Colonel Richard St Leger

[Robyn]

Can anyone please give me an idea where to look for military information on Colonel Richard St Leger b.1756 in Doneraile, Cork, Ireland d.1840 in Dublin? I've done a Google search and nothing is coming up for his military career. Thank you Robyn.

Hi

You could try searching on https://www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk/ to see where his name comes up, and then follow it up on https://www.thegazette.co.uk/

I found this: https://www.thegazette.co.uk/London/issue/12082/page/3 which shows he was in 68th Foot Regiment. And promoted again https://www.thegazette.co.uk/London/issue/12294/page/4

And maybe moved to 2nd Horse Regiment? https://www.thegazette.co.uk/London/iss ... 4/page/486

The National Archives might have some records, once you know where to look
