Does anyone have information on what criterion was applied by the Lloyd's Patriotic Fund when determining whether or not to make a payment to a disabled soldier? I note that only six discharged soldiers of the 2/66th, who had been wounded at Albuera, had received a payment by mid 1815. Many more than that had been discharged as a result of wounds sustained there. Did only six apply, or were very stringent tests applied?

I do not have that level of detail about the fate of the 66th during the charge of the Vistula Legion lancers.
