Hello,
Just trying to fill out some side lines on my tree....
Anthony Proudlock, son of John and Mary Ann nee Jackson, born 1876 Trimdon, Durham, England. Last found trying to desert from the 2nd Battalion Gordon Highlanders in Ireland summer of 1892, he was discharged to a military escort on 13 July 1891. Then I loose him.
Would he have stayed in the army or been discharged once he served his sentence? I am afraid I am not very knowledgeable about military matters

I can't find him in 1901/1911 England or Ireland census, or a death registration in England/Wales.
(Interestingly his nephew Arthur Butterfield b. 1918 also joined the same regiment and was captured by the Japanese in Singapore. The Butterfield family is one of my main interests)
Grateful for any help.
