Re: 5ten Compagnie 1.Schlesischen Infanterie-R

Nachweisung derer Mannschaften bey der 5ten Compagnie des Ersten Schlesischen Infanterie Regiments
die auf folgende Monathe an Löhnung noch zu empfangen haben. Tettelstädt d. 8te December 1813.

It is a list of men who have not yet received their pay for the months listed. It goes back to the 1812 campaign.

No. 59 is a train servant (Knecht) named Hanet.

Carl Friedrich v. Blumen had been company commander in the 2nd battalion. Fallen ill in September 1813, he returned to his regiment on 30th October. In November, he was made commander of the 2nd company of Füsiliers. You find this on pp. 156 f. of his memoirs, which were edited by Cd. M. von Unruh under the title: Von Jena bis Neiße. (Leipzig 1904).

Probably the list you posted is part of the admistrative work when he handed his old company over to its new commander.

In February 1814, Blumen fell ill again and had to stay back in Chalons, thus escaping being taken prisoner oder killed on 14th February. So the list you posted probably was in the possession of the new commander of 5th company.

It would be great if you could post all the Prussian documents you found, as they give some rare insights into the administrative life in the Prussian army of the period.
