Brief description: David Kölle; Hofflaschnermeister; Friedrich Ludwig Mörrath; master carpenter; born 1850; Friedrich Otto Mörrath; carpenter, naturopath; 1880-1944; Auguste Maria Mörrath born Kölle; Paula Frieda Auguste Mörrath; born 1906 Scope: 117 units / 0.1 running meter. Content: written material: Hofflaschnerei Kölle, Chinese medicine, society furniture truck, correspondence, family papers photos: Family album Running time: 1848-1944 Notes on use: No usage restrictions. Preface: The family archive Mörrath-Kölle was donated to the city archive Stuttgart in January 2007 by Mrs. Ruth Brinkmann with all rights. Only the family photo album remained in the possession of the family. But the city archive was allowed to scan the photos of the album. Scans/printouts on one side and the photos of the album on the other side can be owned and used independently of each other. The collection documents one generation of the Kölle family and three generations of the Mörrath family in Stuttgart David Kölle was Hofflaschnermeister in Villastraße in Berg. He and his wife Karoline had 14 children and 16 journeymen in the house. Later, on their mother's birthday, when her numerous descendants could not be seen, the children held a great feast. The Mörrath family lived in the house next to the Kölles in Berg. Friedrich Ludwig Mörrath (born 1850) was a master carpenter. He was also involved with the Red Cross and was the founder of the Stuttgart-Berg ambulance column. The neighbourly relationship led to the marriage of Friedrich Otto Mörrath (born 1880) and Auguste Maria Mörrath, née Kölle. Friedrich Ludwig Mörrath then moved with his family to Stuttgart-Ostheim, Kanonenweg 145. Friedrich Otto Mörrath, one of six siblings, wanted to study medicine. Since the economic conditions did not permit this, he became a carpenter like his father. He first went to South America as a ship's boy. As a soldier he was ordered to China in 1900 to fight the Boxer Uprising. He used this opportunity to study Chinese medicine intensively there (1901-1903). In Stuttgart he then founded a practice for naturopathy in which he successfully treated his patients with Chinese medicine (compare no. 17 patient letters (the Stuttgart internist Dr. Natorp, for example, had himself treated every year). In the Third Reich he still had to attend the now prescribed Heilpraktikerschule. The practice was founded in the house Schwarenbergstraße 64 where Friedrich Otto Mörrath lived since his marriage. After the death of his father he moved into his house in Stuttgart-Ostheim, Kanonenweg 145 (today Haußmannstraße 145). He had paid off his siblings as an heir, which led to quarrels. Friedrich Otto Mörrath was a member of the Fastnachts-Gesellschaft Möbelwagen, an association which at that time had devoted itself primarily to social and charitable goals in addition to socializing. Friedrich Otto Mörrath died in 1944. Paula Frida Auguste Mörrath (born 1906), the daughter of Friedrich Otto and Auguste Maria Mörrath, met Hugo Janko (born 1885) from Berlin at an invitation in the house of Richard and Emmi Maul. Paula Mörrath and Hugo Janko first began a secret correspondence about the address of Richard and Emmi Maul. In 1924 was celebrated engagement, 1925 wedding. The correspondence between the two does not only provide information about the relationship between fiancées and later spouses. Rather, Hugo Janko also reflected on the question of whether he could marry his bride and entertain her in a befitting manner due to the age difference and the difficult economic situation in Germany. After the marriage Paula Janko followed her husband to Berlin, the residence of the family. The family archive Mörrath-Kölle contains 20 cm files, 10 cm appendix and more than 80 photos/scans. It was recorded by B. Neidiger with the assistance of C. Mack in February 2007. Related persons for the family details are Ruth Pauline Brinkmann née Janko and her sister Erika Maria Janko, the daughters of Hugo Janko and his wife Paula, née Mörrath.

Code: 6.02.0 Inventory profile: Inventory name: Estate of the von Buchka family Content: Files, photos, documents, letters, Bible, war diary Duration: 1801-1935 Scope: 4 linear metres, approx. 160 units of description Cataloguing: database, find book, FINDBUCH.Net Citation method: Universitätsarchiv Rostock, 6.02.0, Signatur Vorwort: The estate of the von Buchka family contains mainly private and professional personal documents, letters and memoirs: the pastor Gottlieb Buchka (1788-1863), his son, the State Councillor Hermann von Buchka (1821-1896) and his son Gerhard von Buchka (1851-1935), Director of the Colonial Department of the Foreign Office and later Vice-Chancellor of the University of Rostock. The estate of the von Buchka family was handed over to the Rostock University Archive on 21.02.2005 by Hans-Joachim von Buchka, great-great grandson of Hermann von Buchkas, then Chancellor of the University of Wuppertal. Nine other pieces of the estate were taken over in 2017, including an anniversary bible from 1850, two letters from Fritz Reuter to Hermann Buchka from 1863, the nobility diploma from 1891 and a war diary from 1812. In the history of the von Buchka family there were many points of contact with the University of Rostock, so that the estate and the holdings of the university archive complement each other in their tradition. The surviving family archive mainly contains private and professional personal documents, letters and memoirs: of the pastor Gottlieb Buchka (1788-1863), his son of the State Councillor Hermann von Buchka (1821-1896) and his son Gerhard von Buchka (1851-1935) Director of the Colonial Department of the Foreign Office and later Vice-Chancellor of the University of Rostock. A list of the estate from 1955, which was probably made after the death of Else von Buchkas (14.02.1955), served as the transfer list. This list formed the basis for the order and recording of the estate in the university archives from February to April 2005. The comparison revealed that some items from the list were missing, that the titles only partly corresponded with the contents and that some documents were not listed. In order to understand earlier connections, the list numbers have been included in the database as "old archive signatures". According to the order and distortion of the inventory, 147 file units were created from the 47 items. The concordance was filed under the signature 136. Of great use for the identification of the documents was the genealogical table of 29.09.2004, filed under the signature 135. All information only suspected at the time of the recording was marked by a question mark. The estate mainly contains private and professional personal documents, letters and memoirs of the pastor Gottlieb Buchka (1788-1863), his youngest son, the State Councillor Hermann von Buchka (1821-1896) and his eldest son, Gerhard von Buchka (1851-1935), director of the Colonial Department of the Foreign Office. In the history of the von Buchka family there were many points of contact with the University of Rostock, so that the estate and the holdings of the university archive complement each other. Hermann von Buchka was habilitated in 1843 by the Faculty of Law of the University of Rostock. His brother Carl Friedrich had already studied law here in 1838. From 1843 to 1847, Hermann von Buchka worked as a private lecturer at the Faculty of Law of the University of Rostock and in the Spruchkollegium. He received his honorary doctorate from the Faculty of Medicine in 1890 and from the Faculty of Theology in 1891. His sons Gerhard, Johannes and Heinrich Buchka studied law at the University of Rostock. Gerhard von Buchka was enrolled from 1871 to 1873 as a student at the Faculty of Law of the University of Rostock. He received his doctorate from the Faculty of Law in 1873 and was later Vice-Chancellor of the University of Rostock from 1902 to 1929. His son Gerhard received his doctorate from the Faculty of Law of the University of Rostock in 1903. The corresponding student, doctoral and personnel files are preserved in the university archives. The estate of the family registered here is a great enrichment for the University Archive Rostock and will hopefully attract many more generations of archive users. We thank Mr. Hans-Joachim von Buchka for his generous contribution.

Explanation: The company was run under this name as its own business since 1888 by Johann Karl Vietor, but was able to make use of the branches in Ghana, Togo, Dahomey, Cameroon, Liberia and Guinea, which had been founded by other members of the Vietor family since 1857. After the severe setback in the First World War, the company was rebuilt in Liberia, Ghana and Togo, but this was destroyed by the world economic crisis, so that the company died out in 1932. It was partly in close contact with other companies co-founded by J. K. Vietor.

The estate of the Prussian Minister of Culture Carl Heinrich Becker was given to the Secret State Archives in 1973 by his son Prof. Dr. Hellmut Becker as a deposit. The estate consists of two main groups, 1. correspondence and 2. factual documents. Business and factual correspondence were not separated, as the transitions were fluid and difficult to distinguish in individual cases. Associations, authorities, etc. are listed in the correspondence as correspondence partners and in the subject groups with writings, publications and statutes. In the case of factual files, a detailed division into individual subject groups was made. These are Carl Heinrich Becker's notes on official matters as well as Becker's publications and works as professor of Oriental Studies. The collection was edited by Dr. Cécile Lowenthal-Hensel, Heidemarie Nowak, Sabine Preuß and Elke Prinz. The technical writing work was done by Petra Bergert. The estate comprises 19 running metres from 1919 - 1933: VI HA, Nl Becker, C. H., Nr. The files are to be quoted: GStA PK, VI.
