We can post links to familysearch (free) though 

As long as they have an account! From today, a few days late, not logged in, no see.

I noticed it was taking me straight to the log in page John and did not have the reminder banner

Did you find this on ancestry?

Yes

Mothers maiden name on GRO index are given at GRO website
https://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/Login.asp

There is currently a PDF trial running which means you can get some records at £6 instead of £9.25.  The information is the same as that printed on to certificates.
This index is also giving ages at death for early records

Fantastic, thanks, have ordered.  I already had an account with GRO but always did my searching on freebmd first, which didn't list the mmn until the later years, unless I was doing something wrong.

There is a Service record for a John Joseph Bowman (mother Sophia, living in Holloway) who deserted 10 May 1896 from Landguard Fort. It would appear that he was not of good character as there are a number of offences on his charge sheet.

There is no mention on the Service record of a marriage to Elizabeth Rebecca Deamer

Well that's interesting.  Would make sense why she remarried.....  Thank you.  Did you find this on ancestry?

Perhaps he had not got permission to marry from the Army 

His attestation is on Ancestry & FindMyPast

Yes I will.  I already have accounts with Ancestry and Findmypast, what's another one.......

Thank you.  I clearly need to fine tune my searching skills.

Sorry, I thought John was implying that it was too late or something similar.
