Armed Forces / Re: Lookup offer for crimea casualty list and indian mutiny
« on: Tuesday 26 August 08 16:08 BST (UK) »
Hi Kev
My 3x great grand uncle George Dowse, born about 1836 Coventry, was in the KRRC at Meerut during the Sepoy Rebellion of 1857. He wound up by the 1871 census in Millbank Prison in London shown as soldier/prisoner. From the 1881 and 1891 census he was a soldier/inmate at Grove Hall Lunatic Asylum in Bow. He may have died about 1901 in Bow. Is there any mention of a George Dowse (variants - Dows, Douce, etc.) in the casualty lists or medal rolls for the Indian Mutiny?
Thanks
Paul
