First of all sorry for my delay in replying. I had got so caught up in doing both sides of my family history I had to step back and take a break from it just to come back with a fresh look.

 Secondly thank-you Ian in your time in finding what looks like my Grandfathers sister.
I have heard that there were many siblings of his but until now she is the only one I have come across.

The only major problem I have in this search is that I don;t know where my Grandfather was born or when her actually moved to India.

I contacted the British Library and it has produced information that confirms he did actually work on the railways there.


Thank-you again for all of your help.

Thank-you for your time Jorose.

Wow, it seems they went back after 2 years. I didn't see that record come up on my search with the Moving Here webpage.  I guessed that they had come to stay permanently.

I think you are right that it must be an error with his age, I thought he seemed to old compared to his wife.
Thank-you again so much - lets hope I can find something else with this new information.

Thank-you again Jorose

Thank-you for your welcome and reply.

The people I have mentioned so far are no longer alive.
I don't know where or when my Grandfather was born. This is why i am guessing he is born in India, as I have found his marriage and death records and not his birth. ( I won't place his name in case it is too close to living relatives~ I'm not sure)

His Father is Lancelot King and the birth date given in the ship's record ( that returned to the UK 1955) is 30.7.57 and his wifes name is Gladys King.

they possibly have a daughter Audery Edith King.
I have tried to search the names but seem to be going wrong somewhere.

thank-you again.

Hello everyone.

I was wondering if anyone could help me, I have been searching for my Great Grandfathers relatives.
From what I have heard when I was younger that my Grandfather was born in India, but got married and recently passed away here in the UK

I have  a Marriage certifcate which mentions his Father was a 'loco foreman'

Using the site Moving here, there is a record of my Great Grandfather coming back to stay here in the UK in 1955.(which gives me some confusion on his Birth date) But my Grandfather was married here 1949.
I don't seem to find a record of when my grandad came back.
I am looked on the various sites and cannot find anything to do with my Great Grandfather. Lancelot King.
I think I may have found his daughter who got married in India, but form what I have heard there were many children and I cannot find anyone.

I am just getting so lost,
 ???
Thank-you for your time.
