Thomas Stonyer, birthpace?

[mezentia]

I have attached a clip from the UK regimental Registers of Service for a Thomas Stonyer. I can't make out his birthplace in Staffordshire. It appears to say Hansame, but I can't find any place with that name in Staffordshire. There's also what appears to be an occupation in the third column from the right that I can't quite make out. Any ideas, please?

occupation is Labourer (labr)

What is the date of the document; what is the regiment?

I found the record on Ancestry, but for some reason, it's now not showing as a hint  The regiment is the 90th Foot Soldiers, and the date is about 1816. The column third from right is actually Former Service Corps. The document has a reference number of WO 25/552 page (i think) 20 if that helps.

He enlisted at Lichfield (misspelled as Litchfield by whoever wrote document)
The Staffordshire parish could be "Hamstall" - but whoever was writing didn't know the place or how to write it.  Hamstall is in the Lichfield rural district.

Handsacre is another possibility - a village near to Lichfield.

What is written looks like Hamsane - but I can't see anywhere like that.

Looking forward to seeing other opinions.

Do you have him in the census?

The document has a reference number of WO 25/552 page (i think) 20 if that helps.

For 90th foot, I think the correct reference will be WO 25/522.

Mea Culpa, you are correct. It was late at night, however, when digital dyslexia is at its worst, and I'm not so good a reading sideways fom top to bottom.
