There is a Robert Forth , born about 1858 in Middlesborough , listed as a military deserter in 1876:

Robert Forth
18
Middlesbro
deserted 29 Jan 1876 from Shorncliffe
Reg no 1836
12th Lancers

I can't see any other military records for this man. The above transcript is taken from a record available on Fold3 , to which I do not have access.

Fold3 is an offshoot of Ancestry and requires a separate subscription.  Sometimes the records on there can be found on F M P
