Need lookup for England Barrack Sergeant mid1800s.
« on: Sunday 05 June 05 18:56 BST (UK) »
Is anybody able to look up the records of my relative, Edward Tuttle Gavin, born abt 1807-08, Duncannon Ireland, Barrack Sergeant? In 1851 he was at Chester Castle, Cheshire, 1857 in Kensington Calvary Barracks and 1861 he was at Kensington Palace until 1870. Wife Amelia Gavin (Partington)
I need his army records.
Help!
