I found his attestation document there. He was at Anglesea barracks in Portsea in the 1861 census, so the regiment must have gone to the Cape sometime after that date. I found the regiment's broad movements on another site, only the years, nothing more specific. regards, Barry ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to SOUTH-AFRICA-CAPE-TOWN-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message
