This Blogpost provides a detailed overview of Andrew Munro's life & military
service in India during the mid-19th century.
Military Service in India
Andrew
Munro served a distinguished military career in India from 1848 to 1868,
initially enlisting in the East India Company’s Bombay Artillery as a Gunner.
Over two decades, he rose through the ranks to become a Brigade Quartermaster
Sergeant.
1. Early Service (1848-1854):
Enlisted as a European soldier in the 3rd
Company of the 1st Battalion of Artillery under the Honourable East India
Company (HEIC), serving in the Army of the Bombay Presidency. He was stationed at Ahmednagar (historically spelled Ahmednuggur), a prominent British
military outpost in the region. [i]
During his service as an enlisted
soldier, he steadily progressed through the following ranks:
·
1848-1852:
Gunner[ii][iii]
·
1853: Promoted to Bombardier[iv][v]
·
1854:
Promoted to Corporal[vi][vii]
2.
Progression to Non-Commissioned Officer (1855-1860):
In 1855, Andrew Munro was elevated to the rank
of European Non-Commissioned Officer (NCO) and transferred to the “Non-Effect
List” (N.E.L.) within the HEIC’s Army of the Bombay Presidency. [viii][ix]
The N.E.L. recorded personnel no
longer serving in active regiments but retained for roles such as
administration or logistics. By transferring to this list, Munro shifted from
regimental duties to a support role, often within the Ordnance Department.
Career Highlights as an NCO:
·
1855:
Retained the Rank of Corporal,[x]
and appointed Acting Laboratory Man in the ordinance Department.[xi]
This role involved in the preparation, testing,
and maintenance of ammunition, explosives, and other ordnance materials, ensuring
the safety, reliability, and functionality of ordnance used by the military.
·
Dec 1856 & Feb 1857: he was
in active service in Persia.[xii] During this time he was promoted to Acting Store with rank
of Corporal.[xiii]
Munro’s role likely involved supporting various
operational theatres of the campaign, including Bushehr, Mohammerah, and
adjacent areas. While not directly participating in all engagements, he played
a critical logistical role.1857: Promoted to Store with the rank of Corporal, serving as a Clerk[xiv]
Later promoted to Acting Store with the rank of Sergeant.[xv]
The Indian Rebellion
and Structural Changes:
The Indian Rebellion of
1857 brought significant changes to British colonial administration. Following
the rebellion, the East India Company’s forces were dissolved, and control was
transferred to the British Crown. This transition included the integration of
artillery regiments into the British Army.[xvi][xvii]
“On 1 November 1858 the East India Company ceased to exist and many of its
original regiments also disappeared. Those that remained were transferred to
the Government of India and in 1861 many of these were merged with the British
Army.”[xviii]
Further Promotions:
·
1858:
Promoted to Laboratory Sergeant.[xix]
·
1859:
Returned to active regimental service, retaining the Rank of Sergeant.[xx]
·
1860:
Appointed as a Sub-Conductor in the Ordnance Department.[xxi]
3.
Transition to the British Army (1861-1868):
In 1861, Andrew volunteered to join the Royal
Artillery’s 21st Brigade in the Royal British Army.[xxii]
This transition followed the integration of the Honourable East India Company’s
forces into the British Army after the Indian Rebellion of 1857 and the
subsequent dissolution of the Company’s military command.
Service in the Royal
Artillery: 1861 to 1868
:
·
Served
as Brigade Quartermaster Sergeant in the 21st Brigade of the Royal Artillery.[xxiii][xxiv][xxv][xxvi][xxvii][xxviii]
4. Retirement
1868: In 1868, Munro retired from the military under
Indian Pension Rules.[xxix]
This designation indicates that he was granted a pension aligned with the
regulations governing military personnel who served in British India.
Family Life
In 1856,
after transferring to the Non-Effect List and advancing to the rank of
Non-Commissioned Officer (NCO),[xxx] Andrew Munro married Isabella
Jennings, the 17-year-old daughter of George Jennings, at St. Andrew’s Church
in Bombay.[xxxi]
Over the next twelve years, Andrew and
Isabella welcomed eight children while stationed across various military
cantonments in India, reflecting Andrew’s postings and career advancements. The

Residences in India
Andrew Munro’s life in India was shaped by his military
career, which dictated his movements across key British cantonments starting in
Ahmednagar. After marrying Isabella in 1856, the couple settled in Kalbadevi,
Bombay, where they began their family. Subsequent relocations to Ahmednagar,
Kirkee, and Mhow reflect Andrew’s career progression from clerk to
Sub-Conductor and ultimately to Quartermaster Sergeant in the Royal Artillery. Following
his retirement in 1868, Andrew briefly settled in Bombay before emigrating to
Australia the following year.
·
Ahmednagar (1848-1846):
Before getting married Andrew was stationed in Ahmednuggur.[xli] As an unmarried man he was likely
living in the military cantonment of Ahmednuggur, the administrative and
residential hub for European and Indian troops.
·
Kalbadevi, Bombay (1857-1860):
During this time, Andrew and
Isabella began their family, residing in Kalbadevi, a bustling commercial and
residential area of Bombay.[xlii][xliii]
As a clerk in the military, Andrew likely lived in accommodations provided for
colonial officials, relatively comfortable compared to local standards.
·
Ahmednagar (1860):
By 1860, he family moved to
Ahmednagar, where Andrew became a Sub-Conductor[xliv]
in the Ordnance Department. Ahmednagar was a key British cantonment, serving as
a logistical hub for the western India military operations.
·
Kirkee, Bombay Presidency (1861):
In late 1861, the family
relocated to Kirkee (modern-day Khadki), near Pune, a major military station
with an ordnance depot and artillery units.[xlv]
Kirkee’s strategic importance made it a
focal point for regional British military operations.
·
Mhow (1863-1868):
By 1863, Andrew was stationed in
Mhow,[xlvi][xlvii][xlviii][xlix]
a prominent British military cantonment in Central India. Serving as a
Quartermaster Sergeant in the Royal Artillery’s 21st Brigade, Andrew managed
supplies for a large garrison in this strategically vital region.

Following his retirement in 1868,
Andrew opted to settle in Bombay. He emigrated to Australia the following year,
for reasons not yet identified.
