I'm a descendent of samuel william kilpatick from the 64th regiment. he had 2 sons  William & Samuel.
william left for australia on 30th Oct 1837, as a gardener, with his wife mary. but that's all I know.

were did they live in Ireland.

Do you know which religion (if any)
Have you any idea as to which county or part of Ireland they were from.
The shipping record may give some clues.

Parish records will be online sometime in the near future. 

The dates are prior to Civil registration 1864
Non Roman Catholic marriages were registered from 1845

Is there a typo in the surname eg Kilpatrick ?

[ShaunJ]

Any idea of a birth year ?

There has been a previous thread on this chap I think

FindMyPast has an army record for Colour Sergeant Samuel Kilpatrick of 64th regiment born circa 1777

"Erin's Sons: Irish Arrivals in Atlantic Canada, 1761-1853" on Google Books has a 64th Regiment mention of "Colour Sergeant Samuel William Kilpatrick married Bridget Molony" as a note against the death of a Corporal Samuel Kilpatrick in 1800 http://tinyurl.com/lvb9uqm

Per the army record Samuel Kilpatrick was born in Lisburn. Joined 64th regiment 4 February 1800 aged 23.  Colour Sergeant, discharged 1817.

Looking at some more army records, it transpires that there were two Samuel Kilpatricks, both weavers aged around 20, who enlisted in 64th Regiment in Belfast in February 1800. One is our man from Lisburn who became a Colour Sergeant, the other is the one from Tillisk who died in service in Canada in 1815.
