Just wanted to see what else you could find.
There was only one Benjamin West in company E and my papers tell me that Benjamin was on furlough at that time in Glouester and my family tree has Benjamin West and James W West in it so it's him.
BTW all credit belongs to Fredrick for the hospital notes and official corepondance from the AAG J.H.Pearce and Captain Perrin.
