A very interesting case: this notice from Dortmunder Zeitung, 30.7.1934, is about the promotion of Polizei-OTL Magnus who had received the HHOX. 

According to the DAL Schupo Preußen 1933, first name is Bruno, born 1884:

He might be the HdL from RFußAR 11 in our list, but I cannot tell. 

New first name: Otto Apprecht

Not sure which one in our list this would be: Theodor Brandt, who later became pastor in Dortmund.

Notice about him in Kölner Local-Anzeiger, 9.9.1943

Here's another one I am unsure of, no rank given, not in the list, could also be a Princely one:

Matthias Wielputz (might be Wielpütz, there was a Lt dR with that name in IR 30).

Kölner Local-Anzeiger, 17.7.1918

Ah no - in November he is listed as Unteroffizier for his EK1. So his Hohenzollern must have been a medal to the Princely House Order I guess. 

New first name: Josef Sassenberg

In a discussion with other collectors, this name appeared: Karl Andreas Ernst  Becker, Oberregierungsrat in Dresden! 

Well he got the officers cross of Brunswick, so it might be a good fit. 

Ah! Good candidate! According to the DOA1908, he held an RAO4, Saxon LD2 and the Austrian Franz Joseph. He was head of the Kriminalpolizei Dresden at the time. So if you can confirm the Brunswick order, this should be him. 

Just a typo in our list: It should be Eberhard Mohnicke, not Mohnike. 

New first name: Julius Schulte-Niederbauer

From Iserlohner Kreisanzeiger und Zeitung, 28.5.1918

Some more info on Wilhelm Rau (1886-1960), from Iserlohner Kreisanzeiger und Zeitung, 9.11.1921:

Also here: https://www.menden.de/fileadmin/user_upload/Leben_in_Menden/Stadtarchiv/pdf/Rau-Wilhelm.pdf

Cannot find an August Rawen-Bochum. I wonder if he is the Lt dL Raven in our list.

From Iserlohner Kreisanzeiger und Zeitung, 25.8.1917

This should be a new one: OTL aD Ernst Böther-Schultze
