    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Author: gpetrin169 Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.baker/15001.1/mb.ashx Message Board Post: By the "Buffs", I assume you mean the 1st Battalion of the 3rd Regiment of Foot, East Kent who fought at Plattsburg in Sept. 1814. You might want to contact the regimental historian or museum (you can google it) or read a regimental history to learn more about the movement of this regiment. Unfortunately, all the paylists are in National Archives in London England. But sometimes, some stuff is found in Museum and Archives hers. There are very good resource in the Norfolk GENUKI. Quite a few of the parish register have been indexed and are searchable. In addition, original registers for Norfolk are browsable online at familysearch.org. I have been quite successful with another soldier from Norfolk, but he was a Chelsea Pensioner which made it easier. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
