House Order of Hohenzollern - info needed

[Komtur]

Rick, Komtur,

Fritz Vieth was the former 3. Lothringisches Infanterie-Regiment Nr. 135 Vieth (Hptm 1.10.13 B50b) and still in that rank in the 1919 Dienstaltersliste. Magdeburgisches J?ger-Bataillon Nr. 4 Leutnant Vieth was promoted to Oberleutnant with a Patent of 27.1.15 J52i and was still in that rank in the 1919 Dienstaltersliste.

Hi Friends,

all in all I have already 610 REAL dates for Hohenzollern Knights crosses with swords in WW1.

Thanks to all of You for showing me Your stuff.

But there are still some more around, or???

Best regards

Daniel

Daniel,

From their award documents, three that you may already have:

Leutnant der Reserve Ernst Paczoch, IR 175, 26. Februar 1917, Rollennr. 5140

Leutnant der Reserve Heinrich Giesbert, FAR 69, 10. Juni 1918, Rollennr. 7251

Leutnant Oskar Wiss, IR 99, 17. Juni 1918, Rollennr. 7393

With 142 awards in just one week, June 1918 must have been a busy month at the Generalkommission.

[Daniel Krause]

BTW, October 1918 had 831 awards, THAT is busy....

Hi Friends,

I want to bring this theme back to top and to ask again for assistance.

Who can show Hohenzollern documents?

I?m especially interested in late 1918 awards and awards to guys with more-than-common names like M?ller or Lehmann.

At the moment I have already more than 300 additional names than Willi Geile had in his first Hohenzollern roll from the mid-90ies.

Best regards

Daniel

Hi Daniel,

[Daniel Krause]

Best regards

Daniel

Hi Guys,

Acual "score":

[webr55]

Got him already?

Apparently a "Leutnant Heinz"... and the first pic shows him with the "fresh" HHOX, apparently 15.9.18...

[Daniel Krause]

Thanks,

I?m just afraid, Heinz is his first name...

Best regards

Daniel
