Biography

Cyrile was born in 1852. He was the son of Daniel Tallman and Delia Stringer. He passed away in 1919.

He was a medal recipient for his part in putting down the raid by the Fenians on 25 May 1870. ^[1] The medals were first issued in 1899, but some were sent as late as 1902. The transcription provides the name, year and regiment, and mailing address of where the Canadian Government sent the medal. The Reference Number provided refers to the Medal Register volume and page number where information was extracted. (Note: Perigo Mills should read Perry Mills).

The Canadians, acting on information supplied by Thomas Miller Beach, were able to wait for and turn back the attack at Eccles Hill with the help of reinforcements from Hemmingford and the 51st Battalion known as, the Hemmingford Rangers. ^[2] The Battle of Trout River was a military conflict that occurred on 27 May 1870. It was a part of the Fenian raids. This battle occurred outside of Huntingdon, Quebec near the international border about 12 miles north of Malone, New York. ^[3] As a native of Hemmingford what must he have felt in defending his country from this small invasion force?
