Please would it be possible for you to do a look for James Carpenter. I do not know any regiment but I do know from another family member he sailed to the Crimea in 1855. He also went to India and China, returning to the UK in 1862.

On an anncouncement for his daughters marriage he says he is RSM James Carpenter. He came from Hessenford in Cornwall if that is any help.
Thanks
Lynda

Hi Annie/  Afraid I know very little about him. That is really   what I'm trying to find. His date and place of birth etc has alluded me. I have many Williams in Devon at the time but I cant pinpoint him - Jack
