Am trying to establish if there is a family relationship between the 3 Gleesons below, I believe that they are a father and 2 sons but with one possible son born in Ireland and none together on any census its quite difficult - but hoping rootschatters can do their stuff:
Patrick Gleeson, born 1836 (Thurles, Ireland) joined 47th Regt. Foot 1854 and was eventually discharged from the service in Fermoy Ireland in 1876 as a Staff Sergeant.
Patrick married a Margaret Foote in Chelsea barracks in 1858.
Andrew Fitzwilliam Gleeson, born 1860 Aldershot. when discharged from the Service (RASC) in 1920 he was a Quartermaster and Hon. Lt.Col and been awarded an OBE.
Patrick John Gleeson born 1862 Ireland was KIA in Naauwpoort SA in 1900 at which time he was a Quartermaster & Hon.Lt. in the RASC.
Any help appreciated.
Regards
Ray
