Ian Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 Gentlemen, The name of this Bavarian General has escaped me to date, and that is mostly due to the fact that i have absolute zero on the Bavarian Army. I would be most grateful for any assistance in helping to identify my General. Regards, Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rick Research Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 That appears to be the double-knight (***) Maximilian Ritter von Höhn (1859-1936) in an especially understaed get up--since he had virtually everything. ***He was first ennobled as "Ritter von" in 1911 by bestowal of the Bavarian Civil Merit Order. He would have been ennobled with the same title (if he had not already been) when decorated with the Military Max Joseph Order in September 1914. Is that an original photo or?....

Ian Posted August 3, 2013 Author Share Posted August 3, 2013 Rick, Fantastic! Thank you. The picture I posted is a slightly resized postcard. I basically cut the top quarter off (a mere plain background) Post stamped 13.8.16.11-12. S.B. 9. Komp.111./ L.I.R. 6 Regards, Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
