Napoleonic Wars (General)

Quite a few FOD men joined the Mon Militia and transferred into regular regiments and went off to the Napoleonic Wars, so you might like to check this site which has Militia Enlistments -

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
