A good friend has asked me for some help in identifying the medals and period of this photo of his great grand-father (he of the medals).
He is surrounded by his family.
It's hard to see what they are and two of them are covered with campaign/battle clasps.
It is thought that he served in India and in the Crimea.
All knowledge and guesses appreciated!
