at various sections of the Western and Eastern fronts. After the First World War, he devoted himself in particular to water supply, crop control and blood group research. He has written down his research results in numerous publications. He retired in 1930, but this did not mean the end of his scientific career; his last publication dates from 1950, two years before his death on Oct. 8, 1952 at the age of 89. In addition to his scientific work, Ernst von Scheurlen documented the history of his family from about 1800 with great dedication. For this purpose he combined numerous pictures, sketches, poems and letters of his father, who died at an early age, with other collection material and supplemented, explained and commented this material by a written representation of the family history.

1. on the Gauger/Heiland family: Joseph Gauger is the first person documented in the collection with originals. He was descended from a Swabian family that can be traced back to the 16th century and that early confessed to Pietism. His father, Johann Martin Gauger (1816-1873), was head of the Paulinenpflege, his half-brother Gottlob Gauger (1855-1885) was in the service of the Basler Mission and was active 1878-1888 in Africa at the Gold Coast and afterwards in Cameroon, where he died. Joseph Gauger's brother Samuel (1859-1941) was also a pastor and last dean in Ludwigsburg. Born in 1866 in Winnenden, Joseph Gauger became an orphan early on, at the age of 13. He graduated from the Karlsgymnasium in Stuttgart. He first attended the teacher training seminar in Esslingen and became a teacher in Dürnau after graduating. From 1889 to 1893 he studied law in Tübingen, then Protestant theology. Afterwards he became vicar in Mägerkingen and Großheppach, 1898 finally town parish administrator in Giengen. The emerging Swabian career was broken off by the marriage with Emeline Gesenberg from Elberfeld. She was to stay in Elberfeld to care for her father, so the young couple moved into their parents' house in Hopfenstraße 6. There was also a Pietist community in Elberfeld. Joseph Gauger found employment as the second inspector of the Protestant Society, which provided him with a solid foundation for an equally pietistic career in his new Rhineland homeland. Later he was able to obtain the position of Director of the Evangelical Society. The Evangelical Society in Elberfeld had dedicated itself to mission in Germany since 1848. Here Gauger became responsible for the publishing work and the so-called writing mission. Since 1906 he was editor of the weekly "Licht und Leben", an activity he carried out until 1938, shortly before his death. From 1923 he also published the widely read political monthly "Gotthardbriefe". In 1911 Gauger became a member of the board of the Gnadauer Verband and in 1921 - not least because of his musical talent - chairman of the Evangelischer Sängerbund. In 1921 he also became a member of the Constituent Assembly of the Evangelical Church of the Old Prussian Union. His favourite sister Maria married Jakob Ziegler, who worked at the Ziegler Institutions in the pietist community of Wilhelmsdorf (near Ravensburg) as a senior teacher and later director at the boys' institution. Due to the very intensive correspondence and frequent visits to his sister, Joseph Gauger remained attached to Swabian pietism. During the Third Reich, Joseph Gauger and his family were followers of the Confessing Church. Joseph Gauger was finally banned from publishing, his publication organ "Licht und Leben" was banned, and in 1939 he was expelled from the Reichsschrifttumskammer. In 1934 his son Martin refused the oath to Adolf Hitler, whereupon he - a young public prosecutor - was dismissed from public service. Since 1935 he has worked as a lawyer for the 1st Temporary Church Administration of the German Evangelical Church and since February 1936 for the Council of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Germany in Berlin. When the war broke out in 1939, he also refused military service and fled to the Netherlands. However, he was seized here, arrested and later taken to the Buchenwald concentration camp. He therefore had to give up his church service in 1940. In 1941 he was murdered by the Nazis in the Sonnenstein Killing Institute near Pirna. The younger son of Joseph Gauger, Joachim, was also harassed by the Gestapo for his work for the Gotthard Letters and "Light and Life". After the death of Joseph Gauger (1939) and the complete destruction of the Gauger House in Elberfeld following an air raid in June 1943, the family returned to the south. Siegfried Gauger, after a short time as town vicar in Schwäbisch Gmünd, had already become town priest in Möckmühl in 1933 and had settled there with his wife Ella. Martha Gauger has lived in Heidenheim since her marriage to Theo Walther in 1934. Hedwig Heiland moved in 1943 to Gemmrigheim, the new parish of her husband. The parsonage there also offered space for the mother Emeline Gauger and the nanny of the Gauger children, Emilie Freudenberger. A little later, after her early retirement in 1947, her sister Maria Gauger also moved to Gemmrigheim. After his release from captivity as a prisoner of war, Joachim Gauger had also moved professionally to Möckmühl, where he ran the Aue publishing house. Only Paul Gerhard had stayed in Wuppertal, where he lived in the Vohwinkel district. Emeline Gauger's mother and sister Maria moved from Gemmrigheim to Möckmühl in 1951, which became the centre of the Gauger family, as a result of the forthcoming move of the Heilands to Stuttgart. Because now the mother lived here with three of her children: Siegfried, Maria and Joachim. The family gathered here regularly for sociable celebrations and the grandchildren of Emeline Gauger often came to visit here during the holidays. It was not until the grandson generation of Emeline and Joseph Gauger entered working life in the 1970s that the family scattered throughout Germany. Despite everything, this generation remained in contact with each other and organized regular family reunions. 2nd history of the stock: Bettina Heiland, Marburg, and Susanne Fülberth, Berlin, handed over the family documents Gauger/Heiland to the Main State Archives for safekeeping in January 2011 after the death of their mother Hedwig Heiland. Some further documents were submitted in June 2013. Hedwig Heiland, née Gauger, born 1914, was the youngest child of Joseph and Emeline Gauger and had survived all siblings and close relatives at the age of 96. The documents handed over originate from different persons in the family. Important documents come from her aunt Maria Ziegler, her father's favourite sister who lives in Wilhelmsdorf. She kept the letters of Joseph Gauger and his wife to their relatives in Wilhelmsdorf (to which she also belonged), a remarkable series of correspondence. Memorabilia such as her place card for the wedding of Joseph and Emeline in Elberfeld in 1898 and individual books by Joseph Gauger and the history of the family are also included. After her death Hedwig Heiland received her from her daughter Ruth Dessecker. Other documents come from mother Emeline Gauger, including letters to her and valuable memorabilia as well as files. They must have come to Hedwig Heiland after her death in 1964 or after the death of her daughter Maria, who lived with her. The documents of the brother Siegfried, city priest in Möckmühl, who died in 1981, are also rich. They date back to before 1943, when the parents' house in Elberfeld was destroyed. Worth mentioning are the dense series of letters of his brother Martin (the Nazi victim) and his parents, as well as his sister Hedwig to him. Furthermore there are letters of Sister Maria (until she moved to Möckmühl in 1950). Less dense is the letter tradition of the brothers Paul Gerhard and Emil Gauger to the city priest. Only the memorial book of the young Siegfried, which has a very high memorial value, his children did not want to do without. It is therefore only available as a copy, but in two copies. Sister Maria Gauger was primarily important as a photographer from the early days of Elberfeld. In addition to files on her own life and fate, she kept a family guest book in Möckmühl, which contains many interesting entries on family life and mutual visits. This is also included in the original stock. Her cousin Maria Keppler, née Ziegler, and her husband Friedrich also sent documents to Hedwig Heiland, especially correspondence and photographs. After the death of her husband Alfred in 1996, the documents of the older family Heiland also came to Hedwig Heiland and were kept by her. These were correspondences and the pastor's official records as well as family history materials, investigations and genealogical tables, but also documents from the mother Anna Heiland. In addition, the family of Hedwig and Alfred Heiland had a large number of younger records. Hedwig Heiland also proved to be a collector here, who rarely threw away a document and preferred to keep it. It didn't stop at collecting and picking up. Hedwig Heiland also arranged the documents and supplemented them with his own notes and investigations. Numerous notes on the family history of Gauger bear witness to this. Hedwig Gauger read the letters from her youth, extracted important dates and took notes. On the basis of the documents she kept and evaluated, she made a film in 2007 entitled "This is how I experienced it. Memories of my family and my life, told by Hedwig Heiland née Gauger" (DVDs in P 39 Bü 469). It consists essentially of an interview with her and numerous photos about her life and the fate of her family. Hedwig Heiland was particularly committed to the rehabilitation of her brother Martin. She intensively supported the research on his fate with information, compilations and also with the lending of documents. She collected the results, i.e. books and essays, and compiled the state of research almost completely. For the exhibition "Justiz im Nationalsozialismus" she read letters of her brother Martin Gauger and other documents about his life, which are stored as audio documents on a CD (P 39 Bü 468). Despite the richness of the available material, gaps in the tradition are to be noted. The sudden destruction of the Elberfelder Haus der Gaugers in 1943 resulted in a severe loss of family documents. About Maria Ziegler from Wilhelmsdorf and Siegfried Gauger, who did not live in Elberfeld anymore at that time, other documents from this time have fortunately been preserved, which compensate this gap somewhat. Another gap exists in the correspondence of Hedwig Heiland during the 70s to 90s of the last century. Even then, there must have been a rich correspondence, of which there is hardly anything left. The correspondence of Hedwig Heiland, on the other hand, which has been richer again since 2000, is present; it was hardly ordered, but has not yet been thrown away. In 1993 documents concerning Martin Gauger were handed over to the Landeskirchlichen Archiv Hannover for archiving. They received the inventory signature N 125 Dr. Martin Gauger. The 1995 find book on these documents is available in the inventory as no. 519. 3rd order of the stock: The documents originate from different provenances and had been arranged accordingly. A delivery list could be prepared and handed over for the inventory. Letters from Hedwig Gauger to his fiancé Alfred Heiland from the 40 years and also the letters in the opposite direction have been numbered consecutively, which points to a very intensive reading and thorough order, which, however, is an extreme case. In the letters Joseph Gauger wrote to his sister Maria after 1920, the covers of the tufts contain summaries of the most important pieces and references to outstanding family events mentioned in the letters. This information can be used as a guide during use. However, the original order of the documents was badly confused by the frequent use by the family and by third parties. One has not or wrongly reduced the taken out pieces. Frequently, individual letters were found in the photo albums with photos that were related to the content of the letter, but had to be returned to the original series. A photo album (P 39 Bü 353) had been divided into individual sheets so that the photos required for publications could be passed on to third parties as print copies. Hedwig Heiland had attached self-adhesive yellow notes to many letters and provided them with notes and references in order to be able to orientate herself better in her family-historical research. For conservation reasons, these notes had to be removed. In addition to the restoration of the original order, further measures were necessary for the order of the stock. Many documents were too broadly characterised as "other" or "miscellaneous". Tufts with very different contents were incorporated into existing units. A larger box still contained completely disordered, but nevertheless valuable letters from the period 1943-1952, which had to be sorted and indexed. Thematically similar tufts could often be combined into one unit. For example, mixed tufts containing letters from different scribes to the same recipient were divided and transformed into tufts with uniform scribes. This order according to the principle "a tuft, a letter writer" could not always be carried out. Letters of the married couple Emeline and Joseph Gauger, for example (to Maria Ziegler) are so closely interlocked that they cannot be split into two separate tufts. Sometimes Emeline signed her husband's letter with a short greeting of her own, sometimes she is greeted in the name of both, but often Emeline wrote her own passages on the letterhead and sometimes there are whole letters from her. Separation is also impossible in terms of content. Similarly, letters from Emeline Gauger and Maria Gauger in their Möckmühl days cannot be separated from those of Siegfried Gauger. Such letters were classified according to the author author. The index refers to the other persons. The present order and indexing was based on family interests. Essentially, in addition to the corrections and restructuring measures mentioned above, the documents had to be arranged and made accessible for scientific research. For this reason, a greater depth of indexing was necessary, above all, by means of title recordings with detailed content annotations. An overall order of the holdings according to the different origins of the documents did not prove to be meaningful for a family archive of the present size. The uniformity of the documents produced by Hedwig Heiland was therefore accepted and maintained. Accordingly, the title recordings of the correspondence of members of the Gauger family are arranged according to the letter writer and not according to the letter recipient. Letters usually contain more information about the author than about the recipient. Letters from non-family members and from letter writers to whom little material has grown, on the other hand, were classified according to the recipient principle ("Letters from different correspondence partners to XY"). The present collection documents the fate of a Swabian family closely linked to Pietism over almost two centuries. Outstanding is the relatively well-known theologian Joseph Gauger, who is richly documented with his correspondence and in his writings. The marriage of his sister Maria Ziegler also gives a glimpse of the Pietist settlement in Wilhelmsdorf and the Ziegler Institutions. The family's attitude during the Nazi period and especially the fate of his son Martin, who was imprisoned for his conscientious objection and finally killed, are also reflected in the inventory. Relations with the family of the Berlin prison pastor and member of the Kreisau district of Harald Poelchau are also documented. Dense series of letters from the Second World War (letters from Hedwig Heiland to her husband Alfred, letters from Alfred Heiland to his wife Hedwig, letters from Maria Gauger to her brother Siegfried) tell of the hard everyday life of the World War II. In addition, the collection illuminates the everyday family life of a Swabian family over at least two generations. The collection comprises 529 units in 5.20 linear metres, the duration extends from 1882 to 2010 with prefiles from 1831. 4.

History of the Commission: On 14 January 1811, King Friedrich of Württemberg ordered the establishment of a General Administration Commission (GAK) to regulate the economic affairs and debt management of his brother Duke Ludwig of Württemberg. Johann Heinrich von Menoth, Director-General of the Cabinet, was appointed Chairman of the Commission. Other members were Johann Friedrich von Dünger, Director of the Upper Chamber of Finance, and the two Upper Economic Councillors Georg Friedrich Sommer and Ernst Heinrich Faber, the latter in his capacity as Treasurer and Managing Director. The GAK was commissioned on 21 January to be set up by Finance Minister Graf von Mandelslohe on behalf of Cabinet Minister Graf von Taube, who was ill; the next day the constituent meeting took place. The task of the GAK was to confiscate and inventorise the entire furniture assets of Duke Ludwig in the Kingdom of Württemberg, to determine the Duke's assets and liabilities, to draw up a debt repayment plan and to administer the funds set aside for the maintenance of the Duke and his family. The property granted to Duchess Henriette and the ducal children as private property was to be separated from the remaining assets. The reason for the establishment of the GAK lay in the total over-indebtedness of Duke Ludwig, which had already begun during his time in Polish service at the end of the eighties of the 18th century and continued beyond the Prussian and Russian periods of service until Ludwig's move to Württemberg and became increasingly acute. On 17 February 1810 an administrative commission had already been set up with the aim of using part of the ducal Apanage for the repayment of debts, at least to the domestic creditors of Württemberg, and to run Ludwig's court economically. The committee, which was under the responsibility of the Minister of Finance and later referred to as the Particular Administration Commission (PAK), consisted of the Oberfinanzkammerdirektor von Dünger and Ernst Heinrich Faber, who had recently been appointed to the Oberökonomierat (Upper Chamber of Finance Director) and who had already been entrusted with accounting transactions at the court of Duke Ludwig since the end of 1808. This estate, which had served the ducal family at times as a residence, had been given to the duke in 1804 by Tsar Alexander for 50 years for use with all his income. A trip of Ludwig to Russia at the beginning of May 1810, however, had the consequence that this important source of income also soon dried up. In order to protect his valuables remaining in Würzau from the Russian creditors, Ludwig had them shipped to Stuttgart, where they were auctioned off to a large extent by the GAK in the spring of 1811. The tsar then had the Würzau estate's income frozen for four years to satisfy Ludwig's Russian creditors. Seven days after his arrival in Warsaw, on 10 November 1810, the Duke, who was on his way back, was taken into custody by his main Polish creditors. Only after an agreement of his brother, king Friedrich, with the creditors the duke was released from the arrest. An essential part of the agreement was the formation of the GAK, whose unrestricted competence for all of Ludwig's economic affairs was recognised in Warsaw on 26 January 1811, and the determination of assets and liabilities by the GAK was almost completed at the beginning of November 1811. The figures presented to the King in a report showed total assets of 38,943 fl., which were offset by claims of well over one million fl., of which 160,000 fl. were from domestic creditors alone. To make matters worse, the budget set for the two ducal court holdings in Stuttgart and Kirchheim unter Teck was far from sufficient. Therefore, on 13 November 1811, the King ordered the transfer of the bankruptcy proceedings to the Oberappellationstribunal in Tübingen, to which the GAK had to transfer the relevant files for this purpose. The Tutelary Councillor Maximilian Friedrich Römer was appointed bankruptcy trustee, GAK was dissolved in December 1811 and its managing director Faber was dismissed from his position at his own request. The supervision of the economic management of the farm continued to be the responsibility of a commission consisting of Cabinet Minister Graf von Taube, Cabinet Ministerial Director von Menoth and Oberfinanzkammerdirektor von Dünger. Carl Christian Helfferich, the mayor and hospital keeper of Kirchheim, became the managing director of the farm, which is now limited to Kirchheim for cost reasons. Inventory history: Even before the GAK was dissolved, its registry was torn apart by Royal Decree of 13 November 1811. All files necessary for the winding-up of the bankruptcy proceedings should be handed over directly to the Oberappellationstribunal in Tübingen. Since the GAK was still dependent on a part of the registry for the continuation of the remaining business, it was decided to copy the entire file material and to transfer only copies to Tübingen. In the course of copying, however, it turned out that it was not possible to complete this work within a reasonable period of time. On 21 and 29 November, the copies completed by then and the original documents not required by the GAK were sent to Tübingen with a list. While the files sent to Tübingen were sent to the Württembergische Hausarchiv via the later Stuttgart Higher Regional Court in at least two deliveries by July 1906 (today as Bü 18-22, 32-34 of the holdings G 246 in the Main State Archives Stuttgart), the files remaining at the GAK were transferred to the registry of the Cabinet and the State Archives in Stuttgart. They were transferred to the Haus- und Staatsarchiv between 1870 and 1900 as part of a more extensive delivery series. Processor's report: The 30 fascicles of GAK files which had been deposited in the Main State Archives belonged to the E 36 (Ministry of Foreign Affairs I) until the present new indexing as index 28. It is clear from the list of documents submitted that only part of the documents were in a systematic order. Obviously, it was only during the copy campaign carried out in November 1811 that attempts were made to give the files a systematic order. The incomplete file plan, evident from the list of documents submitted to Tübingen, has the following structure:I. GeneraliaII. files referring to the interest of the Duchess Duchess Highness and the Serene Most ChildrenIII. files because of the horse and effect transport from WürzauIV.Highest Resolutions, Decrees and other documents relating to the furniture property, its sale, etc.V.Inventories and inventories of the furniture propertyVI.The active state concerningVII.The passive state concerningVIII.The ducal court keeping in the whole concerning.IX.The economy and its needs concerningVII.The economy and its needs concerningVII.The active state concerningVII.The passive state concerningVIII.The ducal court keeping in the whole concerning.IX.The economy and its needs concerningVII.The economy and its needs concerningVII.The economy and its needs concerningVIII.The economy and its needs concerningVII.The economy and its needs concerningVIII.The economy and its needs concerningVIII.the active state concerningVII.the passive state concerningVIII.the ducal court keeping in the whole concerningV IX.The economy and its needs concerningV.The list of the files entered into the Main State Archives contains the categories:I.[missing]II.The interest of the Lady Duchess (Henriette) Highness and the Serene Children in III. files because of the transport of horses and effects from WürzauIV.The existing furniture property, its sale etc.V.Inventories and directories of the furniture propertyVI.The activity concerning VII.[missing]VIII.The ducal court keeping in the whole concerning IX.Economy and its needsX.The accounting of the economy concerning XI.The use of stamps at the administration commissionThe larger remainder of the written property, mostly account books and business books, older invoices and receipts, was not subject to any rubric order. To all appearances, only the material that could be considered for the Upper Appellate Tribunal had been classified accordingly. The copying work, however, only reached up to column IX, so that the uncopied backs of the writings remained with the GAK or, like the majority of the creditor documents, were handed over in the original to Tübingen. In order to reconstruct the records of the GAK, not only the files listed here, but also the files that have entered the Württembergische Hausarchiv via the Stuttgart Higher Regional Court, the successor institution of the Higher Appeal Tribunal, must be consulted. Further files on Duke Ludwig's debt management, which were not kept by the GAK but by the Ministry of Housing itself, can be found in holdings E 55, Bü 462 and 464 of the Main State Archives.For the new indexing, which was carried out within the scope of the legal clerkship training of the undersigned, an ideal-typical registry order was taken as a basis, which as far as possible is based on the fragmentary file plan of the GAK. 2.1 m in 72 tufts.

Preliminary remark: Karl Ludwig Eugen Schall (born on 25 November 1885), died on 30 January 1980) joined the Grenadier Regiment of Queen Olga (1st Württembergische) No. 119 in 1904 as a junior flag officer, reached the rank of lieutenant general there until World War I, after the outbreak of the war took part as company officer in the battles of the regiment on the West and East Front and was wounded twice. From 1915 Schall worked as a captain and general staff officer, often occupying changing general staff positions at General Command XIII Army Corps, at the 26th Infantry Division, the 14th Infantry Division, General Command V, and at the General Command of the German Armed Forces. Army Corps, 18th Reserve Division, General Command IV Reserve Corps and 10th Reserve Corps. He participated in the fights in Flanders, in the Somme, in the Champagne, in the Ardennes and Argonne, in the Meuse and near Verdun until his demobilisation in 1918. He was mainly concerned with strength and loss reports, interrogation of prisoners, evaluation of aerial photographs, mapping, position building and pioneer questions. From 1933 he again held several changing positions in the General Staff of the V. Army Corps as a Major, in 1939 was Commander of the Stuttgart II Military District as Lieutenant Colonel, from 1940 as Lieutenant Colonel, later as Colonel General Staff Officer in the 554th Army Corps. Infantry Division, with the Army Group A, with the Commander-in-Chief in Serbia, then Chief of the Field Commandantur 747 in Nîmes and was last transferred in 1944 against his own wishes as a war history teacher to the Kriegsakademie. As a pensioner Schall still studied archaeology in Tübingen until his doctorate. Further information on Karl Schall's life can be found in a handwritten curriculum vitae in Bü. 182, in the diaries in Bü. 181 and in the personal file in stock M 430/2, Bü. 1804 with information on his military career until 1919.Parts of the estate of Karl Schall, above all written material from his military service and extensive collections, were offered to the Hauptstaatsarchiv Stuttgart by his son Brigadegeneral a.D. Wolfgang Schall in March 1980 and, after an initial inspection at the estate's premises in April 1980, were handed over to the library of the Hauptstaatsarchiv and the archival records in Department IV (Military Archives) have since formed the M 660 estate of Karl Schall. Since the estate of Karl Schall got into complete disarray and no pre-archival classification scheme was recognizable, it was necessary to develop a classification scheme after the indexing, which should do justice to the multi-layered structures and most different documentation forms, particularly since in the Hauptstaatsarchiv Stuttgart no uniform classification scheme for estates finds application. The documents from the officers' activities, correspondence and personal papers, which besides their general historical significance have a close personal connection to the deceased, were clearly separated from the multi-layered collections. The structure of the documents from the officer's activity reflects the military career of Schall. These are mostly personal copies of official documents in the form of hectographies, prints and other copies, as well as drafts and private documents. A document, which had been taken from the business transactions of the office, was reintegrated into the relevant holdings of the military unit in the Hauptstaatsarchiv Stuttgart. There is a reference in this repertory. The private correspondence was sorted according to correspondent groups and correspondents. Posters and wall attacks, military maps and non-military maps were incorporated into the corresponding collections of the Main State Archives J 151, M 640 and M 650 mainly for conservation reasons. Nevertheless, these pieces have also been incorporated into the present repertory in the form of references, whereby the ordering scheme of the map holdings M 640 for military maps and M 65 0 for non-military maps has been adopted. Maps which have a recognisable connection to documents in Part A have been left there or reunited and have also been incorporated into the collections of the estate as references. For the collection of newspaper clippings, individual newspapers, printed publications and manuscripts from the fields of history, contemporary history, politics, religion, language, literature, science and technology, it seemed necessary to develop as finely structured a classification scheme as possible, since this collection, with approx. 500 numbers, represents the largest part of the collection and was previously only divided into the categories1. Military, 2nd Politics and Contemporary History, 3rd Science and within these categories only chronologically ordered, which made the chronological classification of the frequently undated newspaper clippings possible. It seemed appropriate to make the very multi-layered estate accessible by means of as comprehensive a list of subjects, places and persons as possible. Only a few small map sections from maps that are already available, sketches and notes that seemed to be no longer comprehensible individually and were not in any recognizable connection to other documents, file folders and packaging material were collected. The estate of Karl Schall contains above all informative material about the type of warfare in the First World War. Of particular importance is also the material on non-Württemberg units, most of whose records were destroyed in a bombing raid on Potsdam in April 1945. The drawings on the maps from World War I provide extensive information on the course of the front, combat directions, troop movements, position building and destruction in the front areas and thus complement the M 640 map holdings well. Also noteworthy is the extensive written material on the trials before the military tribunal in Nuremberg against the generals Curt Ritter von Geitner, Hubert Lanz, Karl von Roques and Eugen Wössner, which contains excerpts from the indictments and defence material. In the collections the history of the 20th century up to the 70s is reflected in an astonishingly comprehensive and descriptive way. The collection is not subject to any restrictions of use. In January and February 1984, the M 660 estate of Karl Schall was listed and arranged by Markus Baudisch, a candidate archive inspector, as a rehearsal work in the context of the state examination for the upper archive service and comprises 697 books in 1.55 metres.

Personal history: When he entered the war school in Ludwigsburg (1855), Count Ferdinand von Zeppelin decided to pursue a military career. After his appointment as lieutenant (1858) he was subordinate to the Generalquartiermeisterstab. Commanded to study at the University of Tübingen for a year, he was temporarily transferred to the Corps of Engineers in Ulm after the outbreak of the French-Austrian War (1859) and soon afterwards to the Generalquartiermeisterstab in Ludwigsburg. After various journeys, including to the scenes of the American Civil War, Count Zeppelin was promoted to the Adjutant's Office of King Charles in 1865. At his own request, in April 1868 he was assigned to the tactical department of the Great General Staff in Berlin, but already in the autumn of the following year he was recalled to the Württemberg General Quartermaster Staff. At the beginning of the Franco-German war in 1870/71, Count Zeppelin was assigned to the Württemberg cavalry brigade as a general staff officer. His daring exploration ride through Alsace on 24/25 July 1870 and its distribution in the national press made Count Zeppelin famous and popular for the first time in wide sections of the population. After the war he was entrusted with changing commandos over various cavalry regiments until 1884 when he was appointed colonel of the Württemberg military in Berlin. Allegedly because of an unsuccessful manoeuvre, Count Zeppelin retired in 1890 at the age of 52 as General à la suite of the King of Württemberg. During the American Civil War and in Paris in 1870, Count Zeppelin had become acquainted with the military use of open-air balloons. Already in 1887 he had developed his ideas about the possibilities of airship travel in a memorandum presented to the King of Württemberg. His first airship (LZ 1) ascended on 2 July 1900. In 1906 LZ 2 and LZ 3 started, both designed by the engineer Ludwig Dürr. Graf Zeppelin suffered a severe setback on August 5, 1908, when LZ 4 went up in flames on his 24-hour journey to Echterdingen after loading. Graf Zeppelin achieved the final breakthrough and general social recognition of his idea with the launch of LZ 5, which landed in Berlin on August 25, 1909. With regard to military deployment, Graf Zeppelin had considerably overestimated the possibilities of his airships: 72 of the 96 airships built during the war were lost. Nevertheless, Count Zeppelin accused Reich Chancellor Bethmann-Hollweg of obstructing the full deployment of the airships against England. The only letter of Count Zeppelin received in this estate also refers to this controversy with the Reich government that arose shortly before his death (1917). Inventory history: Count Zeppelin's only daughter Hella had married Alexander von Brandenstein in 1909. At least a part of the estate listed here must have been in their possession or that of their heirs, because some archival records were marked with the stamp "Graf von Brandenstein-Zeppelin'sches Familienarchiv". The estate of Count Zeppelin in M 660/157, which comprises 14 archive units (0.1 m), was recorded in September 1994.Stuttgart, in September 1994Dr. Margit Müller

History of the authorities: With the introduction of the ministerial constitution in the Württemberg state administration, the former old Württemberg state colleges and deputations were transformed into departments by the organisational manifesto of 18 March 1806. As royal colleges they each received a director as chief. As early as 1807, the name "Kollegium" was replaced by the name "Departement" and all internal administration was brought together in one department, all of which was under the direct supervision and direction of the Minister of the Interior. The highest office was formed by a board of directors under the presidency of the minister, which was responsible for "the most null and void affairs of public administration" (Wintterlin Vol. 1 p. 247). The Ministry consisted of the Minister, the President of the Supreme Government, the Directors of the Departments and the oldest Councils. All departments dealt with the business in collegial consultation and were individually referred to as:I. Oberregierungskollegium mit den Unterdepartements1. Department of Criminal Investigation2. Police Department3. OberlehendepartementII OberlandesökonomiekollegiumIII Straßen-, Brücken- und WasserbaudepartementIV. Medical DepartmentIn 1811, the so-called office system was introduced to speed up the course of business. In place of a Directorate General, King Frederick decided, following the example of other states, to order a Council of State, another body to advise on comprehensive matters dealt with by one or more departments at the same time. Now the collegial departments were divided into various smaller ministerial departments - known as sections - which at the same time acted as central authorities for the whole country. There was no authority between the minister and the senior officials during this time. The Department of Home Affairs included:1. the Section of Internal Administration (previously the subdepartments of the Oberregierungskollegium)2. the Section of Internal Administration (previously the subdepartments of the Oberregierungskollegium). The section of the feud3. The Medical Section4. The Section of Roads, Bridges and Hydraulic Engineering5. and 6. The Sections of Municipal Administration and Accounting, which took the place of the Oberlandesökonomiekollegiums, were merged into one Section of Municipal Administration in 1812.According to § 31 of the Organizational Edict of 18 November 1817, the Ministry of the Interior was assigned a college called "Oberregierung" (Upper Government), which existed until 1917, to deal with the affairs requiring collegial consultation. In 1817, the competence of the Interior Administration was extended by the incorporation of the Church and School System, which was separated from the Ministry of the Interior only by decree of 28 October 1849 and established as an independent Ministry as the Department of Church and School System. Until 1918 it was worded in such a way that first of all the rapporteurs were designated and then their business was listed. The first draft of a new business division (1918/19), which was to be subdivided into business divisions, initially provided for eight business divisions. By order of the Ministry of the Interior of 14 October 1922 No. V 7171 (Bü 284), the new business division divided into twelve business circles (I - XII) finally came into force. The business circles formed the basis for the "processing plan" (later business distribution plan), which was created for the first time. He was also responsible for the allocation of files to the officials responsible for handling business on the basis of the processing plan. In the Fifth Organizational Edict of 18 November 1817, the business of the Chancellery Director was described in more detail. His duties initially included only the law firm's business, i.e. monitoring the entire course of business and keeping and countersigning the registers at meetings. He was also in charge of the supervision of the Accounting Chamber integrated into the firm. In the business distributor of 1878 the most important tasks of the later business part I, the execution of the civil service law and the budgeting, are already listed beside the tasks of the Kanzleidirektor. History of the holdings: According to the Service Regulations for the Upper Government of 21 December 1817 and the oath form for the ministerial registrars, files, diaries and registers (directorates) kept in alphabetical order had to be kept at the ministerial registry. In addition, two other aids were available, an alphabetical list of the names of the persons about whom files had been created at the Ministry, and an "Index normalis" for the period 1817 - 1868 (with supplements from the years 1875, 1876). The latter is an alphabetical list of the files in the registry which contained precedents. Another precedent book was created as a continuation of 1868 by Kanzleirat Zeyer. It differs from the "Index normalis" created by Kanzleirat Euting in that it does not only contain precedent traps. The "Index normalis" is arranged purely alphabetically, as well as the Prejudicial Book, but is subdivided according to the material according to the registration plan introduced by Zeyer. The directorate was nevertheless retained and reestablished in 1875. Until 1891, the relevant rubric was added to each entry, then the files were marked with the technical and box signature. Registratur Sibert introduced the following improvements in 1895: The classification system that emerged at the beginning of the 19th century proved to be impractical and outdated over the course of time due to the arbitrary choice of catchwords. Sibert reworked the individual categories and in 1896 carried out extensive Aken excretions. With the draft of a new classification order (registration plan) approved on September 24, 1896, Sibert retained the previous order. However, individual items of a keyword were grouped under one heading, so that the number of main headings was reduced from 167 to 88. In May 1900, Sibert established a new directorate, and on January 1, 1912, three registry departments were formed at the Ministerial Registrar's Office. The basis for the division of the three registry departments was formed by six registry land registers (Directories), which were divided between the three departments as follows:Registries Department I General Repertory Volume I Special Directorate Volume I Special Directorate Volume I General Repertory Volume I Special Directorate Volume III General Repertory Volume II Special Directorate Volume IVDThe three general Directories were divided according to the alphabetical order of the main categories, the three Special Directories according to the alphabetical order of the higher offices, the three Special Directories according to the alphabetical order of the higher offices, and the three Special Directories according to the alphabetical order of the higher offices. Following the division of the Ministry of the Interior into twelve business circles, the previous six registry general ledgers were completed and, from 1923, each business division was assigned its own registry department designated by the number of the business division. Since then, the general ledgers have been laid out as loose-leaf books. In business section I, where around 5000 diary numbers and 4000 personnel file numbers were produced each year, a special arrangement was made in 1925 in which the enema was no longer entered in the diary but in a card file. In the other departments, the practice has remained the same, i.e. all individual cases have been registered in the diary and general ledger. The second part of the general ledger, which was created according to subject areas, comprised the district general ledger, which had been maintained since 1924. Since 1 January 1939, individual cases have only been recorded on an order card index for reasons of rational working methods. Instead of the diary number, these receipts have since carried the bundle number with a corresponding sub-number. As can be seen from the attached concordance, individual groups of files were provided with nine file signatures after 1939. Processing Report: The present holdings are a summary of the following partial deliveries and provisionally formed holdings of the Provenance Ministry of the Interior, Dept. I, Office Directorate:1.

During the revision of the stock extensive files (Az. 751-0301-552 from 13 February 1986) from the time after 1945 were separated and pulled to the stock EA 2/2 Ministry of the Interior department I. For the present repertory, the handover lists mentioned above were merely checked and supplemented, but the form of title recording for repertories was chosen for easier handling of the find book. Individual files of Groups IX (Festivities and Commemorations) and XI (Art and Science) were indexed and recorded in detail by Archivamtmännin Pfeifle as early as 1975. since further job files were identified during the compilation of the partial holdings, it was necessary to merge the files of the special job file index of 1958 as well as the special index attached to it ("Personalakte" der Landratsämter) to delivery number 144. The previous special directory for serial number 145 has been provided with the new bundle numbers and can therefore still be used. The classification of the inventory was based on the rules of procedure of January 1923. A concordance of the bundle numbers to the previous serial numbers of the delivery lists is attached to the find book. The now united stock was revised and repackaged by the archive employees Hans Meissner and Kurt Lohmüller in the period 1981 - 1984 according to the instructions of the undersigned. The typewritten work was carried out by Mrs. Else Schwelling and Mrs. Gisela Filipitsch. The collection comprises 3161 numbers (100.5 m).Stuttgart, April 1986Walter Wannenwetsch

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.

Biography: Wilhelm (III.) Prince von Urach was born on 27 September 1897 in Stuttgart as the son of Wilhelm (II.) Duke of Urach Count of Württemberg and the Amalie Duchess of Urach Countess of Württemberg née Duchess of Württemberg in Bavaria. He first attended the Hayersche Knabeninstitut in Stuttgart and from 1908 the Karlsgymnasium in Stuttgart, where he graduated from high school in 1914. On 3 August 1914 he was drafted into the Field Artillery Regiment No. 13 King Karl. Already on 18 August 1914 he was appointed lieutenant. During the First World War Wilhelm Fürst von Urach served mainly in the Reserve Field Artillery Regiment No. 26, in the General Command Carpathian Corps (IV. Reserve Corps) and in the Württemberg Reichswehr-Schützen Regiment 25 and was deployed in France, Poland, Flanders, Serbia, the Carpathians and in Bukovina. Already in 1916 Wilhelm Fürst von Urach - probably at the request of his father - enrolled as a war student in law at the University of Tübingen. His real interest, however, was in technology and engineering. Wilhelm Fürst von Urach therefore studied mechanical engineering at the Technical University of Stuttgart from 1919 to 1922. After his studies he worked for the automobile companies Steiger in Burgrieden near Laupheim, Cockerell in Munich and Bugatti in Molsheim/Elsass. In 1927 he moved to Daimler-Benz. There he initially worked as a designer in Untertürkheim. From 1933 he belonged to the management secretariat. In 1937 he was appointed chief engineer. During the Second World War, he was the industrial representative responsible for the technical management of the Renault automobile plant in occupied France. 1945 Wilhelm Fürst von Urach returned to the management secretariat of Daimler-Benz. From 1946 to 1950 he was in charge of the Untertürkheim car test management. In 1954, Wilhelm Fürst von Urach was granted power of attorney. Wilhelm Fürst von Urach married Elisabeth Theurer on 19 June 1928 against the resistance of his father. She was the daughter of Richard Theurer, General Manager of G. Siegle.
