1799 - Solider in the 3rd batallion of ???
« on: Sunday 12 April 20 14:19 BST (UK) »
Hi All,

This is an old parish record from Perth, Scotland 1799, showing the marriage between William Spence and Christian Gray.

Would anyone be able to tell me what is written after what I assume says 'soldier in the third [batallion] of....' ??

Thank you!
