Ensign Ewart - The Man and the Pub
Posted by: R. G. Ewart Date: September 26, 1999 at 14:44:39
  of 741

In Edinburg there is a famous landmark known as the Ensign Ewart Pub. It honours a man who captured the eagle (battle standard) of a French regiment during the Battle of Waterloo. He was immediately given a field promotion from a sergent to an ensign. Does anyone have any connections with this man, or is able to provide more information?

R. G. Ewart (in the Great White North)
