Scotland / Re: can anyone help me access records in scotland as i live too far away
« on: Friday 11 July 25 07:27 BST (UK)  »
Use Scotlands People it is a free site to research but if you want a particular document you need to pay for it . I have found it very useful as they had some detailed documents that include parents names occupations and even their birth places which made it very useful to confirm information and not just guess between 2 John Smith's.

Thanks Shaun J I did find Adam Russell and Elizabeth but couldnt prove the Elizabeth was Elizabeth Love but with the wedding in Gibraltar that gives some proof. i have also been following William's father John who was also in the Royal Artillery and he was discharged in 1823 but then no trace but can now assume he maybe died before 1830.
Thank you for your help

Thank you all again . I have some of that information but you have all filled some gaps. They had an interesting life. Elizabeth and James then headed to India where they both died after having 8 children. Haven’t found out when and exactly why but assume to work for the RAJ.
I have had difficulty with the Loves and the documents I have state William John Love’s father was called John and mother Elizabeth but I have struggled to find definitive proof. Hence death record for William with father called William doesn’t match the birth information I have.

Thank you both you have been incredibly helpful. Particularly the connection with the name Ann Fraquar did wonder why Elizabeth' daughter was given that name also the connection with William Williamson which came up in my research. Just now trying to get definitive birth of Elizabeth (his daughter which I know was in Ireland and where she went once her parents died. have one census of her in Aberdeen with a Grandmother but cant confirm.

My Great Great Grandfather William John Love 1823 - was in the British Royal Artillery but I can not find his death which was prior to 1868. Where might I search (have tried the usual sites eg Ancestory etc unsure if he died in a military Conflict. He was based at the Woolwich Arsenal in London.

Australia Lookups completed / Re: Ship Passenger list look up
« on: Monday 17 June 24 05:30 BST (UK)  »
Hello everyone
I am trying to find when a Richard Burgess arrived in Australia (from information I have it is probably between 1850-60) and from where he came. I have checked many passengers lists but as yet have been unable to find him.
