Edward SAVAGE - Berwickshire Coastguard 1870

[crimea1854]

Henry T Beasley served on HMS Cumberland as an Ordinary Seaman, so they did not serve together. As a collector of Crimea Medals to men in the RN I would be interested to know if Henry's medal is engraved or plain as issued?

I see there are two service records for Henry (born Maidstone 5 Jan 1828) on the NA website, one pre and the other post 1873.

Hi Martin,

Henry's medal is plain as issued.

Got the 9 children who appear on census - Savage and Beasley combined with approx. birth years

George Edward 1852
Mary Jane 1854
James 1859
Elizabeth 1861

Celia Isabella 1864
Harriet E 1865
Richard Henry 1868
Sophia Sarah 1871
Caroline Amelia 1873

So there is a gap between the second and third in which another child could have been born **

** There's a Harry Savage born 1856 Berwick mothers name Savage.
Plus sadly a death a year later.
