    Hi Gents

    I am looking for data on the career of the sachson officer Alban von Montbe. Over the internet I could ifnd out he was Stadtkommandant of Dresden 1874-1885. He also held the Inhaberkreuz (=4th Class) of the Wilhelmsorden, that's why I am interested in the 1st place. A picture would be great too :rolleyes:

    Thanks a lot

    David,

    here is General Alban v. Montb?. He was not the Kommandant of Dresden but the commander of the 2. Infanterie-Division Nr. 24 at Leipzig from 22 December 1873 - 10 Mar 1885. He lived to a great age dying on 28 January 1911.

    Regards

    Glenn

    David,

    the portrait and the text is from "Die Generale der deutschen Armee von 1848-1871", Band II by G v. Glasenapp. Here is the General`s death notice from the Saxon Army "Milit?r-Verordnungsblatt".

    Regards

    Hi Glenn

    That is an interesting title!!! is it set-up by country and does it also contain the last kurhessian Generals 1848-1866 like Schirmer, Kaltenborn and R?ppell von Helmschwerdt?

    Hi Glenn,

    as my research progresses, I found some other senoir prussian officers
