Sue on every census 1841-1891, she says she was born in Portugal, so I'm pretty sure she would have been. Thanks for looking though :-D |

According to Elizabeth's death notice on FMP she was 89 yrs old,which makes her born any month after end of March 1811 til Dec 1811. |

I have her in the 1841 Dizzi, and know all her children's names, and there's only one of them with a middle name, and that's a girl, who's middle name is Elizabeth ! |

I'm ploughing through all your suggestions, thank you :-D I realise now that Elizabeth wasn't necessarily born to a father who was in the army, thanks for all other suggestions. |

You could try searching the Army Births on FMP but they are by no means complete. |

I had forgotten that the BAOR had changed its acronym to BFG. In any case the thread is not really about modern pongos more about long ago sprogs. |

Rollo, You say "The right to have wives and children with them was "NOT" restricted to officers but also extended to warrant officers and other ranks who had signed up for 7 years or more" |

My 3x g grandfather was born in France in 1817. I found his baptism in the Army chaplains records, but had a real problem finding his marriage. After about 20 years of wondering why his brother had the 2nd christian name of Wood, it turned out that his mothers maiden name was DuBois. Obvious really. I eventually, with much help from a couple of cousins, got a copy of the entry of their marriage in 1816. |
