Tighe | Vincent John | | Lieutenant | TIGHE, VINCENT JOHN (AUGUSTINE), Lieutenant, was born 13 August 1863, son of Major M J Tighe (70th East Surrey Regiment). Gazetted to West Riding Regiment as Second Lieutenant 7 February 1894; was on Special Extra Regimental Employment 24 October 1896 to 19 September 1899, serving under the Royal Niger Company in the expeditions to Egbon, Bida and Ilorin (Medal with clasp). He was transferred to the West India Regt, as Lieutenant 12 January 1898; and took part in the operations in the Niger Territories, including Benin Hinterland and Siama Expeditions (wounded). He was mentioned in Despatches [London Gazette, 30 May 1899], and was created a Companion of the Distinguished Service Order [London Gazette, 30 June 1899]: "Vincent John Tighe, Lieutenant, West India Regiment. In recognition of services during the recent operations in West Africa". The Insignia were presented by the Queen. The London Gazette of 30 June 1899, gave Lieutenant Tighe's name incorrectly, and it was later announced that his second name was "Augustine, according to his baptismal certificate". He became Captain 22 September 1900. Captain Tighe again saw active service in West Africa in 1900, taking part in the operations in Ashanti, and being present at the Relief of Kumasi. He was slightly wounded. He retired on 13 August 1908 (late West India Regiment and Manchester Regiment). He married, in 1906, Angela Lucy, fourth daughter of Osmond Seager, and they had four daughters. Major Tighe died 7 June 1919.
