Hipwood William

proper brummie kid
I know it is a different county, but not too far away. Can anyone direct me to where I could find a William Hipwood born 1803?? In Wolverhampton. I do not know his parents, but I know he emigrated to Australia in 1832 and is listed on the ships passenger list as a pensioner soldier. I know most of his history since then as I am a direct descendant on my mothers side but have drawn a blank in England. I have tried all the usual haunts ...find my past, ancestry, etc but it no avail. Any assistance or direction would be greatly appreciated.
Kind Regards,

Clarkie,thanks for that info, may now make a start on my dads moms side of the family, who were from Wolverhampton, but proving difficult to trace.
