the site THE SHIPS LIST has travellers for Canada as early as 1803 onwards worth a look I think .

« on: Friday 25 May 18 10:53 BST (UK) »
hi sue
in the find a grave site they have a plan of bishopwearmouth cemetery theres a 13a and a 13a e as well as a 10a and 10a e and an 11a and an 11a e also 12a but cant see a 12a e i,m just wondering if the E stands for extension as one section filled up another directly next to it was opened as the plan shows .
hope this makes sense
.
regards trevor

have you seen the christening record for a job demaine 30 aug 1779 in thornthwaite yorks is this probably him ? , also like you I,ve looked about for an emigration record but cant find one , thing to remember is that back in the early days most folk sailed to canada then went overland to the usa a good site for early records is THE SHIPS LIST they have quite a few listings but the only demaine I could find was for a B demaine IN 1831 .
sorry i cant be more helpful .

just found the john Wilkinson army no 3552 in world wide army index in 1851 he was in malta and 1861 Kowloon china , unless he had a benefactor I doubt as a private he would have been able to purchase a commission at approx. £1800 pounds .

FindMyPast only has the b a worldwide index for him so presumably he didn't do enough time to receive a pension in which case his service record would have been destroyed approx. 20yrs after leaving the army .

ps as far as I know what you see on worldwide index is all there is to see
