I need some help with this. I believe Elizabeth's father was in the 41st Regiment which was stationed in Ireland from about 1816-1820. She was born in Dublin in 1817. The family were not RC but I don't think they were CofI either. As her father was in the Army are there any particular places to look for information?

If the family were some other denomination besides RC or CofI (which was equivalent to CofE) it going to make it much more difficult to find a possible baptism for Elizabeth. Few of the records for other denominations are available online.

For queries on military matters you would probably be best posting a question on the relevant section forum here on RootChat - see : Armed Forces
