1901 Census

[Phil Robbins]

Does anyone know if the 1901 census included anyone in the armed forces stationed abroad at time of census.
I have been unable to find my grandfather in the census. I know he was in the army at some point but I don't know when. He would have been 19 in 1901.  The only thing I can think of is that he was overseas when the census was taken.
Thanks
Phil.

If he joined a local regiment it may possibly have been the Ox and Bucks light infantry

The  link below gives a time line for the regiment
