Outstanding soldiers of the Prince of Wales' Own (West Yorkshire Regiment)
(1881-1901) Each year the best soldiers of the regiment were chosen for long service and good conduct medals. This register gives rank, name, regimental number, and date of recommendation. (The sample scan is from the East Surrey regiment). The register is essentially a register of recommendations, annotated with details of the issue of the medals. Where no gratuity accompanied the medal, the entry is marked 'W. G.' (without gratuity); where, for one reason or another, the medal was not issued, the entry is marked 'N. S.' (not sanctioned) and struck through. The regiment was based on the 14th Regimental District - York. The 1st battalion returned from India in 1879, was transferred to Ireland in 1883, and in 1885 was at Galway. In 1891 the battalion returned to England, embarking for Gibraltar 8 January 1895. In 1896 it moved on to Hong Kong, and in 1897 to India. The 2nd battalion embarked for Bengal in 1878, and in 1885 was at Sealkote. It was transferred to Aden in 1894, and from there to Cape Coast Castle in 1895, returning to England the following year. The troops were sent out to South Africa in 1899, adding "South Africa, 1899-1902" and "Relief of Ladysmith" to the regimental honours.ISTEAD. Cost: £8.00.  | Sample scan, click to enlarge
