Albrecht Theodorich Freiherr[a] Besserer von Thalfingen (8 October 1787 – 1 February 1839) was a Bavarian General,[1] Hofmarschall of Maximilian I Joseph of Bavaria, and Acting[2] War Minister under Ludwig I of Bavaria from 1 November 1838 to 28 January 1839.[3][4]

Besserer, a member of the Besserer von Thalfingen line, was born in Langenau and died in Munich. On 26 September 1819 he married Caroline Adelheid Walburga Josepha Wilhelmina Freiin von Verger (1789–1870).[5] The couple had two children, Maximilian Joseph Aloys (born 1820) and Therese Sophia (born 1824).[6]

Notes

  1. ↑ Regarding personal names: Freiherr was a title before 1919, but now is regarded as part of the surname. It is translated as Baron. Before the August 1919 abolition of nobility as a legal class, titles preceded the full name when given (Graf Helmuth James von Moltke). Since 1919, these titles, along with any nobiliary prefix (von, zu, etc.), can be used, but are regarded as a dependent part of the surname, and thus come after any given names (Helmuth James Graf von Moltke). Titles and all dependent parts of surnames are ignored in alphabetical sorting. The feminine forms are Freifrau and Freiin.
