    Is there a 'central archive' of records available in Germany for research of individual German soldiers of 1914-1918?

    Or were such records kept by Prussia, Bavaria, Wurtemburg, etc., and if so, did they survive and where are they?

    I am wondering if for 1914-1918, there is a service similar such as Deutche Dienststelle (WASt), which offers a tracing service for Wehrmacht KIA/Missing during WW2.

    Hi Ken,

    Every State kept its own records - most of the Prussian records in Berlin were lost during WWII. I got some of my Grandfathers records from Generallandesarchiv Karlsruhe for Baden and Hauptstaatsarchiv Stuttgart for W?rttemberg
