There are more than a few different schemes for numbering the Rheinbund regiments, and they changed over time. Wurzbnurg is listed as #3 in 1809 in John Gill's "With Eagles to Glory". Regardless, the Wurzburg regiment served in Spain until 1812. |

SJDonovan, I haven't checked out Histofig in a while, so I don't know if it is back. I saved some pages while is was still up. |

@Major Function I've had a look for it and it doesn't seem to have come back up. It's a shame, it was a great resource. |
