James Cole b.1791 (Ruardean) married to Hannah Morgan b.1793 (Ruardean).They had 14 children. On the 1851 census it states that James is a Chelsea Pensioner. Does anyone know anything about his military career.
No but he would have been serving around the time of the Napoleonic Wars circa 1811
Wellington's best known battle and
resulted in the final defeat of Napoleon and
peace in Europe for 99 years, shaped
modern Europe

towards the true object of all battles – the
peace of the world.' Duke of Wellington
