dksck Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 I was looking through on-line sources to find information about 2. Bayern Artillerie Regiment in the 1870s and keep finding the word "Brodeffer" or "Brodesser". Unfortunately, I can't find a definition for the word anywhere. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glenn J Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 Not a definition but a person: Karl Ritter von Brodeßer, the Regimental "Inhaber" (literally owner) or honorary regimental chief from 1870 to 1876. Regards Glenn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dksck Posted November 29, 2015 Author Share Posted November 29, 2015 Thanks guys! Sometimes I can't find the forest for the trees. I had found the stuff on Wiki and some other sites, but when I was looking over all the on-line sources such as the Regierungsblatt, I was finding this kind of stuff: https://books.google.com/books?id=K-pTAAAAcAAJ&pg=PR48-IA58&dq=Brodeffer&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwi9u5yG4rTJAhVD4SYKHcvUCcEQ6AEIHzAA#v=onepage&q=Brodeffer&f=false Rather than the name of the Regiment, I somehow came to the conclusion that it must be some sort of rank in the Regiment or a duty position related to the laying of the guns. Thank you again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
