      2) British Sodier J. McKenzie

      In russian archive - only russian discription of names and without Regiment .

      I think - McKenzie receive cross for Waterloo Battle .

      I know -

      A Dispatch from

      Field-Marshal The Duke of Wellington,

      dated Headquarters,

      Paris 21st August1815,

      contains the following list of General Officers upon whom

      His Majesty The Emperor Russia

      had conferred different Decorations of different classes of

      the Orders of St. George,

      St. Anne, and St. Vladimir,

      "in testimony of His Majesty's approbation of their services and conduct, particularly in the late battles fought in The Netherlands".
