Jock Auld Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 BRS, Guys, out the skip today, a lot of TR stuff but this is more your thing, a complete families history skipped. Sadly some of it is has already been pushed by the JCB and is now irretrievable. Best Rich 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saschaw Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 I'm not too good at comparing faces, but it might be Generalmajor a. D. Adolf Steinwachs (1868–1945) who has been shown here. I also added one photo with all of his medals that was sold on ebay years ago, and in which he wears a most similar mustache... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jock Auld Posted September 3, 2023 Author Share Posted September 3, 2023 Thanks for the comparison, I don't know not really my area, I think your bloke has more sticky out ears. I am just miffed as I don't know what else was destroyed.. Cheers Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stogieman Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 I think Saschaw nailed it, looks like the same guy to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenn J Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Gentlemen, the general is Karl Berger (1858-1936), a pre war pioneer and railway regiment officer. He ultimately rose to the command of the 119. Infanterie-Division and was promoted to char. Generalleutnant on 30 August 1919.

Jock Auld Posted November 17, 2023 Author Share Posted November 17, 2023 Thanks Glen, It was the ears that stuck out for me. I suppose he is local to my area here in Bergen 29303? Or is the picture perhaps from wider family? Hope you are keeping well. Best Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
