Day: 14; Month: Jul; Year: 1838; Forename: William; Surname: BULL; Corps: 35th Foot; Age years: 18; Trade: Labourer; Origin: Longford, Derbyshire; Summary: 35th Foot; 18; Longford; Derby; Labourer; 14 Jul 1838

Extracted from list of Deserters 1828-1840 in The Police Gazette - Deserters

Desertion was not uncommon. When a soldier deserted, his description was published in “Hue and Cry” a newspaper circulated to Justices of the Peace, parish constables and later police forces. This subsequently became the “Police Gazette” and was published 2-3 times a week. Details of those named in the Police Gazette 1828-1840 have been published by M&LFHS * but for other periods a tedious search may be necessary. If a desertion date is identified from a regimental muster book, a search of subsequent issues of the Police Gazette may be worthwhile. The details published mirror those in the description books and are invaluable where the latter have been lost.)

     It has not been possible to obtain any further details as to his joining the Regiment, of his Punishment or Discharge from the Regiment. This Service Record has not survived, however, please note that it appears that William re-enlisted in the Regiment at Burton Upon Trent in July 1844.³

     In between July 1844 and March 1849 William Bull served with the 35th. Regiment of Foot.William was Medically discharged from the Regiment on 2 March 1849 at the Wellington Barracks, Mullingar, Ireland.
The Records consist of 8 pages of information, detailing his joining the Regiment at Burton, Staffordshire on 18 July 1844 to his discharge.
He served for 4 years and 228 days, no mention is made of any previous service in the Army. It remains 'very probable' that he was one and the same who was listed in the Police Gazette entry of Deserters in 1838, how this could have happened is not known!⁴

     The U.K.Census of 30 March 1851 listed him as a Brother in Law of the Head of Household - Charles Allen, at 25 Willow Row, Derby, Derbyshire, who is recorded as -

     From William Bull's discharge papers from the 35th Foot for medical reasons, it is recorded that he had paralysis (muscular weakness?) in both legs which was attributed to the weather and the demands of the job. He had contracted smallpox.
"You may know that arthritis and osteomyelitis were not infrequent long term complications. Although the M.O. didn't make that connection it would have to be my starting point. With a 30 - 35 percent death rate he was lucky to survive." - Sue Massen (by email.)
