North Staffordshire Regt. 2/6th Battalion TF – formed in 1914, moved to Ireland in 1916 where it was involved in the Easter Rising, served in France 1917–1918. Merged with 1/6th Battalion in July 1918.

The North Staffordshire Regiment (Prince of Wales's)
The Black Knots

The North Staffordshire Regiment (Prince of Wales's) was an infantry regiment of the British Army, which was in existence between 1881 and 1959. It can date its lineage back to 1756 with the formation of a second battalion by the 11th Regiment of Foot, which shortly after became the 64th (2nd Staffordshire) Regiment of Foot. In 1881, the 64th Foot was merged with the 98th (Prince of Wales's) Regiment of Foot (originally raised in 1824) to form the new regiment.
Formed at a time when the British Empire was reaching its peak, the Regiment served all over the Empire, in times of both peace and war, and in many theatres of war outside the Empire. It fought in World War I and World War II, as well as in other smaller conflicts around the world. These other wars included the Second Sudanese War, the Second Boer War, the Anglo-Irish War and the Third Anglo-Afghan War.

1837-1915 Birth index



1901 Census

Because 1901 Census indicates him as a brewer and hes second name is not common in UK at all, I am pretty sure he was part of the Ind's family, who have Ind, Coope & Co Brewers, what was founded in Romford, Essex, England. In 1799 Edward Ind acquired the Star Brewery, that was founded by George Cardon in 1709 at Romford. In 1845 Octavius Edward Coope and George Coope joined Edward Ind and the company was known as Ind Coope. They opened a brewery in Burton-on-Trent in 1856.

Ind Coope merged with Samuel Allsopp & Sons in 1934, then with Ansells and Tetley Walker in 1961 to form Allied Breweries.
