Hi Jim
this is the national Archives website if he was a soldier ............

http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/records/looking-for-person/britisharmyofficerbefore1913.htm?WT.lp=rg-3140
copy and paste the whole address and take a look here, if you find what your looking for it costs £2 to download!
if he was a civilian then you may find him here, these were convicts sent to Australia http://www.convictrecords.com.au/
