WOO (W?rrtemberg Olga-Orden)

[David M]

Hi

I found here http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olga-Orden that this order was mainly awarded to nurses. I have in my data the WOO awarded to a man

My questions regarding this order:

1. How rare were decorations to men (is there a full list or maybe a records of the number to men somewhere)

2. Is it possible to trace a date of award (basically requiring the same as ad 1.)

3. What was Dietzsch final record (basically enquiring as to any prussian awards such as a PROA4 as he was a Professor) on ODM in the 1874 or 1875 Prussian Staatshanbuch

My data:

Gustav Adolf Dietzsch (geboren 31.01.1808, gestorben 09.09.1875); Stiftsprediger und Di?cesan-Vorstand zu Oehringen ; 1870 Professor der systematischen Theologie an der Universit?t in Berlin.

1871 WOO; 1871 D70/71; SEK3

Hof und Staatshandbuch des K?nigreich W?rttemberg 1873 S. 137 und 595.

thanks and regards

1. No, this is not rare, the Olga Orden likely was bestowed to more men than woman

2. You can trace it in the State Archive of Wuerttemberg, Stuttgart, Inventory E 16 (Orders and Medals), in the Archive of Hohenlohe - Neuenstein you can find some records about your Stiftsprediger Delitzsch

3. ? (sorry)

Best regards
