Hello everyone, I have just uploaded a free database of the newly transcribed CRIMEA WAR MEDAL ROLLS for the 17th Regiment of Foot (Leicestershire) to my Military Images web site. the link to Military Images can be found at :- _www.militarybadges.org.uk_ (http://www.militarybadges.org.uk) The database which was transcribed by my wife Annie Capewell contains seven sections which are alphabetically sorted by the Soldiers Surname. The total database contains approx. 2,500 entries and totals almost 8 megabytes of information. Once you have reached the front page of Military Images please scroll down to the Leicester/Leicestershire/Rutland/Leicestershire Regiment section and you will find a link to the Crimea medal rolls there. Also in that section you will find a link to the transcription of the Crimea War casualty lists for the 17th Regiment of Foot. For those who may be new to the military side of family history research, the 17th Regiment of Foot was renamed as the Leicestershire Regiment in 1881 and then the Royal Leicestershire Regiment in 1947. Best wishes and happy hunting from Roger Capewell
