Not much is known about Victor Kugler's Austrian and German addresses. However, some information can be gleaned from various sources. Kugler's birthplace Hohenelbe is located in the Czech Republic. The area where it is located was part of Austria-Hungary until 1918. Its current name is Vrchlabí.[1] The birthplace had the address Hohenelbe 119.[2]

Around 1909-1910, Emilie Kugler, Victor's mother, married Franz Klose. The couple moved to the surroundings of Duisburg. The exact date is not known, but their first child Rudolf was born on 18 December 1910 in Duisburg-Hamborn.[3] Victor Kugler's school reports confirm this move. In 1910, according to his last school report, Kugler left Hohenelbe for Beeck.[4] Franz Klose lived in 1910 at the address Eduardstraße 27a, Hamborn.[5] This street was about halfway between Beeck and Hamborn. In 1912 he lived at: Alsumer Straße 205, Hamborn.[5] And in 1914 at: Hubertusstrasse 21, Laar, Duisburg.[5]

Victor Kugler returned to Hohenelbe between 27 March 1914 and 16 September 1914.[6] It is not known where exactly he lived during that time. In 1914-1916 he was in Hohenelbe in connection with the textile vocational school. That was before his military service. From 15 July 1918 to 20 July 1920, Victor Kugler worked at Schachtanlage Scholven in Gladbeck. Franz Klose's family lived at that time in Gladbeck, at Bohnenkampstrasse 49.[7] It is not known whether Kugler lived there.
