Carl Eduard Becker

[David M]

Hi

I am trying to find out the career details of Carl Eduard Becker, who according to my records was a prussian GM by 18.11.1886 however, does not seem to be in the SF series by Priesdorf. Maybe this has something to do with him being from Hessen-Darmstadt originally? However some other former HD Generals are in SF so I am really puzzled about that.

Could someone help me with career and ODM? That would be a great addition to my CHWO entry on him

Thanks in advance

regards

Hi Daniel

Thanks for that! Can't say I am familiar with Kleist, would you have the full bibliography on that?

In contrary to Priesdorff Bogislav von Kleist covers ALL Prussian Generals up to 1894.

It is a HAS TO HAVE for everybody who deals with this theme.

I will see to give You the bio.

Hi Daniel

Much appreciated. Tomorrow I will visit the Royal Library at The Hague in order to get some of the details I need. They do have the Priesdorf and a complete set of Prussian Statecalenders since 1850 orso, but not the Kleist volumes you mentioned.
