History research question

Dec 06, 2009 23:22

Hi guys,

This gentleman was one of the russian generals fighting French army during Borodino battle. I highly suspect that I am just not doing the search correctly, but I just cannot hit on his detailed biography no matter how hard I try. There are plenty of russian and french sources about Borodino, but this guy is not the most famous one apparently and I just want to do a head desk.

Okay, I at least figured out that he died next year (boy I hope not in captivity, will not do any good for what I am writing at all), but that is about it. UGH.

Any internet wizards or deeply knowledgeable people about russian generals during Napoleonic campaing in Russia help please?
