to join the Army in the UK mid 19th Century?
Between 1848-49 the 1st year of service is listed as 'Under Age' and has not been counted towards pay and pension ... (I'm trying to ascertain year of birth, which seems to vary throughout census info)
Service towards pay and pension starts from 1849 and continues throughout service.
Can anyone please explain this?
