Orders, Decorations, Medals and Militaria

Military General Service 1793-1814, 1 clasp, Chrystler’s Farm (Ovills Jacques. Canadian Militia.) toned, very fine £1,600-£2,000

Ovills Jacques has not been found on any of the published rolls. The naming is officially impressed but note ‘Canadian’ in full rather than the correct abbreviation ‘Canadn.’ Graham Neale of Ottawa expressed an opinion in October 1982 that it ‘could conceivably be a late-issue’.
