Armed Forces / Thomas McCROSSAN in Napoleonic Wars
« on: Wednesday 21 June 23 03:19 BST (UK)  »
My 3 X great grandfather Thomas McCROSSAN was born c 1791 in (probably) Castlederg,Co Tyrone,Ireland. From newspaper in 1846 Bankruptcy & Insolvency-“Thomas McCROSSAN,Late of Dartans,previously of Kilcroagh & formerly of Cardreen,Co Tyrone & of HIGH STREET,GLASGOW; Pensioner & Weaver”. He was living at High Street,Glasgow in 1841 Scotland census with his 2nd wife Sarah,nee McCRUDDEN & family.
Thomas was in 28th Regiment of Foot & he served in the Napoleonic Wars. He died 4 Sep 1847 (but dont know where)

My question is- as an Army Pensioner , would he have received a little money even if he emigrated to Pennsylvannia,USA? There is a suggestion that he went there but nothing concrete. Are there any other Records available (other than those below) which may help me?

According to -https://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/details/r/C10355045
WO 121/212/223 THOMAS MCCROSSAN alias THOMAS MCCROSSIN.Born URNEY, Tyrone.
Served in 28th Foot Regiment; 8th Royal Veteran Battalion; 2nd Royal Veteran Battalion.
Discharged aged 38 after 13 years 9 months of service.
Residence or place where pension paid stated in document.
See film image 461. (This record should be on Findmypast- but cant access it)

Just adding other transcription info below-

On actual image it says from Skirrow (hard to read birth place), Co Tyrone, occupation WEAVER (so confirming again this is the correct Thomas)

Huntingdonshire / Houghton area baptism lookup please?
« on: Saturday 02 November 19 12:13 GMT (UK)  »
Could someone please lookup the baptism of Ann SISMAN (or FLANDERS) born c 1824 in Houghton area. She was the daughter of James FLANDERS. Trying to get further confirmation that her mother was Elizabeth SISMAN.

Ann would have been born when Elizabeth was only about 16 years old so she may been baptised as SISMAN with mother as Elizabeth ,a single woman.  James FLANDERS & Elizabeth SISMAN married later in 1840. Before I send off for their marriage certificate,(which will probably just say they were both of Full age & not their actual ages-so no real help),I thought Id ask on here if anyone can find her baptism record.

In the 1851 census, Elizabeth FLANDERS is with her husband James & her father George SISMAN. Ann FLANDERS married in 1842 –no need for more info.

Thanks for your help
