    3. Finally, I might be able to return the favour for the times you have helped me over the years, Josephine! I have only found two men named Thomas HAYMAN who were Chelsea Pensioners and only one who was pensioned by 1832, the time of the trial. Thomas HAYMAN born in Northerin[?], Hanover [according to the pensioner papers] joined the York Rangers in 1792. He was pensioned in 1804 after losing a leg in Saint Domingo. Although the papers do not give his address at the time, the word 'Bristol' is handwritten on the top. I can send you scans of the papers as attachments if you new PC is up to receiving such. They contain a description of Thomas. Kind regards, Jenny W [Brisbane] - who also has a Chelsea Pensioner as her ancestor - copy to list
