He was "Evangelisch" according to the Offizier-Stammliste of Leib-Grenadier-Regiment Nr. 8. His father was one Oberverwaltungsgerichtsrath Oskar Hahn and his mother Helene n?e Malotki von Trzebiatowski.

Right, I also have his father as Oberverwaltungsgerichtsrat. Well, he might be converted, but of Jewish descent.

This still doesn't explain why he was ennobled. I wonder whether it's got something to do with his mother's family. There were several Generals Malotki von Trzebiatowski.

Mike,

I came across some more information on Graf von Schlieffen in a series on Fl?geladjutanten in the "Zeitschrift f?r Heeres- und Uniformkunde" in the early forties:

He was assigned to the Military Examinations Commission on the 7th of November 1917 with a definitive retirement date of 25 October 1919 with permission to wear the uniform of the Corps of Cadets. He was promoted char. Oberst on 26 January 1921 and died on the 31 July 1938.

Glenn

The father of Helene Hahn (mother of Johannes von Hahn) Malotki von Trzebiatowski was as Oberstleutnant/Oberst commander of the 6. Pommersches Infanterie-Regiment Nr. 49 in Stargard. Does anyone have a first name? Gustav August Wilhelm Malotki von Trzebiatowski? Thanks!

Dear Glenn, as you wrote, August Ludwig Oskar Johannes von Hahn received the RAO with OL and Swords (1915) and the Crown (1918) in WWI. Do you happen to know, what else? Maybe EK II and I?

 

Thank you
