Joseph LaLande De Ferriere (died 23 Nov 1875), was a Private in the Confederate Army during the American Civil War and served in Co. E, 4th Regiment, 2nd Brigade, 1st Division, Louisiana Militia. Lieutenant Antoine Joseph Corbesier (1837-1916) USMC was a Belgian national born in Brussels.

Lorenzo Sabine (1803-1877) was born in New Concord (now Lisbon), New Hampshire, and became a United States Representative from Massachusetts in 1833.

Wellington (Arthur Wellesley, 1st Duke of, 1769-1852). Autograph letter signed to Sir Charles Stuart, Baron Stuart de Rothesay (1779-1845), envoy extraordinary and minister plenipotentiary at Lisbon, Celorico, 17 June 1810, 2 bifolia written on all 8 sides, gilt edges, toned, 4to (23 x 18.6 cm) (Qty: 1)NOTESGurwood, The Dispatches of Field Marshal the Duke of Wellington (1836), volume 6 pp. 192-3. With the Spanish garrison at Ciudad Rodrigo under siege by maréchal Ney, Wellington adopts a sceptical opinion on the possibility of reliable counter-intelligence: 'I do not think that any measure can be adopted, with propriety, to prevent the circulation of false reports, or to remedy the evil which results from them ... I would not recommend publication, as it might lead to inconveniences of another description, and is beneath the dignity of every government ... The enemy broke ground before Ciudad Rodrigo on the night before last, but they have not yet brought up their heavy ordnance'. Sir Charles Stuart undertook intelligence gathering with the provincial juntas in French-occupied Spain (1808-10) and afterwards 'made himself indispensable to Wellington' as minister at Lisbon (1810-14) and member of the Portuguese regency council. He later helped negotiate the treaty by which Brazil became independent from Portugal.

He was, like Hastings, also a prominent abolitionist; his granddaughter was Florence Nightingale. Amherst was governor-general of Bengal from 1823 to 1827, and Bentinck from 1828 to 1835.
