whats the centerpiece?

Great guys! Thanks!

Great Andreas! Thanks I hope its a good start :-)

Any way in finding some data on this guy? I know he was present at a baptism in 1880.

Thanks for your efforts, Glenn!

From the internet source on his father, I saw Hans Axel Georg Freiherr v. Wachtmeister being mentioned as a prussian Major. So I wonder if Glenn could work his magic on the son as well....

Thanking you very much for the details on both his family and career. Exactly what I was looking for!

Hi I am hoping to find out more on Axel Freiherr v. Wachtmeister via this forum. Here is what I have so far. Should there be any details on his kids, next to his careerdata, that would be most welcom 1. Anna Wilhelmine Marie Friederike Bock v. Wülfingen (geboren Lehe 30.06.1855, getauft katholisch Lehe 19.09.1855, gestorben Hannover 14.02.1941), heiratet Axel Freiherr von Wachtmeister, (geboren Friedenthal/Mark 13.12.1846, gestorben Hannover 16.05.1909), kgl. preuss. Oberstleutnant a.D. Regards David

great to hear about your bopk will it include a list of recipients wuth biographical and carwerdata?

heroic acts in front of the enemy. e.g. one got it for capturing the guns of which the metal later provided for the 1821 medals. But senior staff officials also got it.

no problem Did you get it directly from the family? Or in some kind of auction?

Hi Robert Carl Mùnchmeyer (?) was a Premierlieutenant in the 2. schles. GrenRegt Nr 11 in Breslau in 1874. He was the godfather of one of my relatives. Could you help me find his Stammliste entry? regards David

Hi I am looking for sometjing like a Stammliste of the Kadettenanstalt Oranienstein. I found a relative who was a Kadet there and died in 1873. Max Fick (geboren 28.11.1853, gestorben Flü… (Kanton Zürich) 17.11.1873) Kadet in Oranienstein. I have no idea how to get more information about him, maybe you gents do :-) many thanks David

Thanks Glenn, you´re the best!

Hi I am looking for the careerdates (preferably from stammliste) of the following officers. They were both in hannoverian service in 1863, and were maybe/hopefully transferred to the prussian army by 1866: Hauptmann Alexander Ostermeyer (1863 reitende Batterie) Premierlieutenant Hartwig Ostermeyer (1863 2nd Infanterie-Regiment) I do hope you could help me out with these 2 :-) Have a nice sunday regards David

That's a great photo. I 'd wish I had one of my ggrandfathers cousin. He was a mere observer, but got an EK1. I wonder why.. Did Buhl also get an EK1?

Thanks Stefan I had no idea, ordered my pdf copy :-)

Hi I'm looking for this book by Kurt Christoph v. Schwerin. If anyone is in possession of the book, I would like to get in touch. Can find it via googlebooks, but ist not displayed in full. Thanks a lot regards

so allegedly, it was not really an order, rather a cross, right?

What does the Roumanian House Order of Hohenzollern look like?
