Hi Homeguard,

From the 1876 Harts Annual Army List

Under the heading :- Lt Colonels who have retired by sale of their commisions;

Colonel Richard Roney Dougal - Depot Battalion -26th October 1865

Lt. Colonel Roney-Dougal served as Major in the 1st Jager Corps, British German Legion, from it's formation, accompanied it to the East, and was eventually appointed to the command of the corps.

Hope this is of some help,

Mick :)
