The posthumous Diary edition is not extremely reliable concerning historical dates and correct german terms. Phinney did not receive an Iron Cross, it was reserved for soldiers who were active in battle. I corrected that. --Grizma (talk) 17:16, 21 October 2020 (UTC)Reply

Researching this at the birth register of the State Church Office in Dresden. The Zwickau archive did not have any original entries for the beginning of the 19th century. It is very likely that he was not born 1810, but 1814. But the source we found for the german article is also not extremely reliable. --Grizma (talk) 17:20, 21 October 2020 (UTC)Reply
The information of the Ev.-Luth. Landeskirche Sachsens, Regionalkirchenamt Dresden (Central (Micro-)Film Register) showed that I was correct regarding my original assumptions about the date of birth of Gustav Adolph von Olnhausen in 1809: "The baptismal entry of Gustav Adolph von Olnhausen is recorded in the baptismal register of the parish of St. Marien Zwickau. Baptismal register of the parish of St. Marien Zwickau 1801-1818, born 1809, page 225, running no. 11. In this entry the date of birth is February 19, 1809. The son mentioned in the list of churches in Zwickau, born on April 4, 1814, is Otto von Olnhausen, another son of Friedrich Karl von Olnhausen. Baptismal register of the parish of St. Marien Zwickau 1801-1818, year of birth 1814, page 390, running no. 31".
