There is one possible death in 1901 but if he's the chap mentioned in the 1901 Irish census then his census details are wrong.


Hi again...

I just had another look at the 1901 Ireland census. I didn't notice previously but the George THOMAS I earlier discounted is actually listed as a Pensioner. To be precise a "Pensnior".

I'm not sure what the term "Pensioner" specifically means in this context but your George was definitely an out-pensioner of the Royal Chelsea Hospital.

Will ask on your Co.Antrim thread to see if anyone knows the definition of a pensioner in 1901. Hopefully it's something to do with old soldiers.

Still sorting out a reply to your Army Board thread. Just want to organise it so I don't embarrass myself. There's some really clever clogs on that board.

Have you given any thought to the "Imperial Pension Accounts" look-up. Possibly a dead end. Possibly not :)

Regards
Beg

Thank you Beg. It is one of those weeks (am posting while waiting at the doctors). I will organise it. You are a gold mine of information. The Imperial Pensions Account is a great idea! Thanks again!

Hi Tiki,

Beg asked me to have a look for your George in the General Biographical Card Index [BIO 1] and I've found him;

George THOMAS, Serg't 70th Regiment, Pensioner, file ref: T9/2 p. 210.

I have ordered the file and hope to return tomorrow to sight it.
