Subject: Seeking resources to understand casualty lists
Author: Cynthia Christ

Surnames:

I just learned that my great great grandfather was a captain in the calvary of the Prussian Army and was a casualty of the Franco-Prussian War. Jahnke is the surname. Reportedly he was from East Prussia. I'm starting to review the casualty lists. I can read German Gothic print. But the codes in the casualty list I find difficult. Would anyone be able to point me to a resource that would provide guidance in reviewing?
