The death date is not at all clear (NB the "Aldershot" bit relates to the entry above)

Hi all, commented on another similar thread as well tonight... William Carroll 586 is my GGG grandfather.  Might be worth mentioning though that I came across another WC in the same regiment when I was searching through the muster rolls at Kew a few years back.  Their serviced seemed to overlap and I wondered if it was father and son... Sadly I lost the photos I took of the rolls when I accidentally machine washed my phone before downloading them...

From reading the other thread I now know that he was born in Ireland in 1821!  He married Ann sometime after 1841 (as she is not with him in the 1841 census) and they had four children.  Mary Ann born 1849 in Dublin, Emily born 1851 in Canterbury, William born 1853 in Hounslow and Ellen born in 1856.  William died in 1860 in India.  Ann and the children arrived in India shortly after he died.  She returned to, probably Ireland, with Mary Ann and left the three younger children in a military orphanage school. I am descended from son William born 1853...

I go and get this right yet!
William Carrol and Arabella Purcell are my ggg grandparents.
William born 1821 had a sister Isabella (that's all I've found so far) born circa 1822 Ireland and she married John Kieley.  I am happy to share information and various certificates if you would like them.

Oh thanks so much, I would love to share info. Was Arabella maybe his first wife or William born 1821’s mother?  Is there a way of private messaging on here so that we can share privately?  I’ve been on this trail for years but new to this group?  Thanks, Linley in Perth, W Australia
