G'day folks, Anyone with an answer, please direct it to "Edward" with a copy to The Raj , of course. Begin forwarded message: From: "edwardplayfair" <edwardplayfair@yahoo.com> Date: 17 March 2008 5:51:06 AM To: SAGongs@yahoogroups.com Subject: [SAGongs] Did Germans (Hanoverians?) serve in the HEIC forces in early 19th century Reply-To: SAGongs@yahoogroups.com I've been doing some research into Dum Dum and the Bengal Artillery in the 1820s and 1830s and have come across a Cooper Sergeant William Zeiter (who enlisted in London) and a Sergeant-Major J. Otto. Neither sound like your average British NCO, but can anyone confirm that Germans (would they be likely to be Hanoverians?) regularly served in the HEIC forces of the late Georgian period?
