Hi Martin, just out of interest after finding this thread with your kind offer, is there any Denby family names on the list from the Snaith area of Yorkshire.

Absolutely no rush for the information, just found the thread and it stirred my curiosity.

Regards always

A very generous offer

I have an ancestor by the name of Timothy Hill (born circa 1790) who served at Waterloo according to his discharge papers, could you look him up see if you have anything?

Kind Regards,
Joel

Thank you. A very nice offer indeed. Please can you look up and see if there was anyone with the surname of Ebdon, and born around Devonshire, at Waterloo?

Cheers. :)

Hello Martin,
Was wondering if you can help with any more details about this man Tobias HANDCOCK c1796 born Ireland, and an Ensign of 27th (Or Inniskilling) Regiment of Foot.
Cheers
HeatherR
ps...Does the "W" before his name signify Battle of Waterloo?  Saw it on some entries and wondered it that is what it meant.

Please lookup Obadiah Goulding, born about 1794.  He was in the Foot Guards in 1813.

Martin, what a great offer.

I wonder if you have the name of Charles Hide, born 24 -10-1782 in Bury St.Edmunds.

I`m desperate to find this 3x grandfather.

He left after ..?....and married in 1817 in St.-Petersburg an English lady who was born in that town.

He seemed to spoke more then just English.

So I was wondering has he joined the army and then went on to Russia ?

Many thanks,

elcas

I keep seing this thread popping up as people request lookups.

Juat to let everyone know that Martin hasn't been on rootschat since February this year, so you may or may not get lookups for your men.

Is he contactable or his database available elsewhere?  His database is worth some money.
