34. John CROSBY

William Crosby's father was John as from his marriage records of 1840.

According to the 1861 census, living at number 3 High Street is John Crosby aged 75 borh Thorpe Ixworth with his wife Sarah aged 73.  This is the same street and next door to William Crosby (Number 79 High Street) and by co-incidence next door to the Baileys (Number 4 High Street) - the family where Frederick, who later married his grand-daughter (Sarah Ann Crosby) lived. This is very likely William's father and mother.

In the 1841 census John is an agricultural labourer.

John Crosby, rate 1/6, admission 24 Feb 1818, residence - Ipswich, died 31 Aug 1871.

In both the 1851 and 1861 census returns John is described in the occupation section as a "Chelsea Pensioner", meaning John Crosby (b1786) was a military veteran. It is understood that John served in the Peninsular Wars. He served for 15 years. John Crosby joined the 48th Regiment of Foot (The Northamptonshire's) under Lord Charles Fitzroy on 21 April 1805 serving 12 years and 309 days and ending up as a Serjeant(sic). He sailed for Sydney with his regiment in 1817.  He is listed as one of the soldiers from the 48th Regiment who served in Australia on garrison duty. He left the army on 23 February 1818 having finished up in hospital in New South Wales. He had what they described as Opaque Cornea of both eyes. He would have fought in many of the famous battles in Spain, at least 6 or 8 and should have been entitled to a medal but it was not granted until about 40 years later and they got his name wrong on the medal roll (Cransby not Crosby).  

His wife was from Sudbury probably where he was stationed for a while and he must have cut quite a dash in his scarlet uniform.  His pension was 1 shilling and 6 pence per week which would have been quite good in those days.
