Classification: Query
Its an impossibility for you relative to have fought under William of Orange and at Waterloo. The Battle of the Boyne was in 1690, Waterloo 1815, unless he was one of those rare 150 year old soldiers you hear of.

Britain as a nation also did'nt exist in 1690. (Act of Union 1707)
