    Saschaw,

    Many thanks for the information. If possible, could you please provide award dates for the following:

    GFM Gebhard Blucher

    Friedrich Graf Kleist von Nollendorff

    Albert Kronprinz von Sachsen

    Also, does your source include all recipients of the BV1? Thanks in the advance.

    It does, while it lists all receipients of the order and medal - by name, no matter when or what was awarded. All classes of crosses and medals mixed, from Napoleonic times up to 1918. Without names, you would have to check whole the book.

    :banger:

    GFM Gebhard Blücher: 1814 without date

    Friedrich Graf Kleist von Nollendorff: 30.08.1819

    Albert Kronprinz von Sachsen: cannot find him

    Saschaw,

    Thank you again for the award dates. Unfortunate that the book does not list by grade. Here are a few more that I am interested in. I'm not sure if they received the BV1 or not.

    KARL Friedrich Gustav Wilhelm Maximillian von Baden

    Gustav Friedrich von Beyer

    Johann Baptist Lingg von Linggenfeld

    Heinrich von Porbeck

    Ludwig WILHELM August von Baden

    Friedrich Karl von Tettenborn

    Thanks again.

    KARL Friedrich Gustav Wilhelm Maximillian von Baden - think I don't have this one

    Gustav Friedrich von Beyer - BV2a on 26.12.1870but probably not as a Christmas gift

    Johann Baptist Lingg von Linggenfeld - BV3(!) 19.12.1807 and BV2 05.09.1809. No BV1 either.

    Heinrich von Porbeck - BV2 on 22.09.1807

    Ludwig WILHELM August von Baden - 04.04.1807

    Friedrich Karl von Tettenborn - BV2(!!!) in 1815. Don't have him for BV1.

    If you have e.g. a cross, don't hestitate to show... :whistle:

    All,

    Here are a few more. Hope someone can help.

    Yermolov, Aleksei Petrovich

    Volkonsky (Wolkonski), Petr

    Dovre, Fydor F

    All were Russian from the Napoleonic era.

    John

    Yermolov, Aleksei Petrovich - listed as Yermaloff, "Kaiserlich Russischer Generalleutnant", grand cross on august 30th, 1814

    Volkonsky (Wolkonski), Petr - listed as "Fürst Wolkonski, Kaiserlich Russischer Feldmarschall". Date of award unknow, but the Grand Cross was returned to the Ordenskanzlei on april 13th, 1853.

    Dovre, Fydor F - cannot find him. Other possible spellings, maybe?!

    Posted

    Saschaw,

    Thanks for the reply. Dovre might be found as Graf D'Auvray or something like that. He was in Russian service during the Napoleonic Wars. Hope you are able to find him.

    In addition to D'Auvray, could you please check if Count Molitor, Gabriel Jean Joseph, Marshalof France also received the BV.
