Title: 1799 - Solider in the 3rd batallion of ???
Post by: nbourkie on Sunday 12 April 20 14:19 BST (UK)

Hi All,

This is an old parish record from Perth, Scotland 1799, showing the marriage between William Spence and Christian Gray.

Would anyone be able to tell me what is written after what I assume says 'soldier in the third [batallion] of....' ??

Thank you!

If you Google Breadalbanes Fencibles there are a few items about them.
