ROSEBROOK, Ambrose; ; London LND ENG; Cork Examiner (COR IRL); 1865-6-16; dja It shows he died in London as i believed he did - but I don't understand why his death was reported in Ireland. He had been a soldier with the Staffordshire regiment (53rd foot) and I don't know if he left or was killed but I do know he received the Indian mutiny medal. Can anyone help please? Alice
