Hugh Wallace, Marshal of Jamaica?
Hi there,
I received some information today from a relative that suggested that my g-g-g-grandfather, Hugh Wallace, was at one time "Marshal of Jamaica".Hugh died in Australia (Victoria) in 1853, and I think he was born in England (Knutsford?) around 1794.
Does anyone whether the position of "Marshal of Jamaica" ever existed, and what it may have involved.Was it a regimental position perhaps?Even better, does anyone have any information on a Hugh Wallace ever being in this position in the period approx 1825-1850?
Thanks
Steve G.
