These references might be of interest: -Between the Imperial Eagles: Sweden's Armed Forces during the Revolutionary and the Napoleonic Wars 1780-1820 by various author contributors (19). -Den Danske Haer I Napoleonstiden 1801-1814 by Hans Christian Wolter, Helge Scheunchen, Ole Frantzen and Christian Wurgler Hansen. -The Danish Army of the Napoleonic Wars 1801-1814, Volume I by David Wilson. -The Danish Army of the Napoleonic Wars 1801-1814, Volume II by David Wilson. And the following might be useful to understand why Denmark entered the war on the side of the French: -Defying Napoleon: How Britain Bombarded Copenhagen and Seized the Danish Fleet in 1807 by Thomas Munch-Petersen |

From Denmark to "New" Zealand? Now that takes folks with a bit of imagination. I gather Denmark in 1864 was a bit dodgy (I have the series on BluRay) but I would have thought that most, getting out, ended up in Ellis Island. But I guess that is how NZ got its name, even if exactly on the other side of the globe. |

The Danish Auxiliary Corps served with Davout in 1813-1814. Johann Ewald, who was a Hessian jager officer serving with the British in North America against the Americans, left the Hessian service upon his return to Hesse-Cassel as he could not get promotion in that service. He transferred to the Danish service and became a general officer and died in 1813. He left a valuable memoir of his service in America and also wrote a treatise on light infantry. |
