http://www.monmouthcastlemuseum-archives.org.uk/enlistments.php
Also have a look at the Waterloo Medal Rolls on Find My Past.
I have found a persistently missing ggg grandfather John Hughes, sailmaker of Monmouth, who for a long time I imagined evading me by sailing up and down the Wye on a trow and now I know went for a soldier.

Good luck

Joss

Does a list exist for the Forest of Dean (Gloucestershire)?

If a list does exist where am I likely to find it as I have a member of my family who is missing from his parish betweem 1809 and 1825.
