Winchester College was founded in the fourteenth century by William of Wykeham, Bishop of Winchester and Chancellor to Richard II, and the first seventy poor scholars entered the school in 1394.

In 1775 at the age of 20 he and his younger brother William Jean Raymond left for Pondicherry, India. The idea as he told his father, was to set up a merchant shop. Instead, he turned to the more exciting career of being a soldier. He first served under French General Bussy, but it was in 1786 that Michel joined the service of the ruling Nizam of Hyderabad. He began as any other soldier, shortly after he was given 300 soldiers to command. In 1796, Raymond was appointed Amin Jinsi or Comptroller of Ordnance. He established sever ...
