So someone just send me a picture of a grave, not far away from me. https://s11.postimg.org/3vm2uqbyb/14398 ... 9199_n.jpg
Is about an vice consul, from germany by the name of Ernest Kall i belive. So he is burried in Romania, more precise in Constanta, but i could not dig nothing about him. Any help would be apreciated, and this forum was my first option.
Unknown german consul.
Vizekonsul Ernst Roll
I don't quite see what an Imperial Consul has got to do with the WW2 Axis, but it is obviously the grave of Ernst Roll. Apparently he was a honorary consul, not a career diplomat.
Source: Deutsches Reichsgesetzblatt 1872, Nr. 17, S. 172.Ernennung zu Deutschen Konsuln vom 17. Juni 1872
Seine Majestät der Kaiser und König haben im Namen des Deutschen Reichs
den Kaufmann Ernst Roll in Kustendje und
den früheren Vizekonsul des Norddeutschen Bundes Jonathan Wagner in Honfleur
zu Vizekonsuln des Deutschen Reichs daselbst zu ernennen geruht.
There are times in history when staying neutral means taking sides.
