National ArchivesOutstanding soldiers of the 66th regiment of Foot (1860-1870)
The 66th (The Berkshire) Regiment of Foot fought in the Crimea, then in 1857 was sent to the East Indies. It returned to England in 1865: the regimental depot was at Colchester. In 1867 the regiment was sent to the Channel Islands; 1868 to Ireland; and in 1870 back to the East Indies. Each year just a handful of outstanding soldiers of the regiment were chosen for good conduct medals and gratuities: these are listed here. There were two lists, one for men recommended for the Good Conduct Medal without a gratuity, and one for gratuities - £5 to a private, £10 to a corporal, and £15 to a serjeant. Both lists are indexed here, and each gives rank, name, regimental number, date of recommendation and date of issue. (The sample scan is from the 105th foot)
