This is yet another genealogical entry. The subject appears to have attracted no significant coverage other than in genealogical publications. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, however, not a dumping ground for genealogy of obscure make-believe princes. See WP:NOTGENEALOGY policy. The subject's military career is similarly obscure; the focus is obviously on his descendants, low-profile, private individuals. I see no indication that the topic might pass WP:BASIC or WP:GNG.

Weak keep per WP:MIL. He was one of the general staff officers who surrendered on VE Day, although he would fail my standard for relatives of nobility. Bearian (talk) 14:12, 18 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
