Hi all,

How about Chelsea Pensioner Records. I have a great/granduncle admitted as an In Pensioner on 1st Jan 1863 after 20yrs service in 12th of Foot. He died an Out pensioner of Chelsea Hospital in 1880. Any idea's?

Thank you
Shirley

Hello all,
Just joined after coming across reply from a Neil1821 with regards to the 1st Batt. 12th of Foot.
My great/granduncle William SKINNER of Worcester was Attested for the 12th at Coventry on 18th June 1838, aged 18. He served 20yrs 339days. !2.3/4yrs abroad. 7.1/2 in Maurituis....? And 5.1/4yrs in The Australian Colonies...?
I noticed that one of Neil's research names was SKINNER wondered if same family.

Kind regards
Shirley
