In the 1990s, Heiner Stauder began to build up a collection of printed matter for the French period in accordance with the model of the Landesherrliche Verordnungssammlung (LVO) (collection of ordinances of the sovereign state of France) during the indexing of inventory 60, by leaving only one copy of printed ordinances or news items, insofar as they were present several times in the file volume, in the file. The rest have been separated. Printed matter that was found loose in the old annual bundles of the old FA 60 stock during further indexing was added to this printed matter collection (Order 63). The same procedure was used if the file context could no longer be reconstructed for large quantities of printed matter within an old FA60 bundle. In principle, printed matter was removed from the files in stocks 60-62 and integrated into stock 63 if there were several copies of the same printed matter in the file. If only 1 copy was in the file, it remained in it and - like the other printed matter - was included with a note in it. If printed matter appears in other contexts which can be assigned to this collection in terms of content and provenance, it has been and will be added to this collection.

1814-1930 (1945) The holdings 70 of the Mainz Municipal Archives comprise all preserved files of the Mainz Municipal Administration from the period 1814/16 to 1930/45, i.e. the period when Mainz belonged to the Grand Duchy or People's State of Hesse, therefore the holdings are also called "Hessian Archives". The "Hessian Archive" also includes the files of the occupation office during the French occupation of 1918-1930 (fonds 71) and the old registry of the Mainz City Library (fonds 72). The personnel files of the Hessian period were also separated and added to the personnel files of the city archive (here: accesses before 1962). The files of the stock 70 originate from the mayor's office of the city of Mainz and from individual municipal offices or companies. Also files of the former district office Mainz are in the inventory. This goes back to the initiative of the former government director Richard Falck, who in the 1920s was active as an assessor in the district office and worked to ensure that the files relating to Mainz were not handed over to the state archives in Darmstadt, but were transferred to the city archives. Apart from a few exceptions, the records of this collection end in 1930. The municipal files from the National Socialist era (1933-1945), which were in the main registry of the town hall, were burned during a bombing raid on Mainz in August 1942. The files were also destroyed at various other municipal offices in 1942-1945. The personnel files that survived the war were not affected. It is not possible to prove for all partial holdings when the files reached the city archives or who handed them in. In the access books from 1909 to 1945, a total of 90 entries of various sizes can be found, which according to their provenance and duration can be assigned to the "Hessian Archive" and which are also largely to be found in today's holdings. Some accesses are no longer to be found and have probably been cashed (e.g. files of the garden administration and the rental agreement office). A large part of the listed deliveries is accounted for by the finance and accounting departments of both the general administration and the city. Companies, but also the local citizen registers, the trade diaries, files on fruit prices and the fruit market, on the poor and welfare, on the electricity and waterworks, election records and various deliveries of school files are mentioned in the access books. A list of the proven accesses can be found in the electronic file of the city archives under Findmittel/Sonstiges. Also after 1945 still files were handed over, which were assigned to the existence 70, in the activity report of 1948-1950 9 Faszikel air-raid protection files (cf. 70/1028 ff.) are mentioned, 1951/52 4 volumes citizen registers of the 19th century are mentioned. Ordnungsarbeiten ab 1935 (nach den Tätigkeitsberichten des Stadtarchivs) The order of the files of the Hessian period was the responsibility of the administrative secretary Wilhelm Danz from April 1935, who was active in the archive from that time. In the year 1940 4533 file bundles were formed. In 1943 390 ordered bundles were added. The type of content of the order is not reported in the activity reports. During the Second World War, a total of 92 bundles of today's 70 files had been moved to the Heldburg in Thuringia. Until 1960, there was no evidence in Mainz for these outsourced files. The files reached the central archives of the GDR in Potsdam via a collection depot in Merseburg and were not returned to the city archives until December 1986. In the "Verzeichnis der von der DDR zurückkommenen Archivalien" these bundles are listed under the numbers 586-678. After their return, they were sorted into the "Hessische Archiv" (Hessian Archive), which had meanwhile been arranged according to the file plan, and before the files were renumbered they bore the signatures "DDR-Akten Nr. [Bündelnummer lt. o. g. Verzeichnis]". During the Second World War, the archive holdings remaining in the house had to be moved several times due to the air raids. On 27.02.1945, "a small, not important, archive of modern records" was destroyed. The two upper floors of the municipal library burnt out, causing the remaining files in the house to become very disordered and the staff had to clean them of debris and dust. The files of the stock 70 were also completely confused. City secretary Danz began anew with a reorganization, in 1948 the ordered stock comprised 291 running meters, in 1952 more than 400 running meters, in 1954: 600 running meters. In 1952 there is still talk of a "jumble of single leaf pieces which are read out of the rubble or come to light from the torn, fallen apart bundles". At that time the collection was divided into 13 sections, which were listed in the activity report for 1950/51-1951/52. In his annual report for the years 1952/53-1953/54, Wilhelm Diepenbach cites an example of the work of organizing single sheets: "In earlier decades, the local court also had to deal with matters of poor law. Consequently, documents relating to this matter were classified under the factual term "local court". Now all such documents are taken out and classified in the civil alphabet under surnames." In the 1950s, Wilhelm Danz had separated out a mountain of files from the Hessian period and planned them for cassation (among them were the files on the Jewish community!); the timely intervention of his archive colleagues prevented the destruction of these valuable archival records. In 1957/58, after the departure of Danz, the archivists noticed that the system according to which the bundles of files had previously been set up (the 13 departments mentioned above) no longer met the requirements, and they had to begin anew with reordering work. The holdings were roughly sorted according to alphabetical keywords, thus preparing the final reorganization. Whether this refers to the order according to the Hessian municipal file plan of 1908 cannot be inferred from the activity reports, but is probable. Wilhelm Danz's successor was the archivist Siemsen, followed by Mrs. Schmelig. As late as 1963, Ludwig Falck, who later became archive director, wrote in the commemorative volume "De Bibliotheca Moguntina": "The uniform order ... is still in progress and will take a long time, since this work has been made very difficult by all kinds of adverse fates." After the conclusion of the order work and the listing of the file bundles formed and inscribed by the archivists according to the registration plan for Hessian mayor's offices from the year 1908, the files could be found with the help of the file plan and by examination in the magazine whether files were available to a file plan department. There wasn't a list of files. The departments and sub-items of the file plan were considered signatures. A first list of files was drawn up in the 1980s by Doris Braun, a graduate archivist. It comprised 1406 numbers and the file plan departments I (head of state) to XII (church affairs) and thus about the first quarter of the entire stock. In 2003, Ursula Kwasniewski, an archivist, began to enter the existing list of files into the archive database "Faust". The unrecorded files were then numbered consecutively and these new file signatures, together with the file titles and file numbers on the file covers, were recorded in the database. The building files in the inventory deviate from this numerical order. They had already been entered some years earlier according to the sections "Bauakten vor 1900" and "Bauakten nach 1900" and within these groups alphabetically according to building owners. This registration corresponded and corresponds to the physical order of the building files which are at the end of the inventory. After entering the approximately 22,000 file titles, Ramona Göbel (later: Weisenberger), a graduate archivist, read the titles on the basis of the database Correction and created a classification, which is largely based on the preliminary order according to the registry plan of 1908.

The chamber's reporting is the result of French legal tradition. Annual reports of the Cologne Chamber of Commerce have been published since 1823. For the first time reporting was made legally binding by the statute of the Chamber of Commerce of Elberfeld and Barmen in 1830. The Prussian decree of 11 February 1848 on the establishment of chambers of commerce made the reporting of the chambers obligatory. Section 24 reads as follows: 'Each year in January, the Chambers of Commerce shall submit a main report to the Minister of Finance on the situation and progress of trade and industry, and shall at the same time submit a copy to the President of the Office of Commerce and the Government. They are obliged to inform the traders and tradesmen of their district of their effectiveness and of the situation and course of trade and trade through the public papers by means of continuous notifications of extracts from the consultation minutes and at the end of each year in a special overview". Further laws of 24 February 1870 and 19 August 1897 expressly emphasised this obligation to submit a report. Since 1897 the reports had to be reproduced in print. Until 1914 the reports were steadily expanded and systematized. This corresponded to the interest of the chambers and the Minister for Trade and Industry, who had the reports published in a supplement of the Prussian Trade Archives until 1872. The Prussian Statistical Bureau, which evaluated the annual reports and based them on comparative overviews of trade and traffic from 1861 onwards, pushed for standardization. The law of 1870, which obliged the chambers to reconcile their interests, did not prevent them from using their annual report as a mouthpiece for their views on economic policy. Free trade and customs were discussed in the annual reports. Although a standardization of the annual reports could not be achieved, the separation of the sections "Views, expert opinions and wishes" (Part A) and "Actual" (Part B) recommended by the Director of the Statistical Bureau, Engel, prevailed. As a rule, Part B contains statistical material which, from today's perspective, provides important data on regional economic and social history. After the First World War, only in exceptional cases did the summary descriptions of the wartime period provided for in the decree of the Prussian Minister of Commerce of 27 October 1914 appear. It was not until 1919 that annual reports were required again. After 1920, many chambers began to produce monthly reports together with neighbouring chambers due to overloading of their scientific officials. The procedure was expressly approved by the Ministry of Commerce, which had been compiling the reports in its magazine "Handel und Gewerbe" since January 1921. Some chambers continued to print annual reports, others presented them in duplicate to the plenary meetings. The monthly reporting of the chambers lasted until 1936. From 1934 to 1939, the Chambers of Commerce produced internal reports every two or three months, some of which were incorporated into their periodicals. With the expansion of official statistics at the Reich, Land and local levels, the Chambers' annual reports lost weight and their character as a decision-making aid for state and municipal administrations. In addition, they were often already outdated when they appeared. Since about 1900 the chambers have countered this development by publishing periodicals, so-called newsletters. After the Second World War, the Law Provisionally Regulating the Law of Chambers of Commerce and Industry did not include a provision on annual reporting, but in practice all chambers publish annual reports and monthly newsletters from 1950 at the latest.

In 1970 (access number 1970/16) - i.e. after the incorporation of 1969 - the archive of the municipality of Ebersheim, which covers an area of approx. 13 metres, was transferred to the Mainz City Archives. The files, official books and some plans were in a completely disordered state. According to a note dated 09.12.1949 in No. 638 "Brände in Ebersheim" (Fires in Ebersheim), a large part of the municipal records was destroyed by the effects of war in the Second World War. There is no list of the missing file material in the stock. For example, these can be municipal council minutes, association files, files on Reichstag, Landtag and municipal council elections, which are missing in the Ebersheim inventory. The documents of the municipality of Ebersheim mainly document the period 1815-1863, but also contain - albeit only a few - documents from the 18th century. Within this range, however, there are numerous gaps. The order work of the collection was considerably complicated by many loose-leaf collections in addition to individual case files within a bundle. The individual case files had to be partially closed and new file units had to be created. Because of the long duration of individual files and because of the new format of the files, the titles of the registered files were deliberately formulated in detail. They were supplemented by detailed subtitles (Contains, Contains, etc.); records within a file unit that were not related to the subject were marked "therein". A larger cassation was omitted for the distortion, because there was no possibility of comparison with the traditions in other suburban archives. In order to avoid double overdeliveries within the stock, a single sheet cassation was occasionally carried out, e.g. with forms. During the classification of the recorded files, an attempt was made to establish an affiliation with the Hessian registry plan of 1908. Due to the large number and diversity of file subjects and the long duration within individual files, the surtitles of the registry plan in particular have undergone major changes. The birth, marriage and death registers of the years 1798-1802 were taken from the inventory and attached to the civil status registers of Ebersheim in the inventory 50 "Register of civil status and files of civil status" under the current no. 272. In 1985 the local administration of Mainz-Ebersheim (access number 1985/25) delivered another file with a circumference of approx. 4 metres. The files, which run until 1975, focus on elections and budgetary, cash and accounting matters. They were arranged analogously to the classification points and added to the end of the finding aid book.

After Bischofsheim's incorporation, the almost 9 m files of the VOA 6 holdings were transferred to the Mainz municipal archives in the course of two deliveries. On 01.12.1934, 161 "Rechnungs-Archivalien" (Invoice Archives), mostly from the second half of the 19th century, were handed over by the local administration of Mainz-Bischofsheim (Zug.: 1934/96). At the beginning of 1939 she had 60 parcels of "finished files" ready for stamping. The then director of the city archive, Dr. Dertsch, singled out 40 packages with files mainly from the second and third decades of the 20th century as not worthy of archiving. They concerned social welfare, food supply during and after the First World War, "general course of business", state and Reichstag elections as well as forest and municipal affairs. On 03.03.1939 20 packages (without access number) were taken over. These included eight packages of "various old files from 1820-1920", four packages each of militaria and "school affairs until 1930", two packages of mayoral and municipal elections between 1850 and 1914, and one package each of agriculture (1870-1900) and construction ("older files"). With the two entrances, the documents of the Bischofsheim municipal administration that had been handed down and intended for permanent storage did not reach the Mainz municipal archives in their entirety. A part remained in the place, so that the Bischofsheimer tradition is today divided. In Bischofsheim, mainly files and official books from the early modern period and the first half of the 19th century are kept. This is a collection which was listed in its core as early as 1914 in the inventories of the municipal archives of the district Groß-Gerau (cf. Becker, Wilhelm Martin (ed.): Invententare der Gemeindearchive des Kreises Groß-Gerau, Darmstadt 1914 (Invententare der nichtstaatlichen Archive im Großherzogtum Hessen, vol. 3: Invententar der hessischen Gemeinde-Archive, H.1), pp. 7f. The Bischofsheimer directory was compiled by the teacher Bechtolsheimer and supplemented by the Kreisurkundenpfleger). After the Second World War, the holdings were obviously supplemented with more recent materials (cf. Inventory Catalogue of the Municipal Archive of the Municipality of Bischofsheim). In: Bischofsheimer Geschichtsblätter, H.40, September 1967, p.212-219). Although the 701 volumes (without duplicates of invoices) kept in the Mainz City Archives run from 1733 to 1937, they focus on the second half of the 19th century and the first three decades of the 20th century. Thematically, the areas "Church Affairs" and "Education" stand out. Reference should also be made to the files on voluntary jurisdiction, the French occupation after the First World War and the construction industry. When it was taken over by the town archives, the files were roughly arranged according to the 1908 registration plan for the grand ducal mayor's offices. When examining the archives, however, it became apparent that, on the one hand, the titles of the files given by the registration plan often did not describe their contents sufficiently and, on the other hand, that there was often no organic and, in many cases, no factual connection between the individual documents of a file volume. This made the distortion work more difficult. In order to ensure sufficient indexing, new file units had to be formed in part - disregarding archival principles. For the same reason, the titles were formulated in as much detail as possible and often supplemented with notes ("Contains", "Contains, etc.", "Contains, etc."). Reference was made to foreign documents as well as to newspapers and printed matter, photographs and plans (except for construction files) with "Darin auch". Only a few documents were collected, above all incomplete forms and questionnaires for statistical surveys, which were available in several copies, as well as advertising material from companies outside the Sprengels of the Mainz City Archive. A comparison between the delivery notes or lists from 1934 and 1939 on the one hand and the found stock on the other hand suggests that a small amount of material was destroyed between the time of the takeover and the distortion. It must remain unclear whether this was due to an archival decision or to the effects of war. In the final classification, the complete adoption of the 1908 registry plan did not seem to make much sense, as numerous departments would have been occupied with little or no occupancy at all. For this reason, a new scheme was developed on the basis of the registry plan and on the basis of the classifications found in other suburban archives of the Mainz Municipal Archives, which seeks to take account of the actual files found. Due to a personnel change, two editors were involved in the creation of the finding aid book, whose different "manuscripts" could not be completely suppressed during the final editing. It began with the drawing in spring/summer 1988 by Mrs. Andrea Eckel, was completed in winter 1990/91 by the undersigned, Mr. Heiner Stauder, who also carried out the classification and wrote the preface. The search book was entered into the database "Archibal" in November 1999 by Mrs. Gerda Kessler in cooperation with Mrs. Ramona Göbel (Chief Inspector of the Archives). Local history of Bischofsheim: The beginnings of today's Bischofsheim date back to the time of the Frankish occupation of the land. Both archaeological finds and the ending of the place name on "-heim" speak for this. However, the prefixed place of destination is not a personal name, as is usually the case, but an ecclesiastical official designation. Staab concludes that the bishop of Mainz was the founder of the Franconian settlement. He probably also owned the local church, which was probably dedicated to Saint Martin. It probably passed into the possession of the Sankt Viktor monastery near Weisenau around 1000, which was the most important landlord of the Mainz monasteries and monasteries wealthy in Bischofsheim alongside the cathedral monastery. It also received a large tithe in most of the district and had the right of patronage, which it retained even after the introduction of the Reformation in Bischofsheim during the 16th century. In the second half of the 13th century, members of various branches of the Reichsministerialengeschlechts von Bolanden could be seized as holders of sovereign rights. At the beginning of the 14th century the Hohenfels line had apparently prevailed, but in 1331 members of this house sold the village of Bischofsheim with court, people and all accessories for 400 pounds of heller to Count Rudolf von Wertheim and Gottfried von Eppstein. The aristocracy of Wertheim soon seems to have passed into the hands of the arch monastery of Mainz, which pledged it to Henne von Erlebach in 1417: von Weilbach. One of his descendants, Adam von Erlebach, and his wife Margarethe came in the same way into possession of the Eppsteiner share, which the pledgee lord sold to Count Philipp von Katzenelnbogen in 1478. After his death in the following year the Landgraves of Hesse inherit him, whose Darmstadt line succeeded in putting themselves into the complete possession of Bischofsheim. In 1577, after lengthy negotiations, the lords of Hattstein sold their rights to Landgrave George I to succeed von Erlebach, and two years later the archbishopric of Mainz did the same. Thus Bischofsheim has belonged to Hesse (-Darmstadt) since 1579. The change of rule in 1577/79 and the Reformation, which was presumably already in place before that, left the possessions and rights of the Mainz monasteries and monasteries untouched. Not until 1802/03 did their estates fall to the Hessian state in the course of secularisation. This transition was one of the many innovations that took place during the 19th century. In the wake of the constitution issued by the Grand Duchy of Hesse in 1820, the judiciary and administration were separated, which necessitated a reorganization of the state. Bischofsheim, which had previously belonged to the Rüsselsheim office, was assigned to the Dornberg district in the province of Starkenburg or to the Groß-Gerau district court. While the division of the judiciary remained largely the same over the next 110 years - only in 1879 did the district court of Groß-Gerau become the district court with the introduction of the German Court Constitution Act of 3 September 1878 - the territorial division of the administration was subject to several changes. In 1832 Bischofsheim was added to the district Groß-Gerau, after the dissolution of the districts in the course of the revolution of 1848 to the administrative district Darmstadt. When the districts were restituted in the course of the reaction in 1852, Bischofsheim returned to the Groß-Gerau district, where it remained until it was incorporated into Mainz in 1930. With the constitution of 1820, the traditional municipal constitution was also no longer compatible, which is why a new municipal order was issued in 1821. In Bischofsheim it also replaced the mayor's office with the mayor, who together with the deputy and the local council formed the local executive committee. However, in Bischofsheim the term "Schultheiß" seems to have been in use for some time. A further innovation in the first half of the 19th century meant the abolition of the traditional agricultural constitution: the rule of the land and the rule of the tenth disappeared with the transfer of the land charges, which had largely been carried out in Bischofsheim until 1842. At this time the Bischofsheimer still lived predominantly from agriculture. Their village had not yet expanded beyond the local embankment, which had been built to protect the inhabitants of the Mainufergemeinde from the often threatening floods. A profound socio-economic and demographic change began with industrialization in the second half of the 19th century. Numerous employees of the companies being established in the neighbouring communities, namely MAN in Gustavsburg and Opel in Rüsselsheim, came from or moved to Bischofsheim. However, the most important employer for the Bischofsheimers was the railway, which had a decisive influence on the history of the town. After the Mainz-Darmstadt line had been opened in 1858 and the Mainz-Frankfurt line in 1863, the Bischofsheim railway station was expanded at the turn of the century to become the largest marshalling yard in southern Germany and Mainz's relief freight yard. This contributed significantly to the growth of the settlement and population. The influx of railway employees and factory workers also created a Catholic community, after Bischofsheim - apart from some Jews - had been purely Protestant. The changes in the course of industrialization naturally also affected the activities of the municipal administration. Reference is made here to the construction of schools and local roads, which is reflected in the files at hand. These also provide information about the consequences of the French occupation of the Rhineland after the First World War and the passive resistance. Since this was exercised in particular also by numerous railwaymen, it came in Bischofsheim to numerous expulsions by the occupation authorities. At the end of the 1920s, the local government planned to lay gas and water pipelines. These two projects brought the community into severe financial distress in the context of the global economic crisis. In this situation, the idea of incorporation into Mainz was awakened for the first time, which was finally realised after hard disputes between the population and the local council. On 01.01.1930 Bischofsheim was incorporated into the city of Mainz together with neighbouring Ginsheim-Gustavsburg, Bretzenheim and Weisenau, which hoped to benefit from an expansion of its area. In 1930 their area doubled from 4096 ha to 8195 ha, of which 930 ha were in the Bischofsheim district. After the incorporation, Fischer, who had been mayor since then, initially acted as head of the village until, after the National Socialist seizure of power, he was replaced by the party member Fritz Eitel, who also headed the Ginsheim-Gustavsburg district. During his term of office the discrimination of the Jewish population began, which reached its first climax in the pogrom night of 9/10.11.1938. At that time the synagogue in Bischofsheim was damaged. The remaining Jewish inhabitants in Bischofsheim were victims of the Holocaust during the war. Victims were also claimed by the Allied bombing raids, which targeted the railway station, but often also affected the settlement. After the war, the Rhine became the border between two occupation zones or federal states. As a result, the connection between Mainz and Bischofsheim was dissolved, and Bischofsheim declared itself an independent parish again in the district of Groß-Gerau.
