Hi I would like to know if there is any way in I can get information on Gustav v. Albedhyll/Albidyll (1790-1863) who stood in a swedish unit from 1813-1815 entered as Lieutenant, coming from württemberg militairy service and left for prussian service when he was a Captain. I would like to know if possible when he stood in which unit as well as his promotion date to Captain. Any suggestions most welcome Regards David

Hi! I am looking for possible info on the career of Major Gustav v. ALBIDYLL. He died 1863 and ended his prussian militairy career in the Leib-Infanterie-Regiment (which became LGR 1. Brandenburgisches Nr. 8). As the Offiziernomenklatur at the GSAPK starts at Bor-, I was not able to find anything there. Any additional information appreciated! Regards David

Did you translate the entries in the Entlass-schein? If not let me know and I will se how far I can get. -
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?
