Just had a thought, Looking at my Gt Gt Grandads admission to Royal Hospital Chelsea in November 1821 it clearly gives his regiment as 13th Regiment of Foot and also gives his death in Manchester on 7th March 1862. That means we can discount the Luke Jennings in the 88th and 94th foot. Thank God for that i was really beginning to get confused

You miss the point I'm trying to make

Take out FMP's trial and look at the info yourself............much the best way

Just one last question, now we have confirmed that my Gt Gt Granddad Luke Jennings was in the 13th Regiment of foot and was discharged in 1826, can you just confirm for me, was he paid 15 shillings for 10 days march to Killala or was he paid £1 17 shillings and 6p for march to Castletown ? really looking forward to your response. thank you both.

Did you read the question I asked at the start of my last post?

And the additional info about Castletown added earlier?

Don't just 'skim'....................please.
