Hi! Thanks for your efforts! So his final prussian odm ROA4 DAK EK2 Could you provide the source you found the details about him? I would love to add these to his entry on my website later on. Maybe he dropped the former civilian part of his last name. His father however was ennobled with the additional predicate of v. H. in 1818. Anyway R.v.H. was the name our later colonel was born with in 1823. Thanks again David

Many of you know about my era and area of interest. Some of you know about the website I started. This thread will serve as a place to announce updates on a regular basis Just now I completed the page on the kurhessian Husaren-Regiment 1803-1806, with some analyses and links to sources. https://kurhessen.owlstown.net/pages/1897 Enjoy and tell me what you think of the information and presentation. .

It appears that in the early 1830s, there were paintings of the Befreiungskriege installed in the Louvre. Appearently, the King of France admired the paintings and the actions of german units. This is said to have been the cause for some FEL promotion and awards. E.g. the kurhessian later Generalleutnant Bauer was promoted in the FEL. He wore only his royal FEL in later pictures as I recall. Could the reason for showing to different grades of the FEL at Seebachs entry in the ranklist mean that he wore his imperial FEL5 and his royal FEL4?
