Trying to find Oliver

I am trying to find the parents and siblings of William Oliver born abt 1857 in Whaddon, Cambs. He joined the Norfolk Regiment (Army) and in 1881 was listed at Gorleston Barracks as a Private. In 1890 he married Lily Harriet Elizabeth Browne, born Norwich, Norfolk, and was living at Brittania Barracks, Norwich. He had three sons. Can anyone add any further information as I have hit a huge brickwall concerning these individuals who are my great grandparents!
