Does anyone know if Hesse-Darmstadt issued an official "register" as most monarchies did in the N period?
That is , something that would list officers and military officials, etc.
According to Wikiwakipedia, the "Großherzoglich Hessisches Regierungsblatt" began in 1819 [https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gro%C3%9Fherzoglich_Hessisches_Regierungsblatt].
But was there a similar publication earlier? What was it called? (And hope it is on-line!).
Thanks in advance.
Kösterus does not appear to have served in the Grossherzoglich hessischen Liebgarde-Regiment as an officer in:

Haven't looked at this: Musterungsverordnung vom 24. Juni 1808. Musterungsverordnung in 1812
There exists a:
Großherzoglich Hessischer Militair- Hof- und Civil-Etat 1810 und 1811. Darmstadt: Verlag der Großherzogl. Invaliden-Anstalt, 51 pp.
I will check it WRT Kösterus.

Jack, I think you know this valuable site regarding the official Staatshandbücher: https://de.wikisource.org/wiki/Staatshandbücher_und_-kalender ... but nothing for the Rhinebund era :-(
Kösterus, Martin Karl Ignatz, b. 1792 - . He was still around in the 1830s. Possible government official by his writings.

John, don't know if this is what you are looking for but there exists a so called "Landgräflich-Hessischer Staats- und Adreß-Kalender auf das Jahr 1806". This was the last Kalender published before the Landgrafschaft Hessen-Darmstadt became Großherzogtum Hessen and part of the Rheinbund...
