1. to the biography: Friedrich Facius was born on 17.8.1907 in Winzlar (GDR). After graduating from high school in 1927-1933, he studied history, German and Latin in Berlin, Jena and Heidelberg. He completed his studies with a doctorate from Willy Andreas, to whom he later felt a lifelong connection. In 1933 he began his preparatory service for the archive career in the Weimar State Archives. From 1935 to 1947 he headed the Landesarchiv Altenburg (Saxony), but remained in Weimar during this time. In 1939, he became State Archives Councillor. From 1952 to 1961 he was at the Federal Archives Koblenz, then the first State Archives Council at the branch of the Main State Archives Stuttgart in Ludwigsburg; there he became Chief State Archives Councilor in 1962. The last station of his professional life was Freiburg i. Br., where from 1967 to 1972 he was Director of the State Archives at the then branch of the General State Archives in Karlsruhe. Until shortly before his death in 1983 he was still scientifically active. 2nd inventory history: In 1983, his wife handed over the extensive estate of Friedrich Facius to the General State Archive in Karlsruhe. From its large library, the archive only took over the historical works and the Badenia. The publications of Friedrich Facius deal with topics of Thuringian regional history as well as industrial and economic history; in the latter he has worked intensively into the history of Baden, of which numerous publications on the F1uss-, shipping and port history of the Upper Rhine area bear witness. He has also dealt with the history of landscape design over many years and has published several essays on it. Friedrich Facius was a member of the Gesellschaft zur Förderung des Deutschen Rheinschifffahrtsmuseums in Mannheim e.V. (Society for the Promotion of the German Rhine Navigation Museum in Mannheim), the Kirchengeschichtlichen Verein für das Erzbistum Freiburg (Association for the History of the Church in the Archdiocese of Freiburg), the Alemannisches Institut (Alemannic Institute), the Kommission für Gesch. Regional studies in Baden-Württemberg and the Breisgau History Association. He was also a member of the scientific working group for Central Germany and the Fürst-Pückler-Gesellschaft. The estate of Friedrich Facius was already handed over to the General State Archives in a preliminary form, whereby the contents were summarized: For example, correspondence on individual issues was enclosed with the corresponding publications and lectures. The editors have now made an effort to bring the material into a systematic order. Membership in historical associations and general correspondence were put at the beginning under the heading 'Personal'. By far the largest part of the estate is, however, the scientific work of Friedrich Facius. It is now arranged thematically in 9 points. A collection of special editions was dissolved and material collections on various historical topics, which - as far as can be seen - did not give rise to any publications or lectures, were collected in accordance with the corresponding norms. The indexes to the bibliography have also been classified under this heading. The Facius estate now comprises 117 fascicles, housed in 18 boxes. The regulatory and registry work was carried out by M. Reiling and R. Gomringer under the supervision of the undersigned. The repertory was prepared as part of the MIDOSA project of the State Archive Administration. Mrs. L. Hessler took care of the title recordings and the corrections. Karlsruhe spring 1985 M. Salaba

Biography: Friedrich August Haselwander (1859-1932) studied mathematics, physics, chemistry, botany, mineralogy, economics and electronics at the Technical University of Karlsruhe, the Universities of Strasbourg and Munich. In self-study he additionally acquired knowledge in the engineering sciences. In 1886, in Offenburg, where he was born, he constructed a DC dynamo machine from which he developed the three-phase generator, a world first. In 1891 he founded the Badische Elektrizitätswerke in Lahr, where he worked until their liquidation in 1893. In cooperation with Adolf Kolbe, he applied for his patents at home and abroad and knew how to draw financial benefit from them. After disputes over the copyright of his three-phase generator patent, Haselwander increasingly devoted himself to the development of motors. In 1897 he applied for a patent for the first compressorless crude oil engine. After working as a partner and technical director of the patent exploitation syndicate Haselwander, Wenk-Wolff and Genossen in Mannheim, as co-founder and partner of Maschinenfabrik Haselwander, among others.

The present collection is a further, striking result of the focus of the work of the State Archives of Freiburg: the consolidation and indexing of deliveries from lower authorities. The aim of this merger is on the one hand to streamline the tectonics of the Freiburg State Archives and on the other to facilitate research by interested users. This inventory now includes 64 deliveries of documents from the Freiburg Local Court and its predecessor authorities. It reflects the entire spectrum of the tasks of a district court and thus provides deep insights into everyday life and the disputes associated with it. The following holdings were integrated into inventory G 540/5 in the course of indexing: B 18/1; B 18/7; B 18/14; B 18/25; B 18/26; B 18/28; B 18/29; B 18/30; B 18/32; B 18/33; B 18/37; B 18/38; B 18/39; B 18/41; B 18/42; B 18/43; B 18/44; B 19/1; E 159/1; E 159/2; E 159/3; E 159/4; E 159/5; E 159/6; E 159/7; E 159/8; E 159/9; E 159/10; E 159/11; E 159/12; E 159/13; E 160/1; G 540/6; G 540/7; G 540/8; G 540/9; G 540/10; G 540/11; G 540/12; G 540/13; G 540/14; G 540/15; G 540/16; G 540/17; G 540/18; G 540/19; G 540/20; G 540/21; G 540/22; G 540/23; G 540/24; G 540/25; G 540/26; G 540/27; G 540/28; G 540/29; G 540/30; G 540/31; G 540/49; G 540/51.The collection was catalogued by the archive employee Rolf-Peter Höfler in the years 2015/2016. Project management and final correction were the responsibility of the undersigned. The inventory G 540/5 now comprises 15,092 title records with a total volume of 128 running metres. Parts of the inventory are still subject to the blocking periods of the Landesarchivgesetz.Freiburg, in April 2016Kurt Hochstuhl

The stand E 905/1 was originally named "Forstamt Donaueschingen" and was renamed "Forstämter" in March 2016. He not only recorded the files of the Donaueschingen Forestry Office, but also all documents of individual B-Series and E-Series forest holdings in the Freiburg State Archives. This is in line with the basic strategy of the State Archives of Freiburg to merge small and small holdings into collections that are clear and easy to use for users. In this context, the following stocks have been integrated into stock E 905/1:B 1147/1; B 1149/1; B 1149/2; B 1153/1; B 1153/2; B 1154/1; B 1157/1; B 1158/1; B 1159/1; B 1159/2; B 1160/1; B 1166/1; B 1168/1; B 1171/1; B 1171/2; B 1173/1; B 1175/1; B 1179/1; B 1179/2; B 1183/1; B 1188/1; B 1191/1; B 1195/1; B 1201/1; B 1206/2; B 1209/1; B 1210/1; B 1212/1; B 1215/1; B 1216/1; B 1220/1; B 1239/1; E 911/1; E 914/1; E 919/1; E 919/2; E 919/3; E 922/1; E 923/1; E 924/1; E 926/1; E 940/1; E 944/1; E 947/1; E 950/1; E 950/2.Since the beginning of the 19th century, the organisation of forestry in Baden has been subject to numerous organisational changes, of which only one should be mentioned briefly for reasons of comprehensibility of the names of the authorities. Since the beginning of the 1830s, both district forest offices and forestry offices have existed on the lower administrative level, with the Sprengel of a forest office each consisting of several district forest offices. At the end of the 19th century, the district forest offices were renamed forestry offices. The forestry offices that had existed since the 1830s in their role as superior authorities had already been abolished. The following terminology was selected for the distortion: If a district forest office later developed from a district forest office, the name forest office was chosen, even if files of the provenance district forest office are available in the appropriate subdivision point. Individual foreign provenances, such as documents from domain administrations or tax offices, are mostly to be regarded as previous files and have been left in the inventory. 40 district forest offices and forest offices as well as one forest inspection and one forest accounting each are combined in this inventory. The mass of documents covers the period from the beginning of the 19th century to the beginning of the 1950s. Regardless of the numerous registration layers, attempts were made to apply a comparatively uniform classification scheme for the records:- Initially, the documents were allocated to the respective forestry offices on the basis of provenance - as far as practicable. The designation of the respective forestry office then also forms the first component of each title record - followed by the (contemporary) division into one of the four main file groups as a second component in the title records: 1. general or 2. domains or 3. community and body forests (sometimes also community, corporate and private forests) or 4. private forests. The third component is the (contemporary) file rubric, i.e. "Forstpolitik" or "Forststrafrecht", which is followed by the actual title entry, sometimes supplemented by information in brackets, after the hyphen. the system thus chosen allows for a maximum of clarity, irrespective of the heterogeneity of the documents. the inventory E 905/1 comprises 2857 fascicles and measures 36.5 lfd.m.

Contents and evaluation Preliminary remark By Gisela Scharlau The tax files of Jewish citizens taken over by the Heilbronn tax office in 1999 contain documents on all common types of taxes such as income tax, property tax, trade tax and turnover tax from the period from 1913 to 1943. They also contain correspondence, purchase contracts, documents on tax audits, tax proceedings, etc. Since the persons concerned are exclusively Jewish citizens of Heilbronn who were either able to emigrate or were deported during the Third Reich, the special features are the Reich Flight Tax levied since 1931 on emigration, the Jewish property levy due in 5 instalments in 1938/1939 and other reprisals directed against the Jews such as the delivery of valuables and the compulsory purchase in Jewish old people's homes. In the end, the formerly wealthy people affected were mostly destitute and often still dependent on the support of relatives abroad (the permits of the foreign exchange offices for the payment of the money are enclosed), who had succeeded in emigrating in time. The files also contain the "tax clearance declaration" required for emigration. It was usually valid for 6 months and was extended several times, in many cases it was completely useless and no longer saved the victims from deportation. In addition to police deregistrations with emigration data, the files also contain deportation data. "("The Jew ... was expatriated in the calendar year 1942 and deported from the Reich" or "now in the East".) In addition to files of individuals, the collection contains company files of Jewish companies, most of which had already ceased operations (until 1938). The people mainly come from Heilbronn, but a large part also come from other parts of Württemberg, mainly from Stuttgart. These are mostly elderly people who were forcibly transferred from Stuttgart old people's homes to the Jewish old people's home Eschenau near Heilbronn. Most of the persons concerned were either deported to Riga on 01.12.1941 or to Theresienstadt on 22.08.1942 and, with very few exceptions, murdered. When these files were recorded, an attempt was made to also ascertain the life data of the family members concerned, insofar as these were included in the tax documents. In addition to life data and occupation, the places of residence or company headquarters should also provide information about the fate of the people; a local register should make it easier to find people coming from other places. Additions to the title entry were taken from the three publications listed below and placed in square brackets. The logical additions resulting from the files are in round brackets. A list of abbreviations explains the abbreviations used. The inventory K 26 comprises 170 title records; some files are heavily mouldy. The duration of the tax files begins in 1913 and ends in 1943. All parts of the files created after 1945 relate to reparations proceedings.
