Regiment Prinz Carl is found in HETRINA II. General Major Martin Konrad Schmitt has only four enties against his name. The first has him "present" in the Stammrolle of April 1775 which predates deployment The second is from the Rangliste which has him dying from non-battle causes in May 1780 The third and fourth go to the same Monatliche Listen (blaue Nr. 8824, f. 17) dated May 1780 and has him dying from non-battle causes and also code 18 "krank zurükgelieben" or "remained in Europe sick" All four entries give his place of origin as Dusemond, old postal code D5550 The last pair of entries give his year of birth as 1720/21. This is a "manufactured date based on his age at the time of the report. In this case his age in May 1780 when he died (in Germany) was given as age 59. The Henrich Schmitt you probably are looking for was an officer who also has four entries against his name. The first has him "present" as a Fähnrich (Ensign) in the Stammrolle of April 1775 which predates deployment The second is from the Rangliste which has him promoted to Secondeleutnat (2nd Lieutenant) in Feb 1777. The third is from Monatliche Listen (blaue Nr. 8824, f. 19) dated June 1777 [sic] which has him separated in America. The fourth is from the Rangliste dated June 1778 [sic] which has him separated in America. None of the four enries lists a place of origin or year of birth. The other two men named Henrich Schmitt were Privates in the 2nd and 4th companies, respectively, of Regiment von Ditfurth.
