Outstanding soldiers of the 91st regiment of Foot
(1860-1870) The 91st (The Argyllshire) Regiment of Foot left the Ionian Islands for India in 1858. It returned to England in 1868: the regimental depot was at Chatham. 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)GREAR.
