Hi my name was Penelope Hearsey before I was married my father was called Lionel Doughlas Hearsey as was his his father who was a Bengal Lancer in Bengal . Mt Dad lived out there with his too brother John Hearsey and Richard, but came back to England for schooling . My Grandmother came back to Sussex but my Grandfather stayed out in India . They had a house in Haripor and land , they divorced as he had an affair with my Dads youngest brother's Iierh not sure how to spelt it but his nanny . My dad told me he had the picture of General Sir John Hearsey in their home in Sussex ,I went to see it with him in the British Museum, in London and various swords and documents . I have often wondered what happened to my Grandfather as his was not spoken about , due to the shame 
Sadly my Dad passed away 2013 at 93 , but I know so much about his life and my Grandmother Dorothy . We have Indian blood as 4 Generations back a Hearsey married an Indian Princess. This news shocked my father but I knew by my coloring dark small build this could be right . All my family were in the Army and went to the same Boys boarding school . I have the book of the four Generation of the Hearsey's I have invites to Christmas diner at the palace of Bengal and who was invited and what the day events was for the day . Shooting from a Rolls Royce . When I can afford to investigate more I will find out what happened to Lionel Doughlas Hearsey in India . He did have two other brothers , who were out in India and in the Army .my Dads brother have the Theophiolas as his second name ,a family name .They had two Houses up in the high ground and lower in the summer , The family had an Elephant who was frightend of dead birds ,i have photos out in India and on Horse back .
