73rd Foot (Blackwatch) c1800's
Afternoon all.
I have just been given Form of Justice's Certificate (parchment) dated (looks like) Twenty third June 1808 (look like eight but could be +/- four years) age 19 was 5 foot 10, fair skin, gray eyes, brown hair enlisted at Dover for seven years for a 10 guineas bounty and received 5 guineas on being attested.
His name is Robert Webster also say that the regiment was commanded by Lieut Gen Geo Harry's (so may deffinately help with date).
Typed note say's he fought at Waterloo, can anyone confirm if this is true.
Thanks for any help.
Jonathan
