Adolphus Griegson/Grigson 50th(Queens Own) Regt. of Foot

[anglostark]

Just a wee update.

I now have a copy of Adolphus Henry Grigson and Catherine Burke's marriage cert.

They were married on the 18th April 1849 at the parish church in the parish of St. James, Dover, Kent.

Adolphus's father is William John Grigson and Catherine's father is Edmund Burke a sergeant of the 4th Regiment.
I have had a look on FindMyPast for Edmund Burke's service records but haven't been able to find anything that matches him. Any help on this would be appreciated

Note : The subject of the Adolphus Grigson is also being discussed on the Northamptonshire forum.

I think I may have found a brother for Catherine Burke.

On the 1851 Census that Catherine and Adolphus are residing at Ashton Barracks, there is also a Edmund Burke, Private, musician in regimental band. Est year of birth 1833 and born at Chatham, Kent. Which is where Catherine was born abt 1831.

Might just be a coincidence but it does look promising
