Archival history

History: The Stübel family has been documented in Dresden since 1641. Christoph Carl Stübel (1764 - 1828), Professor of Criminal Law at the Faculty of Law in Wittenberg, founded the Stübel dynasty of lawyers. In 1815 he had been commissioned to draw up a criminal code for Saxony. As a legal teacher he taught the princes Friedrich, Clemens and Johann. In 1819 he was appointed Royal Saxon Court and Justice Councillor. Other important personalities of the Stübel family were Oscar Wilhelm Stübel (1846 - 1921), colonial director in the Foreign Ministry of the German Reich from 1900 to 1905, Moritz Alphons Stübel (1835 - 1904), important geologist and researcher, and Alfred Paul Stübel (1827 - 1895), Lord Mayor of Dresden from 1880 to 1895.<br /><br />contents: genealogical collection (school reports, study certificates, appointments, documents of professional activity, letters, photographs) - documents from the professional activity of Oskar Stübel as private secretary of King Johann of Saxony, as consul in the USA, Samoa, Shanghai, Santiago and as colonial director (German South West Africa, Herero Uprising) - art historical and cultural historical research by Moritz Stübel Books on the history of law.<br /><br />>Comprehensive introduction: Origin and important representatives of the Stübel<br family /><br /><br />>In his genealogical research, Moritz Stübel succeeded in tracing the origin of his ancestors back to a Jacob Stiefel (died 1611) from Brandobersdorf not far from Wetzlar. His son Andreas Stübel had moved away during the Thirty Years' War and settled in Dresden in 1641. The distillery helped him to achieve some prosperity, so that he was able to enable his sons Johann Jacob Stübel (1652 - 1721) and Andreas Stübel (1653 - 1725) to study, which later enabled them to become the headmaster of the state school in Meißen and the deputy headmaster of the Thomas School in Leipzig.<br />Christoph Carl Stübel (1764 - 1828), Professor of Criminal Law at the Faculty of Law in Wittenberg, founded the Stübel dynasty of lawyers. A family tree created by Moritz Stübel in 1902 shows that this profession was passed on over generations.<br />Oscar Wilhelm Stübel (1846 - 1921), Colonial Director in the Foreign Ministry of the German Reich from 1900 to 1905, and Alfred Paul Stübel (1827 - 1895), Lord Mayor of the City of Dresden from 1880 to 1895, were important personalities of the Stübel family.<br /><br /><br />Biographien<br />1 Christoph Carl Stübel (1764 - 1828)<br />1 husband of 2, father of 3, 4, 6, 5, grandfather of 8, great-grandfather of 9<br /><br />was born on 09.03.1764 in Pausitz near Wurzen.

At the turn of the 20th century, Stübel had begun to create a family archive and had collected documents about his ancestors until the 1930s and 1940s. <br />Stübel's genealogical order began with his great-grandparents Christoph Carl Stübel and Jo-hanna Caroline Tittmann, to whom he assigned not only personal documents but also documents of their ancestors. To the sons Otto Moritz, Carl Julius, Carl Bruno and Anselm Bruno, who emerged from this connection, he also assigned documents on their wives, children and grandchildren. Stübel established his own collections because of their outstanding professional significance for Moritz Alphons Stübel and Oskar Wilhelm Stübel. In another part, documents on Ocsar Stübel were found in the documents of the Hainewalde manor taken over from the Damastmuseum Großschönau, extracted and indexed by Jörg Ludwig together with the other archives to be assigned to Oscar Stübel in his function as Colonial Director in the Foreign Ministry of the German Reich. These archives originally formed the holdings 12829.<br />The remaining unexploited holdings received the signature 12619. Its cataloguing took place in August 2005, when the personal estate of Oscar Stübel and the family estate were reunited in accordance with the original order and deposited under the holdings signature 12829.<br />The order conceived by Moritz Stübel was retained as far as it was suitable for cataloguing and only cleaned up in a few exceptions. Loose photographs have been taken from the archives and listed separately. Moritz Stübel's personal documents were combined under a separate classification point. After packing, the stock comprises 5.10 running metres.
