Hi my Gt GT grandfather Patrick John Collins, signed up to the
English army 1840 does anyone know where I can get this list or more info about this.
A researcher told me about it, but being new to genealogy back in 1980 I did not record the source.
Hoping you can help Thanks Fay Purves
Hi Fay:
thanks for your email. I'm a volunteer in Tulla and I can pass your question to a Clarecastle historian. In the meantime, you can check out the Clare Library website at this link: www. Clare library.ie and if you have access to FindMyPast, that is worth looking at. If he returned to Ireland after his army service, he would have been referred to as an Army pensioner. If you have any questions, you can email me at: tulla@irelandxo.com.
All the best,
Jane
