Abraham Noster 

Notes:

a) BIOGRAPHY:Notes from Wikipedia re HMS Surly :-nOn 20 April 1810 the boats of Firm, Surly, and Sharpshooter, under the command of Lieutenant Hodgkins of Firm, and Mr Lagaw, 2nd Master of Sharpshooter, cut out the French privateer cutter Alcide from the mouth of the Pirou River, where she had taken refuge after the British vessels had chased her. Alcide was moored under the protection of 400 troops on shore, who kept up an incessant fire while the boarding party carried her. Alcide had thrown her four 4-pounder guns overboard during the chase to lighten her. One man was killed and another wounded, both from Firm.[12] In 1847 the Admiralty awarded the Naval General Service Medal with the clasps "Firm 24 April 1810" and "Surly 24 April 1810", to all survivors of the action. nnOCCUPATION: 1815 Seamann1825 Mariner - Harwichn1829 Mariner - Harwichn1839 Norster Abraham, Dover Court - listed in Boot and Shoe Makers - Pigot's Directory Essex 1839n1839 Norster Abraham, Dover Court - listed in Academies and Schools - Pigot's Directory Essex 1839n1841 (C) Pensionern1848 Sailorn1848 Appointed to post officen1851 (C) Greenwich Pensionernn1841-Census: HO107/344/18 page 7nDovercourtnAbraham Noster 55 Not born in Essex.
