Ok so I tried looking for muster rolls in the National Archives and that website has beaten me hands down. I have read the guides and clicked links and cannot find a thing, I just go around in circles. Start at 1853, I cant even find it yet alone look through a list. I live in Germany and only have access to records online.
Can anybody help please.

Armed Forces / Patrick Butler & 84th
« on: Monday 26 August 13 08:35 BST (UK)  »
HI
I need help finding Patrick Butler army records enlisted in the 84th please
I have 2 births found in the British Nationals Armed Forces Births listed with the 84th.
Butler Ellen, 84th foot, Secunderabad, Indian Subcontinent, 1848 (certificate: father Patrick, Mother Honorah)
Butler Emilia, 84th foot, Trichinopoly, Indian Subcontinent, 1853 (familysearch: father Patrick, mother Honora)
I have also found potentially 5 other Butler births with the 84th regiment in India & Burma (1844-56) and equally marriages for them all in India & Burma (1861-69).
-
also another thought, if he wasn't in the army what other job could he have and be moving around with the 84th to have his children registered with them?
Any help gratefully appreciated

Susan, thank you for your reply, I have his records etc and was trying to put a face to the name.

Ken, thank you, you are so right. On closer inspection of his records 65 was a transcription error on my part from the hand writing. It was indeed the 60th Reg. of Royal Rifles he was in, so sorry.

Any ideas on the uniform?

Im trying to find out what regiment this uniform is.
The only clue I can see is the braid on the cuff with a single loop. (no other information about the photo is available to me) I have one ancestor that was in the army, 3rd Battalion 65th Reg. of Royal Rifles (1852-1869). Could this be him?
