National ArchivesOutstanding soldiers of the Prince of Wales' (North Staffordshire Regiment) (1881-1901)
Each year the best soldiers of the regiment were chosen for long service and good conduct medals. This register gives rank, name, regimental number, and date of recommendation. (The sample scan is from the East Surrey regiment). The register is essentially a register of recommendations, annotated with details of the issue of the medals. Where no gratuity accompanied the medal, the entry is marked 'W. G.' (without gratuity); where, for one reason or another, the medal was not issued, the entry is marked 'N. S.' (not sanctioned) and struck through. The regiment was based on the 64th Regimental District - Lichfield. The 1st battalion was transferred from the Channel Islands to Ireland in 1879; and from Ireland to England in 1883. In 1884 it embarked for the West Indies; in 1886 was sent from there to South Africa; in 1891 from South Africa to Mauritius; and in 1892 from Mauritius to Malta. In 1895 the battalion was moved to Egypt, taking part in the Dongola Expeditionary Force of 1896; and in 1897 to India. The 2nd battalion was serving in India in 1881, based at Quetta by 1885, and returned to England via Aden 30 March 1888. Having been moved to Ireland in 1893, it was sent to South Africa in 1900, and added "South Africa, 1900-1902" to the regimental honours.
