One of the families I'm researching, HOENIGER, had many attorneys who
attained various ranks. Were there legal directories? As an example,
the Amtsblatt for Potsdam and Berlin for nearly 100 years is digitized.
I found an entry in 1859 that a HOENIGER become Assessor via a search
engine hit. Just the one hit. I know >from other records that other
HOENIGER attorneys studied & practiced in Berlin. Why don't they
appear in searches? I find it hard to believe that Prussia, of
all places, was hit & miss with announcements of this sort.
How about when someone attained the level Justizrat? Would that
have been published somewhere? Thanks so much for your help!
