Herbert von Conrad was born the son of Richard von Conrad and Armgard von Reden . He studied law at the Georg-August University in Göttingen . In 1899 he became a member of the Corps Saxonia Göttingen . After completing his studies and legal clerkship, he joined the Prussian civil service in 1907 as a government assessor. In 1914 he became the district administrator of the district Wolmirstedt appointed. During the First World War , he worked in the civil administration of the General Government of Warsaw from 1915 to 1918 . He retired from civil service in 1919 and took over his 600-hectare Lalkau estate in West Prussia . After he had been expropriated from the estate in July 1923, his uncle Adalbert von Conrad made him authorized representative of the Fronza estate in West Prussia. In 1932 he acquired the Wolmirstedt estate. His distanced relationship to National Socialism was expressed in critical reports on German occupation policy. After Wolmirstedt became part of the Soviet occupation zone , he was arrested by the Soviet troops and imprisoned in special camp No. 2 in Buchenwald, where he died in February 1946. Herbert von Conrad was married to Hildegard von Veltheim, a daughter of Werner von Veltheim . Of the four daughters, three survived. In addition to Adalbert, Alfred von Conrad was an uncle.
