Hi there Kev,
Think this is brilliant!! I've stumbled across this forum while searching for my great grandmother's brother who I now find died in the Crimea. If you have anything on him I would be most grateful. His name is Gideon Petilla, from York. He was a private in the 2nd Rifle Brigade (60th regiment). I've been told by the National Army Museum that he most likely died from disease. He was about 21. I hope he is there. Fingers crossed!
