Battle of Waterloo Medal 1815 to a King's German Artillery Officer, wounded


Lieutenant (later Captain) Lewis Heise, King’s German Artillery, a veteran of the campaign in Northern Germany in 1813-14 and of the battle of Waterloo in 1815 where he was wounded

Waterloo 1815 (Lieut. Lewis Heise, King’s Germ. Artillery.) fitted with replacement steel clip and ring suspension; edge bruising and contact marks, therefore nearly very fine or better.

Provenance - An important Collection of Medals to the K.G.L., Dix Noonan Webb, April 2003 (Waterloo medal only).

Lewis Heise (also seen as Louis and Ludwig) was born on 25 May 1789, in Hannover and commissioned as a Second Lieutenant in the King’s German Artillery on 15 December 1812. He served in the campaign in Northern Germany in 1813-14, and was present with the 2nd Company at the battle of Waterloo where he was either severely wounded (London Gazette refers) or slightly wounded (Beamish refers) on 18 June. His Waterloo medal was dispatched to him at Hannover as a Captain on half pay. He died in Hannover on 7 September 1850 at the young age of 51.

Sold with copied roll extracts and other research, including details of two letters from Lieutenant Heise, extracted from the Siborne papers, written in 1835 and 1837, which rather unusually for an Artilleryman detail his service at Waterloo, all saved to a USB memory stick.
