...two photos of Josef Kremžar Edl. von Felskampf (probably one of the last few nobilited persons in Austria-Hungary - diplom from 22.10.1918)... He is wearing EKO.III and MVK.3...

...looks very similar to a piece mentioned in article from mr. Tusek: Miniatures of austrian orders from monarchy era, part 2 - order of golden fleece, in SIGNUM 4/december 2003... "...miniature in gold, made after 1920..."

...The one from Peter made post 1918 I think.. what is the material? photo of rear side? measures?

Elmar: fantastic...

Gold merit cross with crown, silver hallmarked, marked G.A.S....

I want to contact embassy but first try to find out about him so much as possible. And also contact an expert to know the options for reconstruction and choose the best one. And also to know how much will that cost..

...another one..

..date of birth only from grave, but i will try to contact wienna, maybe they have there something...

Informations about his career in K.k. Army from Schemtismus (1837-1846)

I found informations about the marriage (1846) and birth of two daughters (1847 nad 1848), in the next year he died, a year after him also his wife... The older daughter (married Peters) had a son Erich Maria Demeter - later also a soldier of KuK Army.

Here is the marriage record (hungarian)..

Dear Collegues..

Looking for any informations on austrian officer named Thomas Crewe-Preston (sometimes written as Creve Preston), in 1845 Oberlieutenant of Kurassier Regiment Nr.4. Born 10.2.1816 in London, died 10.8.1849 in Bosing near Pressburg (now Pezinok, Slovak republic). Mentioned in 1837 as Cadet of KR.4, later Unterlieutenant, from 1844 Oberlieutenant. Married to Antonia Edle von Nedeczky (*1825+1850). I found the Grave of them, want to find some informations on them.. Maybe it would help to raise some money for reconstruction of the gravestone.

Thanks

Ivan

hmm... unfortunatly it wont be this one.. the dimension for cross is only cca 3,5x4,5cm... and the box dimensions are cca 6x11cm...

Dear Collegues..

Its a long time I am trying to find out for which order is this case..

Finaly I think its a box for "hausorden der wendichen krone", made for austro-hungarian recipient (triangular ribbon)...

Is it possible?

...a gift from a friend...

...few feldposts from A-H.. i like those "..Flammenwerfer kommando..." and "polish legions"..

..yes, the Golden Spur is correct, the last one is one of the 1866 medals - Tirol or Prague (the men on the photo is czech, so I would guess the Prague 1866 medal)...

...the first has something to do with the papal state..

...oh, i forgot... the photograph is made 1882, so no Jubilee medal

..here one civilian with medals... and one brain - teaser.. who can guess wich medals is he wearing?

Stabsfeldwebel (Staff Sergeant) Leopold (Lipót) Gérer, Platoon Commander (Zugskommandant), Maschinengewehr Kompanie III. (III. Machine gun Company). He is wearing "Great" silver bravery medal - two times awarded, "Little" silver bravery medal, bronze bravery medal, Karl - Troops Cross and Mobilization Cross 1912/13...

...a hungarian soldier but wearing few KuK medals

wraith42: Thank you veru much... Can I ask from where is this article?

OK, thanks for informations.. If anybody is interrested in any of these ribbons, write me, I don´t need them we can make some change

..very nice.. unfotunatly i had to give up most of my ribbons, but some few left...

Dear collegues...
