From Wikipedia

Peter Graf von Lacy (26 September 1678 – 30 April 1751) was an Irish-born soldier who later served in the Imperial Russian Army. Considered one of the most successful Russian commanders before Rumyantsev and Suvorov, in a military career that spanned half a century he claimed to have participated in 31 campaigns, 18 battles, and 18 sieges. He died on his private estate in Riga, where he served as governor for many years. His remains were buried in the crypt of the Catholic church in Skaistkalne, in southern Latvia. One of his sons was Count Franz Moritz von Lacy, who went on to serve in the Imperial Habsburg Army, while his nephew George Browne (1698–1792) was also a general in the Russian army.
