Friedrich von Marschall

[David M]

Dear Gents!

Would there be a way to find out the orders and decorations of:

4f. Friedrich von Marschall, geboren Spangenberg 26.12.1878, 1915 Oberleutnant der Landwehr J?ger I, kgl. preuss. Hauptmann a.D., verstorben Marburg 16.12.1949,

my interest is purely genealogical, his mother was a born M?ldner von M?lnheim

I would also like to know the exact information about his promotion in 1915 (date e.g.)

Thanks so much!

David

Dear David,

I read your post while doing some research. I have some pieces from Friedrich von Marschall's estate. I'm attaching a few snapshots with information. I hope it helps you a little.

Best regards Lenni

 

 

 

PS: my picture is of the father ...

Hi,

I found this from the Stammliste of the Kurhessisches Jäger Bataillon 11:

This is a very interesting, albeit old post ... the painting states, he left behind three children from the first marriage, but he had six children alltogether. His first Friedrich, Friedrich IV. von Marschall, died three months after birth. His second Friedrich and sixth child was Hauptmann a. D. Karl August Friedrich V. von Marschall (retired in 1910/11 as Oberleutnant and the right to wear the uniform). Friedrich V. married 1910: Three daughters and son Heinrich Viktor Friedrich (b. 1920).

 

I love the painting of the father! Do you have a close up, Lenni72? Thanks! What is the order to the right of the Red Eagle Orden? Something from Hessen-Kassel?

It could have well been painted from a photograph as the original image.

The story goes there house in Bretterode was badly insolated or very humid and thats the reason half the kids did.not make it. I met HVF (last of the original line of his family) 25 years ago, very kind old man who I am sure is no longer with us. The story of his family is one starting off so long ago and producing so many military officers, a.o. an Oberst and Cavalrycommander during the 1813-1815 wars.
