Hello List David said: Could someone also point me in the direction of finding whether the Madras Artillery saw active service between 1814 and 1860? I am interested as to whether the unit was involved in the Mutiny because another ancestor makes reference to a Madras Exhibition in 1857, the same year as the uprising. The FIBIS Fibiwiki page "Madras Artillery" http://wiki.fibis.org/index.php?title=Madras_Artillery gives details of Volume 2 of History of the Services of the Madras Artillery, covering the period 1810-1852, available at the British Library. Unfortunately only Volume 1, for the period to 1810, is available online. Also details are given of a book The History of the Royal and Indian Artillery in the Mutiny of 1857 available at the British Library, or which may be purchased. Cheers Maureen (Sydney)
