Hi Kev,

Could you look to see if there is a Stephen Leatham (Letham) listed in any of them.
I know he was a soldier in the 1st Royals based in Aberdeen in 1850 and is later listed as deceased as a serg in the 1st Royals in 1869, As i cant find a death registration at his home I think he may have been KIA somewhere??

McAnaw/McInaw/McNay/ Finn/ Eliott
Pollock / Hyslop/ Elder/ Renfrew/ Hart/ Brydon

Motherwell / Anderson / Tradeston / Govan/ Bridgegate/ Aberdeen / Old Machar/ Lanarkshire/ Leadhills/ Penpont/ Muirkirk

Hello Kev,

I would be very grateful if you could please look up for MURRAY [I suspect Patrick, Philip or Joseph] probably aged in his mid-30s in the 87th regiment who were in the Crimea in 1854.

Many thanks,

Josey

Hi

We are trying to trace John Binnie Wallace born circa 1836, we believe he fought in the Crimean War.  It would be useful if you could look him up for us.


Thank you, Regards Lin

Lawrence Leddy/Liddy born in the 1820's in County Cavan , lived in Stockport

Thank you ,
Linden

I'd also appreciate a look up for someone who went missing between the 1851 and 1861 censuses - no death reg to be found. It's possible that he joined up but I'm afraid I've no idea of what regiment that would entail.

His name is George Bishop born about 1818 and from East Yorkshire.

Thanks,
Jill

Hello Kev

Bit of a long shot, but I wonder if you can find any reference to John Roberts of the 38th Foot?  All I know is that he was in Halifax, Nova Scotia, with the regiment in 1850/51 when his daughter was born.  Thanks.
