Egypt Medal 1884 -1886
« on: Friday 01 October 10 20:23 BST (UK) »
Recently there were a number of exchanges about the 1884-1886 Egpyt Medal.

My great grandfather was awarded this medal.

Is there any list anywhere of the British Army recipients?

Thanks & regards. Peter Charles

His name was Thomas de Velly (or Develly), born I don't know where, but about 1860. He married in Cairo in 1884 when he was a Sub-Inspector of the Egyptian Police, pesumably as part of the British administration around that periodd. I have the Consular Birth Certificate of his daughter (my grandmother), born Cairo 1889.
