How would I be able to view that 7166 names of soldiers for Napoleon army in 1812 ???? Thank you---- Harvey Wiederspahn [email protected]

Hello Harvey, the lists of names are in the archive. For the Baden soldier exits a veteran chronicle which was published in 1843: "vollständiges alphabetisches Verzeichnis derjenigen Veteranen, welche in den Badischen Diensten Feldzüge mitgemacht und die Felddienstauszeichnung erhalten haben 1792 - 1815." In this book there are only the names of soldiers who got a "Felddienstauszeichnung". A same book exists for Württemberg (1840). I saw both books in the library in Stuttgart. Yes, list of soldiers are a good source of information. I believe the oldest list in our area exists for the domination Lahr and Mahlberg in the year 1579 which contains 1672 men of 20 towns.
