Armed Forces / Re: Military Advice please - Charles Pocock Royal Artillery died Bangalore 1899

Royal Horse Artillery - magnificent - his family were employed in a London household as butlers, grooms, footmen, coachmen - I know he's the fellow I have been looking for! Thanks

Does anyone know enough about army life to be able to decipher this part of Charles army record - he joined the Royal Artillery so the 1st line 'field arty' and 'driver' are fine but the short hand on the 2nd line has me stumped - K?? H. A. the next column looks like Q Potter? I'd be grateful if anyone has any suggestions - thanks

I have just found this person on findmypast - military papers etc. I've looked on the internet but cannot find why someone would be there. He may not have been fighting as he died of 'enteric fever'
I presume he would have been buried there His military no is 15133. This is the 1st military search I have made & would appreciate any advice - thanks

Hi - good to hear from you - yes I am still here - and not too far from London either. At the same time as I got this notification I received a forwarded message from an Aussie group as well so I'll email you on that email address - Suzanne

Wow!!!!! Thomas Leonard Ellis (1861-1897) is my great great uncle. In the 1891 census he is shown as living at Dudley House in Coatbridge. Please do reply to this email - policy is not to allow email addresses here (I think)
