Hi I am trying to find out more about a Colonel Thomas McDermott ( sometimes spelt Macdermott ) . He served in the Irish Brigade in France and later the Catholic Irish Brigade of the British Army with the rank of Lieu Col , he appears in the Royal Calender of 1801 where he is marked as Colonel and he is on the half pay list of 1805 again as Colonel, I found him as POW in france in 1806 and he died there in 1809 ,
His prison record states he was a colonel of the 96th and I am wondering if anyone had come across him before ?
I would like to know more about his war service and how he was captured and also where he is buried ?
Any ideas or suggestions welcome.
