ANDERSON, JOSEPH (1790-1877), soldier, was born on 1 July 1790 at Keoldale, Sutherland, Scotland, the son of James Anderson of Rispond. He became an ensign at 15, and continued in the army for forty-three years, serving with the 78th, 24th and 50th Regiments. He took part in the battle of Maida in Italy, 1806, under Colonel Acland; in the expedition to Egypt, 1807; and in the Peninsular war, April 1809 to January 1812, at the battle of Talavera (where he was wounded), in the lines of Torres Vedras, and in the battles of Busaco and Fuentes de Onoro. In 1813 he was a captain and brigade major in the York Chasseurs in the West Indies and was present at the recapture of Guadeloupe in 1815. In 1821 he was appointed captain in the 50th Regiment, and promoted major in 1826.
