  • Commands the Cavalry Division of VIII Corps at Borodino (1812, age 42)

The NB notes are contradicting. Théodore Chabert (1758–1845) or Pierre Chabert (1770–1839). Théodore Chabert was at Bailen and the Pyrenees, yet Pierre Chabert was loaned to Jerome, hence "Westphalian". The Borodino and Paris may refer to Pierre David de Colbert-Chabanais (Red Lancers, etc). Or Honoré de Balzac’s novella character Colonel Chabert. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
