Hi Mark

I  also have the same guy u mentioned coming out of Netley Hospital. I have some docs when he was discharged from the 74th 108th Regiment. Due to him being unfit with chest pains. My question is .. Is this the same guy who died 1869?? Mayby the answer lies with in Barnhill ?

Cheers

Hello from Australia

I am looking for wee help!
I have a John Nelson  whom I believe I have the right one. I have John Nelson death cert he died 1869 at Barnhill Poorhouse. He was 49yrs old b 1820. He was formally a soldier. This maybe the lost Grandfather I am looking for.  If this is the same man he was in India 74th Regt. Born in Paisley where joined the Regt. in 1842. His wife Margaret nee Renwick died in 1866 in India. In the 1871 census 2 of his kids were with the Finlay family , I have no idea if they are connected.  Any information from the Barnhill Workhouse will be great.

Thank you

You beauty! thats him in the 1871 census .. she was 14yrs old when they married in India .. I have the birth cert. He was in India for few years and they had kids there then they went back to Scotland and came to Australia in 1880. Does the census say his birth place?
