just wondering do you know if the army completed census at that time?

the only reason i ask is that William would have been in the 36th regiment on the 1841 and the 1851 census.

[rosie99]

I think the military if abroad are only on later census

that no good....

on Williams record it states that he was in North America for 3 years and then Ionian Islands for 4 years is that something we can use?

if i have the right regiment,

the regiment was moved to North America in 1838
Ionian Islands 1847

This is from Wikipedia, the regiments movements.

The regiment was at Barbados until 1833 when it moved to Antigua;[41] it transferred St Lucia in 1835 and back to Barbados in 1837.[42] It then moved on to North America arriving in Nova Scotia in 1838 and New Brunswick in 1839[43] before returning to Ireland in 1842.[44] The regiment moved to Northern England in 1845; a second or reserve battalion was formed at Weedon Bec on 28 November 1846.[45] It was posted back to the United States of the Ionian Islands in 1847: both battalions were stationed there during an insurgency. The reserve battalion was absorbed by the 1st Battalion in April 1850.[46]

In 1851 the regiment returned to Barbados before moving on to Trinidad in 1852.[47] In 1853 it returned to Barbados

might be a trace on him in Ireland or Northern England?

You would be better asking on the military boards about that.
