Book excerpt: Excerpt from Recollections of a Life in the British Army: During the Latter Half of the 19th Century My grandfather, Matthew, tenth child of Benjamin, was born in 1778. He married Maria, daughter of Colonel Alexander Patterson, of Montreal, Canada, who was killed by the poisoned arrow of an Indian in the American War of Independence, whilst defending the frontier close to his own property at Montreal. Matthew Harrison joined the London and Westminster Light Horse in 1794 and be came a captain in 1799. He was one of the Lieutenancy of the City of London, J. P. For the county of Surrey, Governor of the South Sea House, of Guy's and St. Thomas's Hospitals, and Chairman of the Albion Life Insurance Office. For many years he lived at Croydon, but towards the end of his life he moved to London, where I used to see him on my way to and from school. He died in December 1850, aged 77, and my grandmother died seven years afterwards, aged 83. My father, Benjamin John, sixth child of Matthew and Maria Harrison, was born in 1803. He was educated at Westminster, and from there obtained a Studentship at Christ Church, Oxford. Among his friends at that College were his cousin Benjamin, who became Arch deacon of Maidstone, and William Ewart Gladstone, who became Prime Minister of England. Not many years ago - I think it was in 1888 - that distinguished statesman was Opening a new Medical College at Guy's Hospital, and while luncheon was proceeding he asked the Treasurer, Mr. Lushington, who was sitting next him, who I was. When told he bent forward and asked me my father's Christian name and what happened to him. On hearing that it was Benjamin, and that he had taken orders, he said But there were two Benjamin Harrisons, ' About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Durnford 1879 from Isandlwana to Chatham written by Kristine Herron and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2019-08-15 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It has been 140 years since the Battle of Isandhlwana, on 22nd January 1879, when up to 20,000 Zulu Warriors, attacked Regiments of Queen Victoria's Army, killing them all. A career soldier with the Royal Engineers, Colonel Anthony William Durnford was blamed for the disaster by General Chelmsford. He became the General's scapegoat. Much has been written about him over the years, but little has been written of the events peculiar to his life. It takes family to understand their ancestor's characteristics, strengths, weaknesses, qualities, traits and behaviours. His brother wrote a memoir "A Soldier's Life and work in South Africa" 1872 - 1879, which included research to disprove the General's claims. Edward was to write an update in 1886, but didn't, as he was pressured. Anthony Durnford had two families, his ancestral one, which we share, and his military one. Both had one thing in common, to prove that he did "follow orders". His brother investigated and in, 1882 published his findings. The Royal Engineers also investigated and amassed a huge file of evidence, never before seen by the public. The Royal Engineers Evidence file, comprising over 300 pages of fact, has lain hidden from public view, in the drawers of the Royal Engineers Library since 1932. It rebukes much "confirmation bias" of currently held perceptions. This file has been fully transcribed, placed in logical context, and additional research included from the Royal Archives, the National Army Museum and archives in South Africa. "Durnford 1879" comprises 2 volumes and is an extension of Colonel Edward Durnford's research. It could perhaps be described as a Military Mystery, created as a result of Genealogical research and Military History colliding. A story which would not be told, had it been for a series of "mistakes".
