JoNewell; succession books (regimental) 20th foot, Page 49. I am having trouble working out where all the soldiers reenlisted for unlimited service (In Period of Service column). Can anyone tell me what place this is?
Might it be Templemore in County Tipperary? There's a history of the 20th here: https://archive.org/details/cihm_48351/page/n93/mode/2up?view=theater (pp 48-49) which says the 20th arrived in Cork in July 1814 after the end of the Napoleonic Wars, then marched to Templemore in May 1815, staying there until Spring 1816. Interestingly, three years later the 20th was deployed to St Helena to guard Napoleon Bonaparte in exile, so I wonder whether some of these men actually saw or met him?
Jo; Thats great Kevin04 I'm pretty sure you are right. I can see it now. On the second page it often says that the soldiers did go to St Helena. I did wonder myself if any of them saw Napoleon. Great work! Thanks.
JoNewell. Soldier 10 is from Cheshire, parish 'Werbury'. There is a Wrenbury? could be there.
Soldier 7: PoB nowadays spelt Greasley.
