Title: Death/burial record
Post by: Teek10 on Saturday 22 August 15 16:39 BST (UK)

I have a relative John Binns, who was in HM 53rd Shropshire regiment and served in India,1807 to 1813. I have his service records etc,but have just discovered his wife,Mary, who went with him to India,died in Simons Town Cape of Good Hope in 1814. They were presumably on their way back to England.
I'm looking for any records of her death or burial in Simons Town,if anyone could help please.
Thanks
  Trevor
