Scottish Chelsea Pensioner
« on: Sunday 05 November 06 13:13 GMT (UK) »
Can anyone help please!

I have had some information from the Aberdeen Family History Society, about a Lauchlan Mceachren, he is my GGGGGrandfather.
The only information they have is as follows.

Year 1816  McEachren (36) age 23;  ft 103; page 387
Soldiers index 89-104 Artillery 1806- 1838.

Can anyone advice where I go from here? .

              Regards Yonder.

Hi yonder

Is it possible to ask them what index the 89-104 refers?
