Hello ; Bon jour ! I am looking for information about a James CAMERON of 26th of Foot , who d at Quebec March 1800. He was buried by Bishop Mountain at the Garrison Cathedral Church. I have signed, authenticated copy of the registry. His widow , Mary and daughter Ann were listed as survivors. A month later a Charles CAMERON was discharged from the same regiment, no reason given. He had been enlisted as a Drummer Boy at age 7 in 1790. He went to Toronto and I have information from :"Toronto Landmarks ". indicating that Charles, Mary and Ann were sponsors at each other's marriages and baptisms. I have all information from then to present day. I am trying to establish whether Charles was on any kind of census showing if he had lived in Quebec before age 7. He enlisted in Quebec( not known if City or Province). I would very much appreciate any effort to resolve this matter , Delphine Cameron Large Victoria, B.C.

Hi Delphine; I checked in the 1792, 1795, 1798, 1805, 1806 censuses in Quebec City (BANQ=Bibliotheque & Archives Nationales du Québec on the Internet) and could not find any Charles, or Mrs. James Cameron. There were an Andrew, a Robert and a "Monsieur" Cameron, but none were soldiers or former soldiers.
