Andrei Stepanovich Miloradovich (Russian: Андре́й Степа́нович Милора́дович; 1727, Pozniki, Poltava Oblast, then part of the Cossack Hetmanate - Chernigov, Imperial Russia, 2 May 1796) was a Russian military leader, statesman and lieutenant general. He is the father of Mikhail Miloradovich of Napoleonic Wars fame.

Born in 1727 in the village of Pozniki in the Chornukhy (that became a centesimal town Lubensky Regiment of the Hetmanate), he was descended from a Cossack sergeant of Serbian origin.[1]After graduating from the Kiev Theological Academy, he entered the military service in Little Russia, and in 1747 he received the title of ensign; in 1749, he was promoted to a lieutenant of a Life Guards company.

The Seven Years' War with Prussia from 1756 until 1762 gave Miloradovich a chance to show his courage, and gain several ranks on the field of honor, particularly in the battles of Kay, Kunersdorf and the Siege of Kolberg. In 1771 during the Russo Turkish War Brigadier Miloradovich, fighting under the command of Pyotr Rumyantsev, distinguished himself in the very first campaign.[2]

Rumyantsev's 1800 infantry soldiers and 300 Cossacks crossed the Danube and defeated a Turkish force of 7,000 at Măcin in the Dobrudja region of Romania. Rumyantsev, in his report to Empress Catherine II, wrote the following about the battle:

"... Major General Miloradovich, first with light actions that served to draw attention to himself, gained surface over the enemy at the town of Măcin, and on the 21st, having crossed to the fertile shore with his corps, attacked the enemy in their encampment at Măcin, ousted them, captured the town and a significant number of guns."

For this conspicuous act, Miloradovich was awarded the Order of Saint Anna, 1st degree and Empress Catherine II even reported the fact in her letters to Voltaire with whom she often corresponded.[3][4]

Alexander Suvorov, Semyon Petrovich Ozerov (1725-1807) and Miloradovich stood out as heroes of the Battle of Kozludzha in 1773; the defeat of the Turks was complete.[5] As a reward for his brave actions in the war of 1771-1774, Miloradovich received the Order of St. George, 3rd degree (№ 44) on 10 July 1775. In addition, he was granted the Voronki village in the Gorodishchensky centesimal Lubensky regiment.[6]

In 1779, Miloradovich was promoted to lieutenant general and soon was appointed the governor of the newly-established Chernigov Governorate, which he ruled for more than fifteen years, but the governorship existed for a relatively short time and was replaced by the establishment of Little Russia. In 1786 he was awarded the Order of Saint Vladimir, 2nd degree and the Order of Saint Alexander Nevsky.

He died on 2 May 1796 in Chernigov, and was buried in the Yeletskyi Dormition Monastery.[7]

The House of Miloradovich is listed in the nobility of the Russian Empire.[8]
