Boulton's Trafalgar Medal 1805, white metal with gilt copper mount. Reverse engraved (Bartholomew Winter, Conqueror). With copied research, a search of the Ships Books for the Trafalgar period (1/6/1805 - 31/12/1805) and (12/05/ - 06/06) shows he joined the ship 1/10/1803 aged 21, his town of origin hard to read Horampton ?? however an online marriage register shows a man of this name from Mirhampton, Somerset, a Mariner. Baptised 8/12/1782 Stockland Bristol, Somerset. Died there June 1827. Most likely the same man.
