What regiment please?
« on: Friday 20 January 06 19:41 UTC (UK) »

Hi, please could anybody help me find out what regiment an ancestor of mine called George Hambleton was in. He was a Chelsea outpensioner after retiring from the army at about the age of 32 in 1822 after being in it for 15 years. He was in the 7th Dragoons but I am not really sure where to go on from there. Please could anybody help me find some kind of association or group who might be able to help me?

Would be very grateful for any help anybody could give me.

Thanks
