Hi All

This is a very interesting one, the article lists the regiments that he was in and the time frame adds up. But I cannot find him on the Medal Roll.

hi all .
I have gone through the medal roll of the 90th Regt and cant find our man .
Also his brother certainly wasnt killed at Rorke's Drift and there wasnt even a Jackson present at R.D according to
J. Whybra's England's Sons .
cheers 90th.

Hi Littlehand

I have checked Hart's Army List for 1875, 76, 77, 78 and 79 and still can not see a Henry Drummond Jackson listed.
