Well I guess I opened a real discussion (or big mess) here!
But its nice to see so many responses!
I have had a look at the charts given above & come to the conclusion that Sergeants {ie: QM Serg't, OR Serg't, St Serg't, Colour Serg't, Troop Serg't etc} wore three chevrons point down, with some kind of device above, on the sleeve.
& Quarter Master Serg'ts wore 4 inverted chevrons (point upwards) on the lower sleeve with the specialty device above.
But none of the references have mentioned (Victorian) Army Pay Corps!
I guess sit was a fairly small unit?
