hello Kev,
I have an ancestor who seems to have disappeared from the records around this time, so I wonder if he fought in the Crimea. He is Henry Stewart, an infantryman of the 1st regiment Foot (I think that may be what is later the Royal Scots, but not sure). He had been living in Edinburgh in 1851, he was born c1815 and was originally a flesher to trade, though his daughter's marriage cert. show him as belonging to this regiment.
I know it's a bit of a long shot, but would be delighted if you can find anything, thanks.
Janet
