In addition to the surname, first name and a house number, the occupation and – if it was a widowed resident – the marital status are also mentioned. Most of the entries concern men. Women are presumably listed only if the household in question did not include a man (see, for example, Barbara, Katharina, and Sabine Lambinet). Many family names, especially those appearing several times in the list due to several family lines, are still represented in Harxheim today.[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]The numbers appearing at the end of the entries, obviously the house numbers, do not correspond to today’s addresses with indication of street name and house number. Obviously, the houses were numbered at that time starting with 1, without differentiating between streets. Under the number 1 lived at that time the widow of the farmer Johann Georg Happel III, under the highest appearing number 119 lived the farmer Heinrich Brehm.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.19.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”http:\/\/doku-harxheim.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/CHR-Ort-26-Anlage-1-Adressenliste-Harxheim-von-1906-mod-Bild_Seite_1-scaled.jpg” title_text=”CHR Ort 26 Annex 1 Address list Harxheim from 1906 mod Bild_Seite_1″ url=”http:\/\/doku-harxheim.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/CHR-Ort-26-Anlage-1-Adressenliste-Harxheim-von-1906-mod.pdf” url_new_window=”on” _builder_version=”4.19.5″ _module_preset=”default” max_width=”88%” module_alignment=”center” box_shadow_style=”preset2″ global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.22.0″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”13px” custom_margin=”26px||-1px|||” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n

A preserved site plan from 1897 is helpful here, in which the names of the owners at that time are inscribed in the parcels:[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.19.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.19.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”http:\/\/doku-harxheim.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/CHR-Ort-26-B1-Adressliste-Harxheim-1906-scaled.jpg” title_text=”CHR Place 26 B1 Address list Harxheim 1906″ show_in_lightbox=”on” _builder_version=”4.19.5″ _module_preset=”default” box_shadow_style=”preset2″ global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.22.0″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”13px” custom_margin=”26px||-1px|||” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]It should be noted that the address list appeared nine years later than the site plan and that changes in ownership may have occurred in the meantime. Moreover, not all plots are labeled with names. Nevertheless, with the help of the plan as well as supplementary information from old-established Harxheimers the system of the numbering at that time can be recognized well. In most cases, it is also possible to assign the address number of that time to a current address.[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]The then number 1 is today’s Obergasse 1. The highest number 119 is today Mainzer Stra\u00dfe 4 (on the right, opposite the R\u00f6hrbrunnen<\/a>). Number 1 and number 119 are therefore almost opposite each other. The numbering thus obviously ran in a large loop through Harxheim. From number 1 it went counterclockwise through what is now Obergasse to Untergasse. In the Untergasse, the numbers first continued to the western end of the village (today Weingut Schenk<\/a>) and then back through the Untergasse to the square at the Waage<\/a>. From there we went along Enggasse to the southern exit of the village in Gaustra\u00dfe opposite the Protestant church<\/a>. The numbers then ran again in a northerly direction through Gaustra\u00dfe – taking into account the few houses in Bahnhofstra\u00dfe at the time – to the present-day intersection of Gaustra\u00dfe, Obergasse and Mainzer Stra\u00dfe. The further numbering process starts at the northern end of the village (today Mainzer Stra\u00dfe) below the former school<\/a> and continues through today’s Mainzer Stra\u00dfe to its end point at the former Rindssteig<\/a>.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”2_5,3_5″ _builder_version=”4.19.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”2_5″ _builder_version=”4.19.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]On this basis, today’s addresses can be assigned to the address entries of that time largely according to the following list:[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”3_5″ _builder_version=”4.19.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”http:\/\/doku-harxheim.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/CHR-Ort-26-thumb-Anlage-2-Adressliste-Harxheim-1906-inkl.-heutiger-Adressen.jpg” title_text=”CHR Place 26 thumb Attachment 2 Address list Harxheim 1906 incl.

Of course, there were many more farmers in Harxheim at that time. They are also likely to have produced wine, but were usually mixed agricultural farms. Thus, there was only one winemaker in the address list. Tradesmen offering products and services on site were much more numerous than today.[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]Among the 140 persons in the address list, 48 are farmers, 24 are day laborers, and 13 are private individuals. In addition, there were three bakers in Harxheim at that time, six railroad workers (at that time Harxheim also had a station<\/a>), a barber, a field gunner, two carters, three (guest) innkeepers, a community collector, a merchant, an infant teacher and two teachers (one Protestant and one Catholic), a haberdasher, two m\u00e4kler, four bricklayers, five butchers, a letter carrier, a blacksmith, three tailors, a carpenter, three shoemakers, a road keeper, a cattle dealer, a wainwright, four wine merchants (3x Lotz and 1x Herdt) and a vintner (Philipp III. Dei\u00df). Furthermore, an agent, a railroad agent and an alderman appear, as well as, of course, the mayor, then Philipp Heinrich Frie\u00df, and the (Protestant) pastor, then Hermann Weigold.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”1px||3px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”11px” min_height=”10.8px” custom_margin=”||8px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”]References:<\/strong>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.5″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”9px” global_colors_info=”{}”]Landes-Adre\u00dfbuch f\u00fcr das Gro\u00dfherzogtum Hessen.
