A handwriting expert, Henry E. Thomas, asserts all samples attributed to Marshal Ney come from a single author. The tale follows Pierre le Roux, the convulsed path from oath to Louis XVIII, through Napoleon's Hundred Days, to Ney’s execution and a later voyage to America.

Randthaler finds plausible that Marshal Ney used the alias Peter Stuart derived from his mother’s English Stuart line. The theory rests on Peters notes written in a personal shorthand found in margins of textbooks and stored in the Davidson College library vault in Davidson North Carolina.
