Notes:

d.Mar 14, 1873

note from Bob Moore, 2018:

farmer, served with 15th Hussars,? pensioned 1834

so I went on RAoGK (Random Acts of Genealogical Kindness) today and asked for help from someone in the group who had access to LDS 0101325.

It seems no one did but they did find the document to which LDS 0101325 refers and some other documents.

The military record is close to what we already had.

When you check place of birth, it gives Leeds in England which makes him sound like an Englishman. However, he was being assessed at "The Royal Hospital Kilmainham, located in Dublin, Ireland, was founded in 1679 and handled the pensions of Irish Regiments (as well as some English, Scottish, and Welsh units, though most pensions for non-Irish regiments were handled by the Royal Hospital Chelsea in London)." (source Fold3). Maybe his father was in the military and stationed in England when he was born ?

The birth date in the military records do not line up with the birth date in the death certificate.

A puzzle !
