Ludwig Yorck von Wartenburg
Johann David Ludwig Graf Yorck von Wartenburg (26 September 1759 – 4 October 1830) was a Prussian ''Generalfeldmarschall'' instrumental in the switching of the Kingdom of Prussia from a French alliance to a Russian alliance during the War of the Sixth Coalition. Ludwig van Beethoven's "Yorckscher Marsch" is named in his honor.
The Field Marshal's surname is Yorck; Wartenburg is a battle-honour appended to the surname as a title of distinction (cf. Britain's Montgomery of Alamein).
==Background==
Yorck's father, David Jonathan Jark (von Gostkowski), was born in Rowe in Pomerania (today Rowy, Poland), to a Lutheran Pastor and was a ''Hauptmann'' (captain) in Frederick II of Prussia's army. Yorck's mother was born in Potsdam. His family came from a small estate in Gostkow and traced its origins from the Kashubians of Pomerania. Yorck was born in Potsdam and changed his name from ''Jark'' to ''Yorck'' to make it look more English (York) and dropped the "von Gostkowski".
