this is a pic of the medal that's my ancestor received
0 -
In our family, we also have a Crimea medal belonging to a ancestor of ours, that fought at the Siege of Savastapol, but his name unfortunately isn't inscribed on the medal. I also have a number of Naval documents pertaining to this man, that I,m trying to get translated from the old French language, with added military lingo from that time period. The one i'm most anxious to have transcribed is the personal papers of this man. It lists the ships he sail on, something pertaining to Sevastapol along with other events that made up the life of this man, up until the time he came to Newfoundland, Canada and, as they, jumped ship in 1857. Amy help in my quest would be appreciated.
