Help with lookup for Crimean War Medal Please

[mouse49]

Following another post to this group earlier this week, Ken suggested I try to find if my ancestor was on the Crimean War Medal roll.

If someone has access to the Roll could you please see if there is a John Hedges, born Froxfield, Wilts, c 1823. He was with the 49th Foot Regiment.

I am also wondering if his brother William born c 1826 might have also been with the same regiment.

Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.
