Some records are on Find my Past, also on GR Plus The National Archives, although some of records from the Nat Archives have been put on FMP

If you do not subscribe to FMP why not give some details of the person you are seeking

Thank You George
My query is for a Thomas McGrath.On his son's birth certificate in 1866 he was a pensioner of the 19th Hussars.I wondered if there was a list available for this regiment ?

You wouldn't find it on the National Archives site. It will be on FMP, if it has survived, but, as Gins says, more information is needed to search.
