Brunswick Waterloo Medal Avantgarde - Medal Roll Info?

[RobS]

Dear Community,

 

Nice, untouched Brunswick Waterloo medal for Heinrich Benthagen, Avantgarde. Ribbon is the original one, hard to see on my rather crappy photos, but the two lines for the blue silk stiching are still visible, sadly they have worn off. The mustard yellow silk has become really thin and fragile. 

 

Anyway - Would anyone have the medal roll info for Heinrich? 

 

Warm regards and all the best

Here is what I have: Heinrich Benthagen, Avantgarde, born in Woltdorf, when he recieved the medal, he allready took his leave, so he wasn't active any more and wasn't part of the reserve!

Hi, I have checked my lists, but couldn't find a Johann Maurer, sorry! I have checked officiers, ncos and soldiers.

Very kind of you. Maybe it is not Johan but he definitely was Corporal Maurer from Leib Battalion as per the rim inscription.
