Nothing showing for marriage, births of children, burial in Quebec, Canada, Vital and Church Records (Drouin Collection), 1621-1968 for James Sisk.

Sandra
Sandra should I post on the Army section as I don't have any details of places James was posted to?

Sandra I have since found the following records & am left wondering if James Sisk was ever in Canada?

UK British Army Muster Books & Pay Lists 1812-1817
1. Sgt James Sisk from CLoyne Co Cork 25/12/1813 to 24/3/1814  Winchester Depot
2. 25/12/1816 to 24 March 1817 Southern Ireland Depot stationed Waterford to Cork
3. 25 March 1817 to 24 June 1817 Southern Ireland Depot Cork to Clonmel States Wife Mary Sisk
    1 child age 2yr 6months Interestingly on this record there is also a Thomas Hackett with wife
    Elizabeth 1 child 2yrs 6months. This Thomas Hackett was also on my original P ost with James 
    enlisting in 1813 October for the Canada british force.

There is a Gap from 24th March 1814 to December 1816 so maybe he was in Canada at this time from Winchester.  What are your views?

Seems he signed up Clonmel 19 October 1815 - which took him to Canada.  Looks as if he then transferred back
