Karl Ulrich Friedrich Wilhelm Moritz von Hirschfeld (4 July 1790 in Halberstadt – 13 October 1859 in Coblenz), Prussian general, got his schooling in a military academy.
Lieutenant Moritz received severe wounds two times in battle, and ended in French captivity.
Hirschfeld returned to the Prussian army in 1815, and in the succeeding peaceful years climbed the ranks in the military.
He participated in the battles which drove the rebel army out of the Palatinate and into the arms of the [Baden] forces under Mieroslawski.
Then he participated in the battle at the Murg which obligated the rebel army to disperse and resulted in the collapse of the uprising.
