I found a possible for my John Galway in the new records - date of birth ? I bought some credits to view the images, looked at them all, still couldn't work out if it's my John because although he was born in Antrim around the right time, he was discharged in 1869 for sun stroke in India and it said he wouldn't ever be fit to rejoin the army and was going back to Ireland. My John went back to Ireland from India about that time, but he served as a sergeant at Curragh Camp, Kildare, until 1879 or later. There didn't seem to be any info on the records about whether he was married, but I was going to save the images to look through later and try to find any more info I had missed - but the browser crashed when I was trying to save the image and now findmypast won't let me look at them again without buying more credits! Bother!
