The Chinese War; An Account of All the Operations of the British Forces from the Commencement to the Treaty of Nanking


Lt Col in Madras Engineers

Edward Dumaresq Thomas of Abergavenny Esq. married Violet Isabella Elliot Clare Ouchterlony (b.1849) in 1869. She was the daughter of Alice Trevor Ouchterlony of Tredillion Park, Abergavenny, and John Ouchterlony, a soldier in the Madras Engineers.

Pity JOHN OUCHTERLONY. By the time they brought him to the healinghills, it was too late. On April 29, 1863, Lieutenant Colonel Ouchterlony of the Royal Madras Engineers died of "jungle fever brought on by exposure while in the execution of his duty," says a memorial plaque at St. Stephen's Church in Ootacamund, a British colonial town in the Nilgiri Hills of southern India.
