In order to be able to record the deaths of the Saxon army by name, death lists were drawn up for the period from 1756 to 1818. In addition, after the First World War, the Saxon war losses for the period of the Thirty Years War 1618 / 1648 up to the colonial campaigns in 1907 in D e u t s c h - S ü d w e s t a f r i k a were recorded statistically. These statistical data were part of the research on German military history.For further information see 2.3.8 Military

History of the holder: 1867 Foundation of the Federal Chancellery as the central authority for the direct administrative tasks of the North German Confederation (postal and telegraph services, consular affairs) with the exception of foreign affairs, the supervision of the implementation of federal law by the individual states, the preparation of federal legislation and the federal budget as well as the editing of the Federal Law Gazette; After the founding of the German Reich in 1871, the tasks were considerably expanded and the office was renamed the Reich Chancellery; from 1873, successive spin-offs of Reich offices subordinate to the Reich Chancellery (1873 Reich Railway Office, 1875 Reich Post Office, 1877 Reich Office of Justice and Ministry for Alsace-Lorraine, 1879 Reich Treasury); 1879 renamed Reich Office of the Interior. Inventory description: Inventory history The Imperial Offices, which were established at the end of the 1970s, took over the files relating to their respective tasks from the Imperial Chancellery as preliminary files in order to carry out their current business activities. The rest remained with the Reich Office of the Interior, so that the present fonds came to the Reich Archives exclusively via the new Reich Offices and were only formed into a fonds here. As the files of the Reich Chancellery were continued organically in the Reich Offices, the delimitation of the holdings was often arbitrary when the files were transferred to the Reich Archives. After being relocated during the Second World War, the German Central Archive in Potsdam (later the Central State Archive in Potsdam) took over the Reich Chancellery after 1945. Due to the lack of older finding aids, it is not possible to provide specific information about losses due to the war. However, it can be inferred from the shelfmarks of the individual volumes of files that the losses remained low. Archival evaluation and processing The first processing of the Reich Chancellery fonds took place from June 1956 to February 1957 at the German Central Archives in Potsdam. With the exception of the secret files, the fonds were simply indexed. In its short history, the Federal and Reich Chancellery had not been able to find a truly stable organizational form. As a result, it was not possible to find or reconstruct a long-term registry scheme. The revision of the 1972 Findbuch required for printing therefore only allowed for slight editorial corrections. While largely retaining the thematic order created on the basis of the task structure, volumes of files were only reassigned to their original structural parts in individual cases. Due to the high value of the holdings, the cassation rate was essentially limited to multiple transfers. Characterization of content: Workers' insurance; poor relief; emigration 1867; banking; building and property matters; civil service matters; relations with foreign countries; financial matters from the war of 1870/71 1870; trade and commerce; home affairs; justice; consular affairs; weights and measures; medical police; Militaria; coinage and monetary affairs; pension and support affairs; police affairs; postal affairs; Reich budget affairs; Reich Chancellery; Reich debt affairs; Reichstag; taxes; subsidies; constitution and administration; insurance affairs; veterinary police; customs affairs; personnel files.
