family

The family supposedly comes from Colmar , but is based on Rügen in the 17th century . Axel von Colmar was the son of the landowner Ferdinand Karl Dagobert von Colmar (1809–1895), landlord of Laase, Zützen and Meyenburg (today part of Berkholz-Meyenburg , Amt Oder-Welse ), and Anna Marie Lüdicke (1812–1891) .

Colmar married Antonie von Lauer (born June 3, 1845 in Berlin, † November 13, 1896 in Lüneburg , Lower Saxony ), daughter of Gustav von Lauer, on May 8, 1866 in Berlin . There are five children from this marriage.

In his second marriage on June 27, 1901 in Berlin he married the widowed Karoline Countess von Pückler, Freiin von Groditz (born June 28, 1852 on Gut Nieder-Kunzendorf , district of Schweidnitz , Lower Silesia ; † February 3, 1922 in Obernigk , district of Trebnitz , Lower Silesia), formerly Chief Chamberlain of Princess Luise Sophie of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Augustenburg, wife of Prince Friedrich Leopold of Prussia and sister of Empress Auguste Viktoria .

Life

Colmar studied at the Ruprecht-Karls-Universität Heidelberg and became active there in the Corps Saxo-Borussia in 1860 . He was landlord on the Zützen and Meyenburg estates near Schwedt on the Oder, royal Prussian chamberlain and legal knight of the Order of St. John . In 1868 he became district administrator of the Chodziesen district and in 1882 police chief of Poznan . In 1887 he became the district president of the Aurich district and from 1890 to 1899 in Lüneburg , because Kaiser Wilhelm II had promised his mother-in-law this. In 1899 he was fired from public service as a sewer rebel .

In the years 1877 to 1887, 1889 to 1890 and 1894 to 1903 he was a member of the Prussian House of Representatives .
