    My question is, do there exist rolls with the names from German recipients?

    My hope is, that it is possible to identify the former owner with the help from forum members.

    Eyery help appreciated.

    Kind regards
    Andreas

    There is 3 volume "Royal Service". I understand the recipient list is available in there. 

    Bit I also have read that in the "first years" (whatever it means exactly), the list of foreign recipient was not complete.

    Andreas:  Gantzer and Thomel are not on the list for the RVM.  I have no idea what you mean by the "Danish list" as I can not find any mention of it in any of the posts in this topic. I  though that you were seeking German recipients.  I am totally confused!

    Regards, Gunner 1

    Hi Gunner 1, I´ve posted a medal from a German medal bar in the Danish sektion, and

    I got a list with German recipients, a collectors friend check these names aganist the

    Dutch medal (from the same bar) I´ve posted here in the Dutch sektion. Gantzer and Thomel are the persons

    who got both the Danish and the Dutch medal. So my hope was, that you could confirm his RVM too.

    Sorry for the confusion.

    Kind regards

    Hi Gents,

    Gantzer can be excluded, he has several medals more.

    Traugott Thomel is a hot name. Is it possible,

    that his RVM is gazetted somewhere?

    Regards
    Andreas

    Thomel Frangott is listed as receiving the RVM in silver on 17 February 1905 for the Arthur Duke of Connaught's visit to Berlin for the opening of the Protestant cathedral. He is listed as portier.

    Hope this is of help
