About Gustav von Gustedt (source: wikipedia):

Gustav Friedrich Werner von Gustedt (born 27. August 1804 in Halberstadt; † 28 December 1859 in Dardesheim) was a Prussian district administrator.

Life: Origin: Gustav von Gustedt came from a Hildesheim noble family and was the son of Joachim Philipp von Gustedt (1749-1814) and Marianne Freiin Spiegel von und zu Peckelsheim (1778-1856). His younger brother was the later District Administrator Werner von Gustedt.

Career: Gustedt was a royal Prussian first lieutenant in the Landwehr cavalry, squire on Dardesheim and Rhoden, from 1835 also Badersleben.

Badersleben Abbey was dissolved in the course of secularization in 1810 by the Westphalian government on the instructions of Jérôme Bonaparte. Gustedt bought the monastery and land and founded an agricultural school here in 1846, which quickly gained an excellent reputation. From 1844 to 1859 he worked as a district administrator in Halberstadt.

Gustedt married on April 4. September 1838 in Crossen Castle in Crossen on the Elster Clementine Countess of Flemming (* 25. September 1820 in Koblenz; † 21 November 1913 in Halberstadt), the daughter of the Royal Prussian District President Karl von Flemming (1783-1866), squire on Crossen, and the Wilhelmine Countess of Hardenberg (House Neu-Hardenberg). From this marriage came son Ernst von Gustedt.
