Title: Portsmouth Marines 1854. BILES/BYLES
Post by: showers on Sunday 30 October 05 18:51 GMT (UK)
I am in need for more information concerning WILLIAM  BYLES/BILES born Powerstock Dorset who enlisted for 12 years in 12 Company Portsmouth Division as a Gunner. 30/1/1854 at Beaminster Dorset then went to live in Portsmouth. His trade was a Blacksmith before he enlisted. He married Ellen Lampen Griffiths and 1901 census shows her to be a widow?. Are  there any descendants in Portsmouth who can tell me when he died and where.  Also his Son FRED who was married to Emily Maud Saunders. Believe they had a son born 1903 William Fred.       Showers
