Glenn J Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 Andreas, Oberstleutnant Scholl, Regimental Commander Feldartillerie-Regiment Nr. 9 28 November 1905 - 21 May 1908. Regards Glenn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenn J Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 Dave, Can you confirm the award? The award to him is certainly shown in the 1913 edition of the Militär-Musiker-Adreßbuch für das Deutsche Reich. And Oberstleutnant Scholl is Franz Scholl.

Glenn J Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 Up to 1891, all domestic and foreign awards were listed in the Saxon Army Lists by award. Unfortunately, then, the practice ceased. This is from 1891. Regards Glenn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
christerd Posted January 8, 2012 Author Share Posted January 8, 2012 A new update is ready for delivery ! app 100 names , now with Grand Cross ( among them Hermann Göring ! ) another famous Sword Order winner was Karl Dönitz , with this I think I have about 90-95 % of all Germans with Sword Order from 1914-1945 what I miss is the earlier ones and maybe a few from the above time frame. But I have already oredred a couple of new books so I will return with more updates. Christer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

christerd Posted July 14, 2013 Author Share Posted July 14, 2013 Hallo all , its been some time but now i have a lot of new names of german Officers with Swedish Order of the Sword , mostly awarded in late 1800s. I think it will be app 100 names when I gone through the new lists. The complete list contains about 700 names before this update most with surnames , if anyone want the complete list just let me know or if you just want the update . Sorry to say my last email program crashed so i dont know who I sent to last year , so let me know again if you are interested Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
christerd Posted August 6, 2013 Author Share Posted August 6, 2013 The updated database is finished ! It took some time But now it contains 1062 names of Germans who got the Swedish Order of the Sword in different grades. I have two members who already said they want the new list , but I will be happy to send it to anyone who want a reserach tool , in most it have both First names and surnames , rank and state . It is in Excel format so its easy to handle. The first listed award is in 1836 and the last in June 1939 Just mail me or write in the thread and I send a copy . Sunny regards from Sweden Christer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rick Research Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 What was the award year for Hauptmann Heinrich Wambold of K.P. Inf Rgt 28, please? The closest I could come was between Rank Lists of 1911 and 1912: My only other "Swede" year question is for the later Konteradmiral Heinrich Kehrhahn: Now that you've finished with the "sword," does that mean you can start on the "Vasa" and "North Star"?

Glenn J Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 Rick, Royal permission to wear was gazetted in the 12 December 1911 edition of the Militär-Wochenblatt. Regards Glenn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenn J Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 Rick, Christer may well have the exact date but this from the 1925 Swedish "Statskalender". Regards Glenn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
christerd Posted August 6, 2013 Author Share Posted August 6, 2013 I only have 1911 on Heinrich Wambold but Heinrich Kehrhahn was listed September 12th 1908 . And Rick has a point , now I have to start with North Star and Wasa ... I must have something to do in the long dark autumn evenings in Sweden . If I find some more updates to this list I let you all know . Christer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rick Research Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 (edited) Thank Christer! Yes indeed, LOTS of German dR/dL officers with the civil Swedish Orders... and no first names (or day jobs) in the Rank Lists. These "little jobs" grow and grow and then suddenly it's too late and you have turned into a Research Gnome.

christerd Posted August 8, 2013 Author Share Posted August 8, 2013 I started looking through old dusty books for Wasa Orders and instantly found some interesting names .... For Example : Wilhelm Mauser who got a Knight Wasa Order in 1878 , yes Mauser who together with his brother made the Gewehr 71 and the same factory that made the famous Gewehr 98 who is like the grandfather of bolt action rifles today.
