This list includes personal information of subscribers to the �Madras Military Fund�, designed in 1808 and closed to new subscribers in 1862, to provide pensions for officers of the Madras Army. It includes the subscribers� names, their descendent beneficiaries and the availability of vital records of death, birth/baptism & marriage. The list extends to about 1150 names. Evidently, therefore, only a proportion of Madras Military Officers are included.
