Talk:Battle of Tigree
Comment on Battle Location
Tigree is said to be near Jounpore. Have not found any reference to place or battle in 1858. There are accounts of Col Longden in the area with a Gurkha force at the time. Coordinates are for Jaunpur.--Sy 02:45, 26 July 2008 (PDT)
Have added some details - force would appear to be that of General Lugard --Lee 08:44, 31 January 2011 (UTC)
