am interest in the two osbornes who are registered on the trafalgar roll
one is william osborne carpenter on the REVENGE at trafalgar also present at the 1st june engagenent .
the second is alsoa william osborne also a carpenter on the SWIFTSURE my enquirery is how to find out where they came from before they went into the navy and possibly went after leaving
dennis         penzance

I take it by Trafalgar roll you must mean the Naval General Service medal roll?

My copy of the roll confirms both.
William Osborne, Carpenter's Crew HMS Swiftsure

William Osborne, Carpenter's Crew HMS Revenge (a landsman on HMS Impregnable on 1 June 1794)

The fact they both appear on the roll means they were both still alive in 1847 when the medal was issued to surviving veterans.

Here's one from TNA as well,
