Life

Oskar Ferdinand von Walcke-Schuldt was a son of Ferdinand Walcke-Schuldt (1788-1856) and his wife Jeannette Charlotte Wilhelmine, born. Poppe (1805-1835). His father, a stepson of Johann Friedrich Basilius Wehber-Schuldt , inherited the Fideikommiss Goldensee und Niendorf am Schaalsee , founded in 1790 .

After the death of his father in 1856 there was a protracted legal dispute over five years and several instances with his uncle Johannes Andreas Walcke (1791 – after 1868) in Lauenburg / Elbe about the entails. Walcke, a younger brother of his father, wanted to interpret the provisions of the Fideicommissacte concerning the succession in favor of a seniorate succession and accordingly sued for the property to be surrendered. The process went through the Lauenburg Court in Ratzeburg to the Holstein-Lauenburg Higher Appeal Court ; A legal opinion was also obtained from the Berlin faculty. During this time the goods were under the management of a sequester . Only after the judgment of February 26, 1862, which was in his favor, did Oskar Ferdinand Walcke-Schuldt take over the administration of Goldensee and Niendorf.

In early October 1864, when Lauenburg as a result of Federal execution against the duchies of Holstein and Lauenburg from 1863 was under the administration of the Federal Commissioners, he became the successor of the district appointed Ottokar of Witzendorff (1824-1890) by the owners of the diet enabled goods to one of their five elected knightly deputies in the Lauenburg knight and landscape reformed by the Danish king in 1853. Due to the consequences of the German-Danish War and the Gastein Convention , this body, which was initially still in existence, lost almost all of its influence. It focused its efforts on securing the Lauenburg special rights as comprehensively as possible when it was incorporated into Prussia and was at least partially successful with the establishment of the Lauenburg regional association . On June 23, 1876, the Ritter- und Landschaft approved the law relating to the unification of the Duchy of Lauenburg with the Prussian monarchy . "The Duchy of Lauenburg will be forever united with the Prussian monarchy from July 1, 1876 in accordance with Art. 2 of the constitutional charter for the Prussian state", reads § 1. Important for the state communal association was § 7: "To the provincial association of Schleswig-Holstein the duchy takes no part. "

Oskar Walcke-Schuldt formed the head of the Landsschaftskollegium as landscape councilor together with the Erblandmarschall Friedrich Gottlieb von Bülow and landscape councilor von Witzendorff . The regional association was responsible for economic and social policy, for cultural promotion and settlement and transport planning. The knight and landscape, which continued to exist as a kind of special parliament, determined the fate of the state communal association according to § 8 (2) of the Unification Act. This changed in 1882 when the district order for the six eastern provinces of Prussia from 1872 was introduced in the Duchy of Lauenburg. The ordinance of August 24, 1882, concerning the representation of the Lauenburg regional municipal association , repealed the knighthood and landscape of the Duchy of Lauenburg with effect from October 1, 1882, but a district assembly was formed for the Duchy of Lauenburg district according to special regulations that differ from the regular District regulations for Schleswig-Holstein until 1919 differed. The ordinance stipulated in Article V (Paragraph 4) that the regional association of municipalities had to give itself a statute which regulates the administration of the property and the participation of the district. From 1882 the district administrator led the presidency. Oskar Walcke-Schuldt was also a member of this district assembly.

By diploma of December 4, 1884, Emperor Wilhelm I, in his capacity as Prussian King, raised Oskar Walcke-Schuldt to the Prussian nobility as von Walcke-Schuldt .

He was married to Marie Henriette Auguste, born in 1865. Röper (* 1843 in Ratzeburg, † 1919 in Hamburg). The couple had three sons and three daughters, of whom Wanda (1869–1945) married Arnold von Winckler and Nathalie (1886–1958) Arthur Graf von Bothmer (1875–1949) on Lauenbrück . The eldest son Oskar (1866–1926) became the last entrant on Goldensee and Niendorf. After his death, Goldensee was sold in 1930.
