General Notes: In a Document received attached to an e-Mail from Alan Turner in April 2014, he commences his Story of the Bell Family with the following:
George is one of our more famous ancestors, though few will have heard of him. He was appointed by the Duke of York to the ??? in March 1811 at the age of 17 and accompanied Field Marshall Lord Strafford later the same year to the Peninsular (Spain). He served in the Duke of Wellington's Army, without break, until the end of the war in 1814.
George was first engaged in the action of Arroyo-de-Molinos under the command of Lord Hill, capturing the 34th Regiment of French Infantry with their Band and Drums, Prince D'Arimburgh, General Lebrun, 40 officers, 1500 men and all their baggage and artillery. Then at the final siege of Badajoz; capture of Fort Napoleon and bridge at Almaraz on the Tagus; retreat from Burgos and Madrid: the battles of Vittoria, Salamanca, Pyrenees, Pass of Maya and Roncesvales; the actions of the 30th and 31st of July against D'Erlongs' Corps, near Pampeluna; Battles of the Nivelle, Nieve, Bayonne and St Pier where 5000 men were left hors de combat on one square mile of ground. In this engagement he suffered bruising of his head (a bullet through his hat!). He also fought at the battles of Orthes, Tarbes and Toulouse.
In 1825 George was gazetted once more to a regiment of the line through the good offices of the Duke of York. On April 9, he sailed with his wife and only child, Fanny Louisa, to Ceylon aboard the Warren Hastings, a trading ship of the John Company. The personal cost of passage for the family of three with George travelling free was £240. The name of Warren Hastings, the first Governor General of India, also appears in past history as an uncle of the wife of John White an ancestor of my wife Carol. The trip was not without incident there being both a mutiny and a near shipwreck. He spent several years in Ceylon and the East Indies and served in Ava during the Burmese War until its finale. In 1828 he became Captain. On June 19, 1831 he sailed for England on the "Claudine". Within his memoires he records a chance meeting with his brother Thomas on the beach at Madras, India - neither had been aware of the other's presence in that area and they had not seen each other for some seven years!
George was stationed in Canada for seven years with his regiment and was actively involved during the rebellion of 1837-38, particularly in the capture of St Charles and St Eustache. He commanded the fort and garrison of Couteau-du-Lac where he managed to recover 16, 24-pounder guns from the bottom of the St Lawrence River in mid-winter along with 4,000 rounds of shot that had been sunk in the river by the rebels.
George became Lieut. Colonel of the 1st Foot on Dec 5, 1843 and served in Gibraltar as commanding officer.
1852 (2 May) he sailed from London to Crete. In 1853 he had to go to London on election business and was involved in a train crash. He suffered injuries to his bridle hand, which took two years to heal. He visited the ruins at Pompeii in March 1854. In 1854-5 he served with the Allied Army in the Crimea commanding the Royal Regiment in the Battles of the Alma and Inkermann as well as the Siege of Sebastopol where he was wounded and honourably mentioned in the dispatches of Lord Raglan, Commander-in-Chief of the British Army. Lord Raglan appointed him to a Brigade. George witnessed the very well known and disastrous Charge of the Light Brigade.
In 1855 (Oct 23) George was made Colonel of the 104th Foot.
On his return to England he became Inspecting Field Officer at Liverpool until 1859 when he became Major-General. From this time he was never employed and he believed that this was because of a letter he wrote to the Times on 12 December 1854 complaining of the deficiencies of the commissariat during the siege of Sebastopol, and begging assistance from England (see following pages).
1861 saw George return to Canada again where he visited Niagara Falls, Montreal and Quebec. He was able to review places that he had previously visited during the 1837-38 rebellion and this seems to have been primarily a vacation but it was followed by travel into the USA where he set out to review the military activities associated with the Civil War. It seems that he spent about a month here visiting, amongst other places, New York which then had a population of just 400,000, and Washington. The highlight was a visit to the White House about which he wrote;
went upstairs and looked about for a stateroom of reception and someone to hand my card. But no one in the shape of an aide-de-camp or messenger to be seen. After some turnings, I saw a lady and a gentleman standing in a hall looking into a room where several people were assembled. I asked where I could find the president. "Oh, that's he, up there writing at the table, with spectacles." So I advanced, free and easy, as is the United States custom, up to his table, to hear him speak, and look well into his dark features. He wore a common loose, white light duster and a pair of big shoes (easy for corns). He is about six feet in height, stoops, is thin and wiry, with black hair and beard, very kindly, and familiar in his manner to all, but a very common-place looking man."
After some time observing events and commenting on the private conference which he described as an "open court" he continued;
got tired of waiting and now handed him my card, saying that I had called to pay my respects, and wish his cause success. He looked at my card and read, Major-General - George - Bell, - CB., - British - Army. Then stretching out his long arm, and a big claw, gave me a shake with, "how is Old England?"
rdrtrdrsrdrw20rdrcf1 rdrlrdrsrdrw20rdrcf1 rdrbrdrsrdrw20rdrcf1 rdrrrdrsrdrw20rdrcf1
became Colonel of the 32nd Foot in 1867 (February 2) and Colonel of the 1st Foot on 3 August 1868.
For 30 successive years he served in the Royal Regiment, having previously seen much service with the 24th and 45th Regiments.
The various medals and awards he earned included the War Medal with Seven Clasps (Badajoz, Vittoria, the Pyrenees, Nivelle, Nieve, Orthes and Toulouse); the Indian Medal for Ava; the Crimean Medal with Three Clasps (Alma, Inkermann, Sebastopol); the Turkish Medal; Companion of the Bath; the Legion d'Honneur; the Imperial Order of the Medjidie from the Sultan: and finally the honour of a K.C.B. (Knight Commander of the Most Honourable Order of the Bath) from the Queen on March 13 1867.
As Colonel and Inspecting Officer in the Northern District he recruited some 20,000 men for the Army.
George became Colonel-in-Chief of the 1st Regiment of the Line or "Royal Scots".
His appointment to the rank of General was March 8, 1873.
George published a two volume book of memoirs "Rough Notes of an Old Soldier" in 1867. This work was later arranged and edited by Brian Stuart and published as a single volume by G Bell and Sons in 1956 with the title "Soldiers Glory".
The publisher released the last of the normally

retained "publishers copies" to members of the family and several others were obtained from various sources. The full story, even though largely in diary format, is most fascinating and well worth a read. Several copies appeared to be available on the Internet at the time of my writing up this part of the history and .pdf version of his original memoires is available on the Internet through Google.
George Bell died on July 10, 1877 at 156 Westbourne Terrace, London and is buried at Kensal Green Cemetery.

General Notes: In a Document received from Patrick de Meulemeester in March 2021, he included the following:
Here is what Thomas Ignatius Forster wrote about his father and the origins of his family in his book 'Book of My Life, My Books and My Thoughts: Philosophical Opuscule'
My father, Thomas Furly Forster, was a gentleman of a very old family from Normandy, a family that had long lived near the borders of Scotland.
My ancestors, the Forsters of Bamborough, Northumberland, received their weapons in the famous battles of Cressy(Crecy) and Azincourt (Agincourt).
But having distinguished themselves in the civil war of 1715, as supporters of the Catholic dynasty of the STUARTS, they were stripped of their estates.
As supporters, it was mainly General Thomas Forster (1638-1738) who rallied the cause of this rebellion and this caused him to lose all his rights and properties which he had to cede to his brother John FORSTER.
AND, in a Document received from Patrick de Meulemeester in June 2021, he stated that,
Sir Thomas was one of the first members of the LINNEAN Society and with his brother Benjamin Meggot Forster, he joined the 'Anti-Slavery Society' in 1823.
He had following botanists as friends, Sir James Edward Smith, Sir Joseph Banks, Jonas Dryander, James Dickson, Robert Brown and Adam Afzelius.
Wikipedia says of this Thomas,
Thomas Furly Forster (1761\endash 1825) was an English botanist.
He was born in Bond Street, Walbrook, on 5 September 1761, the eldest son of Edward Forster the Elder and his wife Susanna Furney.[1] His father retired to Walthamstow in 1764, and, being an admirer of Jean-Jacques Rousseau, brought up his son on his principles. From his uncle Benjamin Forster he acquired a taste for antiquities, coins, prints, and plants. He was introduced to the Linnean system of classification by the Rev. John Dixon, and was further encouraged in his studies by Joseph Cockfield of Upton, Michael Tyson, Sir John Cullum, and Richard Warner, author of the Plantζ Woodfordienses (1771).[2]
Forster was one of the first fellows of the Linnean Society, and he visited Tunbridge Wells annually. From 1796 to 1823 he mainly resided at Clapton, and, as he had grown hardy plants in his home at Walthamstow, then devoted himself to greenhouse exotics, giving assistance to the Loddiges family in establishing their nursery in Hackney.[2]
In 1823 Forster, with his brother Benjamin, joined the committee of the Anti-Slavery Society.[3] That year he moved to Walthamstow on the death of his mother, and died there 28 October 1825. He was a member of many scientific and philanthropic societies, and among his friends were Richard Porson and Richard Gough, as well as botanists: Sir James Edward Smith, Sir Joseph Banks, Jonas Dryander, James Dickson, Robert Brown, and Adam Afzelius.[2]
He has been honoured in the name of Sedum fosterianum, which was first published by Sir James Edward Smith in English Botany (Engl. bot.) Vol.26 on table 1802 in 1808.

General Notes: The Forster family
During the 19th century, the Forster family were the major landowners in the area. They lived at Southend Hall, which was located just south of the junction of Whitefoot Lane and Bromley Road. The parkland attached to the hall stretched away eastwards and was divided by Whitefoot Lane. The larger part lay to the south of the lane, whilst the smaller part to the north was divided into two. The eastern section was surrounded by thick belts of trees, except alongside Whitefoot Lane. In 1919 Mr W H Forster made a gift to the Metropolitan Borough of Lewisham of this part of his estate to become a public park and commemorate his two sons Alfred and John, both lost in the First World War. Mr Forster (MP for Bromley and later Lord Forster) went on to become Governor-General of Australia from 1920 to 1925. The park, gratefully received by the Council as much-needed open space for the new estates being built in the area at that time, was opened to the public in Lord Forster's absence by his daughter, the Hon. Mrs Lubbock, in 1922. The park was almost doubled in size to the north in 1937, following a deal between the Forster Estate Company and the London County Council.
