Armed Forces / Census in the army
« on: Friday 12 February 10 16:23 GMT (UK) »
Did the army take census' when stationed abroad? Excuse my ignorance.
I'm trying to find Private 1783 James Logan in the 1851 census & again as a Sergeant in the 1861 census.
He was with the 92nd Gordon Highlanders. According to a history of the regiment that I found on-line, they left Ireland on 5/3/1951 for the Ionian Islands. They were in India until 1863.
James was born in 1825 in Govan, Renfrewshire.
Any help would be appreciated.
