Discovered a photo of my great grandfather Gustav Gottlieb Manthey - Abt
1850-1930. The inscription on the back of the photo says "Mein Vater 1914
Soldat in Oldenburg". Translated that means "My father 1914 Soldier in
Oldenburg". Was there is local militia at that time? Or was there a
military base still active? Is it possible to tell by the uniform? He has
a sword but no insignia is visible. Is there a listing of names of the
military units, etc. that I could look up records for?

Marlies,
I would suspect that he served in the 91st Oldenburger Infantry
Regiment. See: http://www.derrittmeister.com/0844.htm

Liebe Marlies,
ein Gro�teil von Soldaten aus Oldenburg diente auch im
Reserve-Infanterie-Regiment 79 III./sp�ter 440. Besteht die M�glichkeit,
eine Abbildung im Internet zu sehen?
Ist bekannt, an welchen Schlachten der Gesuchte teilgenommen hat?
Ich werde in den n�chsten Tagen in der Regimentsgeschichte nachsehen.
Bis dann
mit herzlichen Gr��en,
Hans-Georg
Hello Marlies,
the Oldenburg garrison before the First World War was composed of the
Infantry Regiment No. 91, the Dragoons Regiment No. 19 and one detachment of
the East Frisian Artillery Regiment No. 62.
Kind regards

Hallo Joachim,
Hello Marlies,
the Oldenburg garrison before the First World War was composed
of the Infantry Regiment No. 91, ...
das ist interessant! Hat die 91er Str. in Oldenburg daher wohl ihren
Namen?

Hallo Thomas,
die 91er Stra�e in Oldenburg wurde 1936 nach dem Infanterie-Regiment 91.
Vorher geh�rte dieser Stra�enzug zum Pferdemarkt.
