Do you know something about military service of your ancestors in the times of Napoleonic Wars?
My great4grandfather was born in 1789 and married as 17 years old, in 1806, already.
First child of him was born and recorded in the church records in 1813.
The record mentioned him as a soldier.
I suppose that he fought in Napoleonic Wars as a soldier of Habsburg Empire.
Unfortunately, the church records did not mention a name of the regiment, he served in.
Nevertheless, people of this part of Moravia usually served at following
Infantry Regiments:
IR 1
IR 7
IR 20
IR 57
