Armed Forces / 1810 Spain

Hi there,
I am just looking for some general advice on one of my ancestors. WILLIAM BROWN and his wife BRIDGET ELLIOTT were living on a Spanish army base when their daughter CATHERINE BROWN was born in 1810. I think they were from the Edinburgh area originally. Would anyone know why he would have been based there at that time? I have no records of him returning back to the UK so is there any sites where I could check Military deaths abroad? I dont even know which regiment etc he was with.
Thanks
Craig
