  Justus Perthes - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In this, he was joined in 1814 by his son Wilhelm Perthes (1793-1853), who had been in the establishment of Justus's nephew, Friedrich Christoph Perthes, at Hamburg.
Wilhelm Perthes engaged the collaboration of the most eminent German geographers of the time, including Stieler, Heinrich Berghaus (1797-1884), Christian Gottlieb Reichard (1758-1837), who was associated with Stieler in the compilation of the atlas, Karl Spruner (1803-1892), and Emil von Sydow (1812-1873).
In 1863 the firm first issued the Almanach de Gotha, a statistical, historical and genealogical annual (in French) of the various countries of the world; and in 1866 the elaborate Geographisches Jahrbuch was produced under the editorship of Ernst Behm (1830-1884), on whose death it was continued under that of Professor Hermann Wagner.

 Friedrich Christoph Perthes - LoveToKnow 1911
FRIEDRICH CHRISTOPH PERTHES (1772-1843), German publisher, nephew of Johan Georg Perthes (q.v.), was born at Rudolstadt on the 21st of April 1772.
Perthes was an ardent patriot; and during the period of Napoleon's supremacy he distinguished himself by his steady resistance to French pretensions.
When the foundation-stone of the fine building of the Union was laid in 1834, Perthes was made an honorary freeman of the city of Leipzig, and in 1840 the university of Kiel conferred upon him the degree of doctor of philosophy.

 GEO s.mile - Perthes wall maps are the best!
Early 1992 - almost 40 years after its expropriation and nearly two years after the Berlin wall fell - the parent firm of Justus Perthes Darmstadt, "Hermann Haack Veriagsgeselischaft mbH Gotha", was returned to the ownership of Stephan Justus Perthes.
In order to secure the long-term continuance of the Perthes tradition, a tradition of more than 200 years, Stephan Justus Perthes decided to sell his shares in the publishing houses of Perthes Darmstadt and Haack Gotha to "Ernst KJeft Schulbuchveriag", Stuttgart.
Perthes Gotha will continue to produce the geographical and historical HaackPerthes school wall maps as well as the Perthes transparencies.
