Die Gemeinden Pommerns 1819-1945
The Communes of Pomerania 1819-1945

CD-Faksimile

Introduction

As a continuation of an earlier publication „Die Gemeinden- und Wohnplätze Pommerns“ 1974, this CD covers the time of 1819-1945 in faksimile form. It includes the main regional topographical registers published by official sites in this time frame. For the time 1920-1945 also included are those parts (counties) that have been incorporated into Pomerania 1939 which before belonged to other administrative units. The beginning year is that of the great "Kreis-Reform" (restructuring of counties) in Pomerania as in Prussia as well. In the initial publications also the relationships of individual placed and grater parts to the counties in the 18th century is provided.

The publications are based on the list for the "Regierungsbezirke" befor 1870, then for the province of Pomerania, and after 1933 there are only publications in one book for the whole "Deutsches Reich". The latter only include the communities, while those before also include the smaller units called "Wohnplätze" belonging to a commune. Unfortunately, although originally intended, it was not possible to provide a common name register due to efford reasons.

It is woth mentioning that in the 19th entury  there exist for some counties also special official lists, and also the „Landbuch von Pommern“ by Berghaus which adds very useful information but unfortunately is not published for all parts of pomerania.

One of the biggest problems - due to differences in spelling of a place names over time - is the instability of  borders. Therefore in the annex several (parts of) publications listing such changes have been aded, and most valuable is the map of changes provided in „Grundriß der deutschen Verwaltungsgeschichte.“ Also usually each publication on this CD has a chapter about changes, mostly at the beginning.

Due to bad experience with former digital publications this CD is personalised by a keyword for the main file to avoid unauthorized copying. This does not hold for the separate register file. And in the separate map ("Karten") file also the snapshot tool of the Acrobat Reader is available after entering the keyword. These latter two are also included in the main file, but they have better copying possibilities, and sometimes it proves useful to open them in parallel windows. It also is useful to open the .pdf files directly instead in a browser-window.

I have to give credits for support to being able to publish this CD to Martin-Opitz-Bibliothek in Herne (http://www.martin-opitz-bibliothek.de), Herder-Institut in Marburg (http://www.herder-institut.de), University library of Greifswald (http://www.ub.uni-greifswald.de/), Stolper Heimatstube in Bonn (cf. at http://www.stolp.de/), and also Georg Nitzke, Uwe Kerntopf, Harry Meißner, Uwe Thiel and others.
