Hello Mr Cornwell,
First I want to say how much I have enjoyed your books.
I was recently in Quebec traveling with a friend. We stopped at a graveyard that he had members in. The first headstone that we across as we walked into the graveyard had the following inscription on it.
” John Baxter….?1790-1870? …Infantry man 21 years in the English Army, recd 2 medals in the Battle of Corunna 1809 Spanish Pen War”
I have a picture of headstone.
I was really surprised to see this headstone and thought it might be some interest to you.
Have a great day
Tim Rowe.
